A man in a convenience store makes the error of carrying his gun in his pocket, visible to those around him. He has his gun taken from him.

Nothing good happens in busy convenience stores after dark.
That was hilarious!
“Come on bro. Gimme back my gun, dawg.”
Sounds like he gave it to him, all right.
White boy in wrong neighborhood. Pays for it with his life.

Shannon Watkins / Chris Ervin Jr. / Kenderrion Muse
March 30, 2023
Clayton County, GA
Facts:
On March 30, 2023, around 2 a.m., 37-year-old Shannon Watkins was shot and killed at a Shell gas station on Flint River Road in the Adair Park neighborhood.
Watkins was standing in line to buy a drink when his holstered firearm was stolen. A struggle followed, during which a second suspect exited a nearby vehicle and opened fire.
Watkins was shot multiple times and later died at the hospital. The suspects fled in a white Chrysler 300.
On March 31, 2023, 18-year-old Chris Ervin Jr. was arrested and charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, robbery by snatching, and multiple additional offenses.
On April 1, 2023, 18-year-old Kenderrion Muse turned himself in. He was charged with murder, aggravated assault, robbery by sudden snatching, and weapons charges.
Surveillance footage and police reports linked both suspects to the incident.
The victim was 37 years old. He should have known better.
This why I don’t open-carry.
If you dont know how to responsibly carry and use, you might as well just hand your gun to the bad guy. Thats what this idiot just did.
Of course their first instinct is to look at peoples pockets for stuff to take. White boy needs to go back for fire arms refresher course.
These facts are wrong. Keep reading the comments at the link. This poor white kid was not 37 years old and Shannon Watkins was a black guy. Different incidents, different places, different years even.
The inner webbies gets confused easily.
Bit of a side story: I live in an open-carry state. Last year I was in a store, and there was this guy open-carrying a revolver in a holster. He was looking at an item on a high shelf.
Literally anyone could have taken his gun. Me. Some punk. Some little kid. Some crazy old person.
Moral of this (rather dull) story: Think twice about open-carrying if concealed-carry is an option.
Actually the victim was not obviously 37. See my post 10.
The OP at X confused two different incidents.
With such stellar situational awareness, I’m surprised they got the best off him.
Cue up Elvis’s “In The Ghetto”
A clear-cut case of self-defence. / Karmelo.
White boy is dead. No refresher course.
The left is correct. Some people shouldn’t be allowed to carry a firearm.
That’s why you never , ever open carry a gun in public.
