I looked at the video again. They may be white. the video is in black and white, so it is difficult to detect skin color for certain.

Definitely better resolution than what I saw before.

I would call it indeterminate now.

My cousin owns a convenience store near Baton Rouge. One day he saw a customer drive off w.o. paying for his pumped gas. Cousin hops in his vehicle and follows, while calling police on cell phone. He continues to follow, updating 911. The perp pulls to the side of the road and stops. Cousin also pulls over and stops (still on phone w. 911). Perp steps out of car and pulls a gun. Cousin also is armed (and licensed to carry). Perp fires and misses. Cousin doesn't miss.

Footnote: cousin's dad is former Marine. ALL five of his kids (including the lone girl) were well-trained with firearms.

911 is about the paperwork and making sure the bureaucrats get their work completed. It has nothing to do with saving lives and protecting property.

I wonder what he hit when he missed the bad guys, or what they hit when they shot at him. There’s a lot of houses around there to be shooting anything let alone an AK.

The store is in an older white section of Dayton called “Belmont”.

So more likely it’s some unemployed white yutes looking to score something to sell and buy heroin or opiates, a major problem for Dayton and all of SW Ohio.

Hell of a thing. Amazing that somebody would do that just to steal a tank of gas.

A 911 operator laughed at me when I called in a report of loose cattle on a road one night. She couldn’t get past her disbelief that there was livestock in the city. I gave the address then hung up.

Another time I called in a drunk driver being an idiot in a parking lot on a Sunday night. Spent 10 minutes following the car after it left and the dispatcher said they didn’t have enough cops on duty to get someone there.

“For small arms you cannot beat a 30 caliber semi auto rifle. “

Multiple seasons of Walker Texas Ranger disproves that statement. :-)

A pistol is something you use to fight your way back to your rifle. He used the correct weapon.

Very good. If you know you might be going to gunfight, you take a rifle.

The rifle has many advantages:

• More powerful cartridge
• Greater engagement range due to longer sight radius (or optic)
• Greater capacity due to greater standard magazine capacity (30 vs. 15 or less)

"Hell of a thing. Amazing that somebody would do that just to steal a tank of gas."

Amish. And probably had a long police record with outstanding warrants. Felon in possession of a firearm?? I'm sure there was more at stake than just the tank of gas.
