Nothing remarkable about this story, it's the comments that shock ya.

Armed Robber shot

Very clearly, people in this city are going to shoot you if you try to take something from them you are not supposed to have.  And no one is going to care!

The mindset is was not like this 5 years ago but there has clearly been a shift and I am part of it.

We are just not going to be robbed and raped or any other damned thing.  It smacks of Pluto in Capricorn. Do the right thing, or die.

I realize this is drastic but read the comment why don't ya? Those are people talking - people who READ NEWS.

Interesting.

I consider myself very spiritual, fair, moral, blah..blah...blah....

...but I wouldn't hesitate one bit to kill someone threatening me and my family as if we owed them something.

me neither

sorry for my typing.... I am zoning on the couch and there's a stupid movie on TV & I'm watching it. "Meteor" about  meteor about to crash into earth LOL. they just showed a scene where people are in a small town store, lining up for water and to buy food.

yuppie jerk says he isn't waiting anymore so he's taking his water and leaving (w/o paying). so a local gun-toting redneck guy tells him to stop stealing & knocks him out and points his rifle at him. 

just then the sheriff comes in and tells the redneck guy to knock it off and tells the redneck guy to take the robber guy to the hospital and recommends the robber guy press charges against the redneck guy.

the sheriff takes the guy's and friend's guns and the crowd of people burst into applause!!! i'm like wtf and burst out laughing.

contrite formerly armed redneck just joined the rest of the people in a shelter

They id'ed the armed robber:

"Daniels has an extensive arrest record going back to 1986..."

Almost 25 years of messing with people. I bet it was a Saturn transit, the buck stops here.

not a kid then. should know better x 10, then.

Karma - what a killer!!!
