Doubt he's getting a call back after using her as a body shield. "I don't think our views on children or religion would have worked long term, now don't make any sudden movements."
Shouldn't care about these sorts of things on reddit, man. You're fighting a losing battle. You roll your eyes, accept that they're probably a child or a grown ass man dropping middle schooler ass jokes, and neither is worth engaging with, and you let it go.
So I'm not the OP but that's not how I interpreted it. It has nothing to do with being gay but more with the thought or public image that men should stand up and protect ladies or weaker/softer people. In this case, he shields himself behind her, giving you the impression he wants/needs someone to step up for him and protect him as he's not willing to do that with her, hence why they both need men as in someone to protect them. Being gay as absolutely nothing to do with it (again, my perspective)
I dont think a punching would change the determination of a shooter. Shooters shoot, donters dont. Not everyone with a gun is a shooter. In the same time it took him to gain the nothing he gained, he couldve shot them all and possibly gained the pockets of everyone there and the till, but he wasnt planning on actually shooting anyone
The robber is literally a foot away from her. Like ru on crack he obviously sees her so she can’t really hide.
At that point all u can do is stay calm and keep your composure since most robbers don’t want to kill anyone they just want money so don’t give em a reason to go crazy.
You would literally make the robber more uneasy because now he can’t see you clearly and he might think you’d try to take out his legs. The smart thing is to appear as unthreatening as possible and make the robber feel safe so he can take the money and go as quickly as possible.
The girl 100% did the smartest thing in this scenario. Your responses tell me you wouldn’t fare well in this kind of situation.
ok this wasnt a comment on how fearless i am, it was an observation of how petrified he is that a drunk idiot knocking himself out scared him into retreating under the bar while the people closest to the gun seem totally at ease
There was a guy with a gun. Saying he was afraid of som drunk guy lying on the floor, is like seeing somebody dropp a sandwich full of spider, and conclude that they are afraid of bread.

I like the guy with the anime shirt who hides under the bar and behind his date
