Two dead, one injured and two thugs facing the death penalty. And for what? A bag full of lottery tickets.

Where da keys at? Where da keys at? They must have known the store owner didn’t have a gun.

Having not seen the video, I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that these guys weren’t Chinese.

No one should work in a C store who is not armed and skilled! They are scum magnets!

A bag full of lottery tickets.

I wonder how much they won.

The customer had plenty of opportunity to make a clean getaway

Oddly, I thought this article was about Russia at first.

Next step is higher resolution cameras.

Slightly OT, but if those lottery tickets had won, wouldn’t the police have known that they came from the scene of the crime? I’m thinking those things have serial numbers.

Khadafy Mullens, 26

Who — in 1983 — would name their kid after Moamar Khadafy?

Prosecutors have said they will seek the death penalty.

If convicted, hang them. The slow way. Publicly. No hood, no meds. With cameras rolling.

...and why would anyone but a jury want to see the whole thing?

An education in situational awareness.

I just realized I have been guilty of walking into stores without checking exactly what is going on inside. No more.

Although I do avoid convenience stores in general, mostly because of the high prices, although there was general awareness of them being high crime places.

If they advertised “armed management”, I would be much more likely to go in.

Folks, conceal carry and always take a look in the store prior to entering. If you see any of the customers being loud or having their head on a swivel, don’t go in. You see a guy with a hoodie pulled down over his head and his hands in pockets, be real wary.

These two man teams and one almost always goes to the back to keep an eye on those people in the back of the store. He will try to make regular subtle eye contact with his partner. They will mill around waiting for the customers to thin out. Less customers means less resistors. Thugs hardly ever wear holsters so they will constantly adjusting their iron. The front guy will usually mill around and ask questions, make conversation to lull the clerk, and let people go ahead of them.

Have a plan worked out before going in. Don’t be afraid to run out. Remember, you aren’t necessarily retreating. You are creating time and space and finding better cover/concealment. If you have to engage, remember 40 percent of all robberies involve multiple suspects.

Have a plan for afterword. Have someone else contact law enforcement while you cover the downed suspects. Have the caller give a good description of you and make sure you secure your firearm when the police arrive. Don’t be offended if they treat you as a potential suspect. Just do what they say. Everyone is a suspect until it is sorted out. Your gun will be seized for evidence, no way around it. Inquire if ballistics can be expedited so you can have it returned to you. Own a second firearm to cover while your first is being processed.

Bet they’re allowed to plea-bargain down to something that gets them off with a 5-10 sentence.

Two words: concealed carry.

I don't leave home without it, and I'm well trained and willing to use it.
