I’ve moonlighted in convenience stores. It’s pretty much across the board policy to not permit guns to be used by the employees. I’m not saying that that’s good policy. I’m just saying that it’s made clear and if she didn’t want to abide by policy she should not have taken the job.

Besides, if she was going to show the gun and lose her job the least she could have done was shot the perp.

Um. She actually did shoot the perp.

You didn't read far enough. She did shoot the perp.

Wertz said, “He pointed the gun at my face, I grabbed my gun from my pocket, I cocked it and I shot.” Her shot struck 23-year-old Ferron Mendez “in the torso,” but he is expected to survive the wound.

🔫. She did shoot the perp. Expected to survive. Doesn't look like he'll get much when he sues her for lost wages. 👹

I used to frequent a convenience store in my younger,dumber days after a few pops with my friends at a local bar which was right across the street. This was usually after 2am. I knew the regular night clerk and we would small talk as he rung up my munchies and I would then be on my way. A few months later a guy came into the store demanded money;got the money;proceeded to shoot the clerk in the head instantly killing him. This was not a big city,but Lancaster,Pennsylvania with a different kind of “Amish”. I used to work a 11-7 night shift at a gas station as a kid and that was my nightmare.
