He didn't help though. Companies have insurance... the guards wouldn't've been shot.. It is a tragic shame.

The wonders of hindsight. He's attempted to help, and paid the price. It's nice to hear people are actually still willing to help.

Where was it said that the guards were shot? I've only seen it mentioned that he was shot in the chest.

I meant had he not have interfered it wouldn't've been a big deal... no one would have died and companies have insurance.

At Rayleigh railway station in Essex he saw a male and female security guard struggling with two men.

There is just as much chance that one of the guards would have been shot, they where struggling with the men after all.

Thats my view on things like this is someone has me at gunpoint and demands something i know is insured they can have it, yea they might shoot me anyway but theres less chance than if id fought them.
Obviously if there just there to shoot people they il do what i can to stop them but material posetions can be replaced.

That's just sensationalist crap tacked on to make the guy sound ever more heroic. Security guards are trained to comply with all demands in cases of robbery. They weren't "struggling" with the armed robbers regardless of what the article states... seriously, who "struggles" with armed assailants when it's not even your money they're after.

Companies have insurance, the security firm has insurance, this guy could've quite easily got himself and the two guards killed by his actions.

If it had been an INDIVIDUAL or group of PEOPLE being robbed, mugged, raped or whatever then fair enough, but this is not the same thing at all. The Police themselves even advise members of the public not to get involved because of the complications that can result.

Oh, were you an eye witness? You seem to know more than anyone on what happened that day.

I have a mate who works for Group 4 and as I said previously they're trained to comply with demands in case of robbery. It's as simple as that.

I didn't think the story was that interesting really and the bit about him playing cs was a bit random and ironic as the article started by saying about the press blaming video games when they were basically playing on the fact he plays cs :confused:

Whenever anyone goes crazy with a gun, the press are usually quick to blame video and computer games for the young person's violence.

The funniest thing is this thread tho

The random comments and quotes from cs.
