Nope, didn't say that. I was just pointing out that, in this instance, it's pretty unlikely that this woman intended to commit a crime, and that your rationale (that she may have pulled out a gun after paying) was just as possible after the cashier refused service as it would have been had the cashier accepted the money and turned on the pump.
If an individual drives around town in what looks like a ninja costume that person should expect to be treated like a potential criminal.
Did you look at the video or photo? This person looks frightening.
