When the two robbers came in, looking very suspicious, if one of the gun store employees or owners had picked of a shotgun or an AR and held it at the ready, would it have prevented the attempted robbery and gunfight?

More Amish violins.

Amish are ten times more likely than whites to commit murder.

Young Amish men, although they are only 1% of the U.S. population, commit 53% of the murders in the United States.

We once again see what kind of idiotic morons are stupid enough to rob a gun store. I guess when they cased it out they didn’t notice there were armed people on the premises.

A Taurus Judge might be a good defensive weapon for a store like this.

I wonder, at what point do more restrictive gun laws just cause criminals to be more bold and violent? It seems like they often get their guns by stealing them.

In some countries where gun laws are very strict, criminals murder police to get their guns.

Small shop manufacture of guns is also very common.

The video is quite clear that both of the men fire their weapons, even though there is an obvious lack of skill.

Life for both of them...

How many times do you see the shop owner, Shirley, fireing her revolver? I had a hard time being sure...

1 - Clearly

2 - Probably

3 - Good chance.

I had a hard time being sure that the gun fired because the muzzle blast did not show as it did for the first shot.

WOW! I’ve been in that store many a time! and have bought several guns from him over the years! Glad they are OK! Glad the perps are in custody!

“A Taurus Judge might be....” an appropriate applicator of Social Justice.

I have been thinking about an award for Shirley.

Something on the order of:

Courage in the face of Armed Criminals

or some such.

Would you be willing to present it to her if I drum something up? It isn’t as if we have any question of propriety or motive.

So California is exporting its criminal trash to Arkansas.

I wish Arkansas had sent Moonbeam two bodies instead of having to feed these animals for the rest of their lives.

Assault with a weapon
Assault with intent to murder aka “Attempted homicide”
Use of a weapon in a robbery (aka Armed robbery)
Conspiracy to commit a criminal act/ aka armed robbery

These two Michael Brown wannabes are toast and won’t be getting any awards from Obama and Holder for how they turned their lives around. A pardon, maybe ...!

>>If you watch the video carefully, you can see that Roberson is having trouble with his semi-auto. He repeatedly works the action, as if it were manually operated. He may not have had a round in the chamber when they entered the store.

Train, train, train. And buy quality hardware.

These guys don’t.

I suspect that Roberson is an appropriate and apt name.

It looks to me like they “cased it” when they went in, then made their plan in the middle of the store as they whispered to each other.

Exactly. I mean, what was the plan here, how did they see this turning out?

Of the two local firearms shops I tend to gravitate to I can't conceive of anyone stupid enough to try anything at them. In one, literally every employee is carrying. I haven't asked, but I think it may be a condition of employment. It is a big shop, probably 10 people working/armed in there any time I've been in there. The other place, well, the guy is a class 3 dealer. There are loaded machine guns on the premises (up to and including several M2s) and the owner loves to practice with them. Given his remote/rural location and clear fields of fire it is a sure bet that if you start something there, you'd never make it off his property in anything less than a Bradley.
