No matter how hard the “progressive”, liberal DemocRATS work to make crime a safer and more rewarding profession, Americans continue to throw obstacles in their way. LOL! They’re throwing a lot of lead too!

Shouldn't that be..
A man in Bassfield is dead, shot at least 10 times allegedly by a store owner he was allegedly trying to rob I agree. That's one of my pet peeves.
To: smokingfrog
The robber will never make the mistake of hitting that store again...

"....until the clip is empty."
Ammunition clips are used to load magazines. Please learn the language of any technical matter that you may chose to discuss. Words have meanings.

Most people, especially those who do not practice, will empty all of their ammunition when they are finally thrust into the intense stress of a live shooting situation... and especially if getting shot themselves.

Bullets are to cartridges as flour is to bread, as cement is to concrete, etc. Please learn the terminology of any technical matter upon which you wish to discuss.

There are times I question the number of rounds fired by the police but the alleged robber asked for the whole magazine by shooting the clerk. If he was that ready to shoot the clerk,he was ready and intending to kill the clerk ,so the correct response is kill him so he can't shoot me again.It is possible to fire several shots per second and if the robber is slow to fall I can see the clerk emptying his gun.

Actually, telling entrance from exit wounds can be difficult. I knew a man who was shot with a .25 eight times, including three through the navel, and he had more holes in him... Which was which was anybody’s guess.
In any event, a little over two weeks later he got out of the hospital and was exercising to speed recovery. The first I heard was when he was dressing out in the dressing room, and “what the heck happened to you?”
He admitted to being “a bit creaky”. That was the day I swore I would never own a .25.

His recommendation, obviously, was that the store owner should have shot the perp with an M-1 Garand.

LeRobert? Nice, his mother gave him a radioactive marker to warn us.
