Robbers Need To Start Doing Background Checks Before Robberies

Pulling a gun on a military veteran is never a great idea:

Marionville, Mo – A man entered the store and pointed a gun at Alexander during his shift Sunday night. But the clerk, a 30-year veteran of the military, quickly pushed the gun away and drew his own — placing it at the gunman’s mouth.  The would-be robber held his gun at his side and quickly backed out of the store.

HomerFacePalmInteresting that the robber half-ass slowly pulled his gun out and then wimped out when the clerk put his hand out.  I’m assuming the robber must have been high or something, luckily… or maybe just stupid.  High AND stupid is always a winning combination.

Thoughts?

    Looks like “The Dude” took some lessons from Walter Sobchak

  4. Robber is lucky he didn’t take one to the dome.

  5. Just like to point out he was also state corrections…gotta rep the field ;)

  6. Who the fuck uploaded this? Do we really need it repeated two more times at different speeds? This isn’t a high speed camera, and it’s not like we missed anything the first time.

    At least we didn’t get to hear extremely slowed down voices, too.

    God damn I hate youtube.

    2. I was told it was something to the effect of” You need to get the fuck out of here before I blow your fucking head off”

  9. As I understand it, the guys wife saw the video on TV and didn’t hear about if from him. She called him and chewed him out but when he got home the loving was fine.
