"Police said they don't recommend doing what Torres did, but they're glad it worked out."

Why is it....that they ALWAYS spout this crap after an armed citizen does exactly what he/she is SUPPOSED to do? Just chaps my hide. They should be kissing him on all four cheeks.

Question - was there a “no weapons” sign near the door?

If so, then it is obvious that the CCW guy shot an unarmed man, because we know that criminals always obey those signs.

In Ohio many if not all banks and credit unions put up the signs designating their premises as gun-free zones(as did libraries,and some stores like the UDF convenience stores.)Of course,the would-be robbers see the signs and turn away,right?...right????

Perhaps the triangle was a poor choice of instrument.

Francis said he tried to rob the Space Coast Credit Union in Palm Bay because he needed money. ... He wrote, "I make music for a living, but tings not working out right now, so I went to rob this bank."

Poor Floyd Francis.
Another 'victim' of the cutthroat Rap Music industry.

While Francis was waiting in line at the credit union, he put a plastic bag on his head. Torres said he had time to go get his gun from his car.

He is damn lucky he met a criminal dumb enough to let him do this. The only thing worse than no gun is not having your gun when you need it. You'll spend the rest of your life regretting it.

Whoa!!!! Check out the video embedded in the article. Do my ears deceive me? If I heard this correctly, this genius named himself after “Jihad” (but with a “G”).

“He wrote, “I make music for a living, but tings not working out right now, so I went to rob this bank.”

He sounds like one of public skools finest products.

I’m wondering if he wanted to get caught. Sometimes that promise of 3 hots and a cot in jail sounds better than their own reality to these slackers.

As much as I love it when armed citizens make the bad guys fail, this story is not one of the best examples. From other accounts that I read, the robber put a plastic bag over his head, demanded money, then took off the bag so the teller could put the money in it.

I got the impression that Mr. Torres could have written “handgun” on a deposit slip, held it up for the bank robber to see, and the guy would have surrendered. :)
