I have a question I've been pondering, and I thought I'd see what you guys think about this.
Through military history, the losers in a fight usually get stripped of their gear. Maybe not so much through the last few centuries, but for most of human history. So here's a scenario: you have been assaulted by a thug in an alley. Because of your superior fighting skills, or just plain luck, you are victorious. The thug is either dead or unconscious, but no one else has showed up yet. Then, you notice that the guy had a Glock tucked in his jacket pocket, which, for some unknown reason, he did not pull. Or maybe he did pull it, but was unable to use it. Or used it ineffectivly. Whatever. Does this weapon now become 'spoils of war', forfeited to you, the victor? Or in other words, would you take it? Any thoughts?
