"There are only a few videos like that on YouTube now, so mine's going to be the best," he said. "That'll teach this guy."I'm thinking this is a darwin award winner in the making... talking like that can only bring the perp back with a knife or gun....

But Hoffmann admits he was less worried about the stolen cash than how he might look on the video-sharing site YouTube.I guess character is no longer what you do when noone is looking.
To: ShadowDancer
What charges have been brought against the clerk?

A complete ban is not practical right now. So Corzine will concentrate on banning high-capacity, assault-style mugs. One step at a time...

“Fotchanat that he dinna have a gun, he coulda’ been shot...”
Are we talking about the robber, or the clerk?
Oh, it’s NJ, so he’s talking about the clerk being shot, not the robber.

It happened in Jersey. The Detroit television station probably picked it up to let the locals know that people in other parts of the country also have desperate thugs.

I would think that would enrage the punk that attempted the robbery enough to cause him to come back to the donut shop with a weapon and teach the clerk a lesson ending in death...
