Innocent customer killed in Conyers GameStop robbery

I heard they thought there might be one more suspect still loose...one recurring theme in many of the armed robberies out this way is close proximity to I-20. Nothing new there I suppose.

 

Sad and frustrating to read this news. Both the customer and the employee should have been armed with pistols and ended the thugs' careers right there.

 

Wouldn't the customer be required to only shoot each bad guy one time, or until the BG turns around, says "uncle," and apologizes for threatening the customer with a gun?

 

&& my friend asked me why I carried to GameStop the other night when I was there to pick up Black Ops at Midnight....

 

It's only going to get worse.

 

Some may take this the wrong way, but there are folks who actually prefer a life of crime.

At any rate, this is very sad. If I were the owner of a retail store all my employees would be encouraged to be armed.

 

This is why we carry at all times. We'll have a fighting chance to save our own lives, maybe others' as well.

 

Shamalama, this is why I carry a gun every where I go, even in my quiet side of Kennesaw. For you just never know when a crazy idiot will try something like this.

 

A friend at work spent 30 minutes explaining why he carries at grocery stores and other "family" locations.

I summed it up for them by saying "Crazy is unpredictable and I want to be prepared for crazy."

 

Why do people in the suburbs think that ghetto thugs from the 'hood in Atlanta cannot find them?
Predators will find prey.
If they have to borrow a car, steal a car, take MARTA, hitch a ride with buddies, or whatever--- they can and do regularly travel from Atlanta to the suburbs to commit their crimes. Happens all the time.
BOTTOM LINE: Don't let your guard down because you live in a "good" neighborhood.

 

I just hear on news talk 750 that a 3rd arrest has been made in this case.

 

Until your insurance rep pointed out your increased rates. I think a "don't ask, don't tell" policy is called for in this instance.

 

Insurance rates that I believe you would have justification to pay.

 

Rate increases justified by conducting business in an area having crime (pretty much anywhere), or justified by taking steps to protect yourself, your employees and your customers?

 

The latter because crime is everywhere.

Good! They should put him back in the sewer and let Willard and his buddies chew him up.
