Poll: Acceptable illegal gun use?

[Conza]

Ok, this is odd, I'm surprised I'm in the minority here.

Someone comes in, holds someone hostage, or what have you, then someone else comes in and shoots the man with the illegal gun, having saved the say, he's now charged with carrying a firearm illegally? That's just plain stupid. There's no evidence to suggest the man with the gun would've had or if he did, use the gun without the instigator causing the problem, by him having the gun he potentially saved lives, let him go, he did nothing wrong.

Just had an weird thought today and wanted some opinions on it. Lets say someone takes a gun and makes like threats and fires some shots in like an airport or something where having any sort of weapon is absolutely illegal. Now lets say another guy comes in an uses his own illegal weapon to apprehend the other guy. Should this guy be charged or not?

Depends, did he have the weapon to begin with, or did he bring it in response to the shooter. IF he had it before the other guy started shooting, charge him. If he brought it in because he was aware of the shooter and trying to stop him, then don't charge him.
