UPPER DARBY, Pa. - As police in Upper Darby, Pa., search for more young people involved in last week's flash mob, more adults are thinking about arming themselves with guns.
People are talking about how afraid they are of being caught in the path one of these flash mobs while they're out minding their own business, and they want to be ready.
Law enforcement officials say it's a nightmare in the making because ordinary, private citizens are getting gun permits.
"We have people now that are fearful and carrying guns because of children. How sad is that?" Upper Darby police Captain George Rhoades said.
He said it's all legal.
"It's all self-defense," Rhoades said.
He says about 10 to 20 applications are processed every week in Upper Darby.
Rhoades says with that many people "carrying" and the violent actions of these flash mobs, the worst is bound to happen.
"Now we have this mentality, 'I'm not going to retreat. I'm not going to call 9-1-1. I'm going to be a vigilante and take care of the problem myself,'" he said.
That means flash mob children could be dead, and the would-be victims may have the right, but Rhoades is appealing to everybody to think twice.

They are not children, they are racist black monsters seeking to seriously hurt, maim or kill decent white folks for no good reason.
Shoot them all.
Let’s get Sharpton and Jackson involved!! Such actions cannot be tolerated. We cannot have law abiding citizens arming themselves to protect them and their families from mobs of savages. It just cannot be allowed!!! I am sure those two race baiters will get all the media help they need from the liberal, progressive, state-run, lame-stream media.
What do you expect in Pennsylvania. Buncha gun clingers. Next thing you know they’ll be clinging to a bible. Oh noes.
“We have people now that are fearful and carrying guns because of children. How sad is that?”
Well, look how so many are raised (or NOT raised) for cripes sake, they are raised (by single or working moms alone) taught basic morals (rap and no church) and schooled (by demons) what did you expect?
When some Joe the every day citizen drops one or two Flash Mob thugs, the flash mobs will be history.
A Trash Mob is just a platoon sized element that hasn’t been issued uniforms and weapons...yet.
When I was young, looters were shot on sight. Right there. No questions asked. End of story.
And you could walk the streets at night, too.
Well said in every way. Absolutely correct. Spot on. Nail...hammer. And so forth...
He means racist something for nothing Obama voting Scumbags will be hurt or worse,I say good let the fun begin!
Taser, bean-bag gun, rubber bullets — there are lots of non-lethal options.
If a few idiots, and we all know that the idiots consist mainly of young blacks, get ventilated, then they will reconsider where they go to riot, steal, and assault people.
Bull**** !! these "children" are violent thugs
these is a good reason this did not take off in the US http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_slapping
Many people in this part of the country carry flash suppressors.
The attitude toward those “children” is astounding. It’s like thinking of an 8 month old, 90 pound, rabid, attack trained German Shepard as a “puppy.” Those “kids” are dangerous, murderous juvenile criminals, not “children.” The sooner a few get terminal lead poisoning, the better.
How DARE people protect themselves against rioting black teens!
None of those produce lasting results. None of those will deter the pack.
The worst has already happened in that these wolf packs have already killed innocent people for no other reason than the color of their skin
"Now we have this mentality, 'I'm not going to retreat. I'm not going to call 9-1-1. I'm going to be a vigilante and take care of the problem myself,'" he said.
If the police were taking care of the problem, then we wouldn't have a problem, and that's the problem.
A teenager will kill you just as dead as an adult. I saw that hundreds of times when I was working in DC.
"We have people now that are fearful and carrying guns because of children. How sad is that?"Extremely sad, Captain, as a matter of fact. I find it sad that these "children" are behaving in such a way as to make law-abiding people become fearful, reasonably so, of their actions.
