I don't really understand how this could in anyway be controversial. A man, armed with a legal weapon, with police training, intervened in a robbery. I personally don't even think all those definitive positives needed to exist for this to still be an interaction without cause for controversy.
In some ways, I wish he had demanded to disarm the man before allowing him to leave. Keep up the good work!

Very good video with excellent details on what he's been through and what he's capable of. i agree with jon santee, i also have my ccw in iowa and i carry my sig .40cal about 90% of the time everywhere i go due to the fact i have had the training since i was 7 till current along with 6 years in service. plain and simple the world and people have changed and not necessarily for the greater good side either. This video just goes to show you that with the proper training and discipline the 2nd Amendment shall always been enforced and exercised under the right circumstances.
