Armed Liquor Store Clerk Holds Robbers for Police

[PingOnThis]

I'm glad that she didn't need to shoot anyone.

[Colortiniz]

Great story.

[bluemew88888]

i think it was very good the woman was trying to protect the store but she could have racked up charges against herself here. 1, she detained you can not detain people unless you do a citizens arrest which requires witnessing a felony. 2. she pulled a gun on unarmed people one who was running which means he wasnt a threat to her safety. i dont think she acessed the situation right in this instance and im all for gun im actually a member of the pink pistols but u must learn how and when to use em

[glenmann62]

im glad when good citizens kill theives, kill all crooks!

[True2TheBlueYoViGang]

i dnt understand...........so technically they weren't armed just acting suspicious? Wait...she pulled a gun out on unarmed people? thats serious u gota be sure before pulling the gun out shes lucky the cop gave her a warning becuz here in s. florida u can get up to 5-10yrs in jail for pulling one out. They were most likely drunk and acting stupid. I still think what she did was smart cuz u never knw who is who.....shes lucky the cops were on her side.

I wouldnt mind seeing them dead, but you showed true gun control, That is one more for our side, thank you.

[GetMeThere1]

This is a good example of how guns--even when not fired--can reduce/prevent crime.

[redneckjoshua]

Good job!

[happycamper777]

Nice - i like how they said "just be trained" not - give them your money and do what they say. That's the usual idiotic stance.

[italianppf2]

YEAHHHH you go girl....

[happycamper777]

whereas I refuse to be a victim, I'm not sure the deadly threat of force is justified in someone stealing a bottle of liquor, but serves the idiot right...

[chowhound3]

Deadly force wasnt used in this case, she held him til the cops got there..

[sargon08]

look how cool the police is we need a police like him here in chicago

[ksufangarret]

dude i go to that liker store all the time cuz my parents own the bar down the street.

[7pt62manNW]

She did everything right. If one of them had tried to attack her, she would have been justified in shooting him, too. Great to hear her boss is pro gun and allows her to defend herself !

[NoEoAoRo]

Good for her! Even property is worth defending.

[cardik0808]

woo!! woo!!

[0n3m4n4rm33]

A: thats Liquor Dicks B: its not in the best neighborhood so what do you expect, C: If a clerk drew down on me for shoplifting (cops can't even do that on a misdemeanor) I would have run. And sued if I was shot...

[mryjn420090]

hhhhh

[cnote785]

Crazy, crazy!!! lol

[dagamelord]

In every Liquor store someone has a gun, one time it was a customer and he scared of some crooks

[CLD1970]

Good for her!

[bestSVMS]

gun firing is only justifieable if your life is in dager

she didnt fire

she used it as a deternt of them running

and they are in jail now

good job

[you751]

FYI: Only pull a gun out if your life is threatened. I don't know about Topeka, Kansas, but in my state it's illegal to draw your gun if your life is not in danger. If she were in my state she would have gotten in trouble, but fortunately she wasn't punished.

[Gunluver1]

where do u live NY or california? lol

[willquestion]

So if the guy ran away instead of waiting while the police came, would she have shot? I have problems with the possibility of someone killing another person over a bottle of liquor. That's why businesses have insurance to cover damages and theft.

[skut54]

Well she would have shot him in both legs so he couldn't run and then both arms so he'd drop the bottle and not try to grab his gun and then she would shoot him in the mouth so he couldn't backtalk the police or her and afterwards i gaurantee he will have learned his lesson and will never be able to steal again because there is nothing threatening about a man with no legs or arms and cant talk. Just like one used to get ones hand chopped off if one stole in the old days it just gets shot off now

[MCMaddogMckenzi]

Yeah, but who really wants repeat offenders?

[DakotaFLHTCUI]

People like you always have problems with others who stand up to these low lifes, until it is you who is attacked or robbed!

By catching these two, who knows how many other robberies she prevented?

Good for her!!

[Derek799]

t-town Kansas, yup this is true

[RedRanger999]

LOL

sad to say but this is my hometown

[oilhammer04]

I remember when I was a kid and I heard about a rape in Topeka . . . . crime was a rare thing back then.

[peacefuljeffrey]

If they had been "two BLACK men" would the newscaster have said "the two BLACK men"?

I doubt it. That wouldn't have been politically correct.

Thank you and congratulations to the clerk. WE NEED ALL GOOD PEOPLE TO ACT AS SHE DID. (But, SHOOT next time!)

[coyoteslayer21]

Only shoot if your life is threatened.
