I hope that there will be some companies who appreciate a man who is able to act in a tough situation.

The same thing happened at a Cumberland Farms convenience store in NH a few years back.
The manager shot a fleeing armed suspect. Perp was picked up next day. Cumberland Farms fired the manager for violating company policy. He was hired the next day by a competitor's convenience store. They said, "We like having employees who are will to stand up for what's right and themselves."
Nice.

Wow. A 24 year old manager of a Kroger store? He must have a lot on the ball — and I guess he proved it! Good for him!

Sounds like Kroger paid him off. Good for him.
Perhaps he can start his own grocer.

Kroger has a stupid policy. Someone on Free Republic posted one of the most profound things I ever read a few years ago. It goes something like
"911 is simply the number you call to get the crime investigated quicker. I work at MSFC in Huntsville. We must go through about 10 times the security background check that the sheriff's department conducts before authorizing a concealed carry permit so that we can get a badge to work on base. The Feds ban all weapons on base.
You would think that folks would realize that law abidign citizens are not the problem, law-breakers are the problem.

Damn! This guy can run the No Frills supermarket for me....after I conquer it in post-Obama collapse of civilization.
Just kidding.
He did the right thing.
And...allowing concealed-carry by employees and broadcasting it will make sure the crooks move....to the HyVee instead. Afterall, HyVee is where the rich and beautiful people shop. Better pickings.
