Note to Black men - you need something more than an AK-47 if you want to commit armed robbery in Texas.

Most people, sober or drunk, do not have the ability, though.

“If you have an AK, why hit a Waffle House? The risk-reward ratio is not in one’s favor.”
Definitely a violation of Sutton’s Law.

“Cooper does not have an arrest photo yet as he is recovering in the hospital.” Let’s hope they don’t have to waste the film (or SD card memory)...

“Strain”? An armed robber points an AK at you and you shoot him? That’s not “strain”, that’s heroism.
