Shooting at walmart

[virginia mountainman]

"It appears to be an armed robbery that went badly for the suspect because he picked an armed customer," said Sgt. James Wielgus.

1. Ya know, the one thing I hate is stupid crooks! his one sure was!

Too young to know what he could be charged with and what the penalty could be.

2. "Fortunately for the victim, he had a license to carry a firearm".

"He was definitely the wrong person to chose, for the ah, suspect to pick on." LMFAO Ha Ha Ha. Don't you just love the honesty that street cops will give?

I love it how the cop says "He picked on the wrong person."

3. I'm sure we will hear from the "OMFG, what if he hit an innocent bystander..." crowd any minute now.

None of whom ever offer their services to ensure someone elses security.

Go figure.

Good job for the armed Citizen, TFB for the armed criminal.

P.S. "Licence? What is this 'licence' you speak of?", says the Vermonter currently residing in Arizona. "We don't need no steenkin' licence..."

5. Ya know

That statement is always used against the VICTIM who defends himself/herself, NEVER toward the armed bad guy (who simply doesn't care if he/she hits an innocent bystander).

6. The bad guys are "professionals"

They are supposed to have guns. Gun laws are only meant to disarm people who obey the law. Didn't you know if your plebian hide were worth protecting you'd either have a security detail supplied to you at public expense like the Demented Dwarf, Daley in Chicago, or live in a gated community and be rich enough to hire your own bodyguards. True elites needn't sully their hands with oily steel. They think Manual Labor is the guy who mows their yard.

7. You are aware that this story is exactly two years old, right?

8. So what exactly? Does that make it non relevant the issue of

firearms being used to stop crime or protect the innocent?
