A man with an AK-47 who robbed customers at a Waffle House in Texas is on life support after being shot by a customer with a licensed handgun.
According to the DeSoto Police Department, Antione Cooper, 26, entered the restaurant in the 1500 block of North Beckley Avenue at 2:30 a.m. Thursday. Patrons at the Waffle House told police Cooper robbed several customers before leaving the restaurant and entering the parking lot.

1 good guy with a gun.
that should shut up the morons.
Medical bills..$0 dollars.
Any five-year-old could take that thingy off and make the weapon fully automatic.
Interesting that this has not had more attention by the MSM, considering all of the news out of Dallas recently, calls for gun control, etc. lately

Maybe the Customer was black as well?
Well in this case the problem was that he followed the perp out to the parking lot. If he’d shot the perp in the act that would have been more defensible. Fortunately the cops were sympathetic to his situation and accepted his claim that he was afraid for his wife’s safety even though she was not present because she was on her way over. Who knows whether there was any truth to it. The cops are just about the only authorities who you can count on to act reasonably these days. They threw him a lifeline.
Unplug him and save society time, trouble, and money.

The customer claims the perp pointed his "AK-47" at him -- immediately after the perp had committed a felony. That is direct self-defense ... the wife part of the story is irrelevant.
I wonder if the news site will be fined for displaying the barcode on the patient’s wristband.... HIPAA protected data and clearly readable.... (sorry, in my field of work)
Don't need to look at a picture to know it's another of zero's sons. Lemme guess, he was a good boy who wouldn't harm a flea and was turning his life around by enrolling in community college and had aspirations of becoming a rap artist.
scattered, smothered, covered, and chunked!
I'm guessing the photos came directly from law enforcement.
Obama would have preferred that the hero took on the perp with a laptop or a book (but those are harder to get than a handgun, doncha know).
I agree. Journos need to edumacate themselves about guns so they write about them authoritatively, so ATTENTION "JOURNALISTS". (See images below)
THIS is an AR-15. (Does that scare you? It sure as heck does ME!)
THIS is an AK-47. I suggest to carry these pictures around with you so you can describe these deadly weapons accurately.
What are you talkin’ about? That’s a picture of a MA Deuce quad mount. :>)
Ok. That helps a bit too.
Tough getting an M16.
I agree.
