Idk man being robbed at gunpoint kinda sucks whether you give up your wallet or not.

Whether the gun is used to rob you by shooting you before taking your wallet, or threatening people so they have no choice but to hand you your wallet or get shot, in either case the gun was used to rob you.

So then why exaggerate or make stuff up? Just stick to the facts.

It was neither exaggerated, nor made up. You’re just hopelessly obtuse.

Or maybe I English better because I know the difference between 'are using' and 'could use'.

They are using it, as I’ve explained to you. You’re just a lil slow on the uptake

From the story, they are not. No need to be an asshole. From the story, quote where this has happened. Spoiler: It hasn't.

From the story, they are. I’ve explained this to you, not going to again.
