What happen to the laws protecting us from "armed" robbers ? My only regret is the other guy didn't get capped too.
The books are full of laws that are not even slightly inforced. And the ones that are become a joke. Even murderers get out on bail and kill again. Same with most criminals and they know it so for them, why not. Due to the ecomomy and the increase in coin stores, those type of robberies will escalate continuously. Also, more robberies of coin dealers at coin shows, flea markets, etc. One of the worst parts of all these type of robberies after the danger to the ones robbed is what happens to the coins. Most criminals are not Numismatist and usually just spend the coins as what they are, money. They are not about to try selling them when a coin counting machine in a bank or store will just give them currency for those coins.
