Starbucks has already purchased movie rights.
I admire this guy's spunk. Goes to show all you morning Diet Cokeheads that Java may give you kidney stones but it could one day save your life.
Think about that. =)

When coffee and beef jerky are outlawed, only outlaws will will have coffee and beef jerky.

Man, look at that damage. I have heard that they used to make cars out of metal and put bumpers on them. Too bad that guy got a bumper made of silly putty.

No one else, like store staff, saw any of this happening? Or are they the ones who called police? In any case, it is scary to think this can happen any time. I'm glad the article mentioned a description of the carjacker.
I suppose the victim will be charged with a hate crime now.

Those cops need to lay off the donuts.They need to incorporate coffee and jerky into their diets. It worked for Woods.

How much will the carjacker sue the gas station for making the coffee too hot?
Never bring a gun to a coffee fight. (or something like that)

"I'm glad he ran," Woods said. "I don't think I could have gone to bed tonight knowing I shot somebody." Huh??? You still don't understand what just happened to you, do you? I would have taken joy in the fact that I killed this punk before he could cause harm to any others.

LOL - I actually came to the thread to see how long it would take for somebody to reference Spicolli.

If that had been McDonald's coffee he had of thrown at the creep, the creep would have stopped in his tracks, fallen to the ground and begged for someone to poor anything cold on him (I'd have chosen gasoline). I had some McDonald's coffee back in mid August in Las Vegas, NM that was so hot, I could not drink a drop until driving as far as Tucumcari NM. That stuff doesn't cool down - it nuclear or something.

Ain't nothing like a hot cup of coffee in your eyes first thing of a morning to start your day off right!! Dude has real guts, and I think he is a hero...stopping some perp with java, now that's a special insult to the crooks of the world. He should have shot the s.o.b. about five times, and this would have been a great story with a happy ending too!!

Agreed.
I like this:
There he bought another cup of coffee and finally cracked open the beef jerky he'd bought earlier that morning.
"It was the best beef jerky I've had in a while," he said.

Maybe the guy was trying to prevent the driver from mixing coffee with beef jerky. What a snack combo!

Woods hurled the scalding cup of coffee at the man, kicked the driver's side door into the man's leg, and then threw his cell phone at him. After that, Woods said, he grabbed the gun with his left hand and repeatedly punched the man with his right. Woods said the gun's hammer pinched his thumb and cut his hand. The man punched Woods in the mouth. Another wingnut ran out of money half-way to Florida. This one is lucky the local guy wasn't armed with anything more lethal than gas station coffee.

The victim fails to appreciate that the perpetrators are still on the loose and some other victim may get shot. If he had plugged the guy, chances are good they police could have detected who his accomplices were.
