Like everyone else, I too love a happy ending. However....there are too many details missing for me before I throw confetti. 1) Driver is in his car, counting his bucks, and I’m guessing since it’s midnite the dome light is on for all in the immediate vicinity to see what he is doing. That’s not smart. 2) Is the motor running? If so, why didn’t the driver just drive away? I have had my carry permit for quite a few years, and thank God I have not had to shoot anyone. A large part of my training is “situational awareness” whereby I win every gunfight I don’t get into. And when in my car, if I see something that tingles the spidey sense, I drive away and call it in. I’m not saying the victim didn’t have every right to defend himself against a knife wielding robber who threatened his life. I’m just saying there are too many unknowns for me to fire any “hooray” shots in the air. Perhaps the driver saved the innocent life that this mutt would have taken next week, only God knows. Lastly, from similar stories I’ve seen before Dominos will probably fire the driver. It forbids delivery people from carrying.
As noted above by Leni, the the pizza guy is not a rocket scientist but give him credit for having a job. Surely he has learned from this experience and has rid my community of a real bad apple.
“...from similar stories I’ve seen before Dominos will probably fire the driver. It forbids delivery people from carrying.”
If thats’ true, Dominos drivers need to be quitting en-masse. The other thing I see is that if you live in South Florida, you need to be armed just to survive. That whole part of the state behaves like Chicago! I mean seldom a day goes by here on FR where you DON’T read about an armed situation where a citizen has to defend himself.
