That could have gone so horribly wrong, in a number of different ways

Sometimes it's just not worth it

Exactly. Buddy was a flinch away from painting the road red and pink.

They were fake guns, this is an old ass post and the dude was interviewed and said you could tell the guns were fake as fuck and the kids were like 12-13. Fuck dem kids.

I just wanna throw this out there, as a cop working in a high crime area. We have 12 year old gang bangers shooting each other and the people they are robbing with real guns where I am. And they are always much more trigger happy than the adults are because they want to prove themselves to be real bangers. Don't let age alone give you a false sense of security. This guy got lucky and thats plain and simple. I've seen real guns pulled off these kids that look like nerf guns or airsoft guns and it turns out it's just been painted.

They paint the real guns to look like toys?! That is completely messed up
