You can shoot the victim in self defense, dear bystanders. While you may technically be able to shoot the bully in self defense under certain conditions... lol just try it out sometime.
I would rather the prick I can shoot be armed, than a blob bully I can't shoot have the power to disarm and cage me in order to have the power to ensure that I as the bystander never have to shoot the victim in self defense. The deal is rotten, and you should quiet quit your civic duties!
