Then you won't get your criminal profit-making task done will you?

Shoot first only works if you will still have time to do what you came to
do after you make those very loud distinctive gunshot sounds. In most cases,

Criminals are basically bullies and cowards. They don't do things that
they think will get them injured or killed.
