Philadelphia gas station owner Neil Patel hired security guards with AR-15s to deal with all the “nonsense, drug trafficking, hanging around, [and] gangs” endangering his employees.

Patel, who has a Karco gas station, hired “Pennsylvania S.I.T.E Agents clad with Kevlar vest and AR-15s or shotguns” to keep his employees safe, FOX 29 reports.

“They are forcing us to hire the security, high-level security, state level. We are tired of this nonsense: robbery, drug trafficking, hanging around, gangs,” Patel said.

In some countries, Patel is the equivalent of Smith

“Not flame throwers?” It is after all a gasoline station.

Yeah, some quotes just age like bad cheese....

"Would any sane person risk the the risks of being prosecuted for a piece of corporate property the owner or WAWA think worth the possible negative consequences of putting an armed security guard on the premises. Really, such remarks are just mental onanism. Grow up."

All he needs to do is play some music outside the store. Classical, or C&W. The yutes will avoid the place.

You’re assuming he votes for those in control. I seriously doubt that is the case here at all.

Stores need to convert to Service Merchandise style stores of the 80s.

My family's construction company installed smoke detectors in the housing projects in Louisville, Ky. I saw only one white resident, and she had black kids. The rest were blacks. I had to go into each apartment to inspect the electrical work.

One lady opened her apartment and I had just started my explanation ("I'm here to inspect the installation of the smoke detector") when a young chubby black girl shows up with a 50 something short bald fat white guy in a cheap suit.

The woman started screaming at her. "Can't you see The Man is here!?" I explained I was just there to inspect the installation of the smoke detector.

She said, "Oh. Ok honey." Then to the couple she said, "you can go on in."

I don't think your run-of-the-mill RAT knows what's going on. They're stupid, and lazy, and do nothing resembling honest research. They get their news from CNN or some other anti American media outlet and we all know that's nothing but fake news.

But you're right. The RAT party and establishment Repugnants are definitely and deliberately destroying America.

Thing is, none of them are going to like what follows. Totalitarian regimes target liberals too.

Have your security guy equipped with a flame thrower and a suicidal gleam in his eye. Deterrents work.

Go ahead. I’m ready if you are. Top of the world. Ma.

What can we expect with all the 3rd world invaders daily. All those we elect take an oath. Many are guilty of not protecting the borders from foreign invaders.

And how do you know he voted for it?

Chances are, he did, whether he knows it or not.

Same way I “get what I voted for” for being domiciled in CA against my will.

[Mr. Patel is right, of course. But he had better have lots and lots of liability insurance. Because he’s in Philadelphia, not rural Texas.

And as the saying goes, a lawyer is attached to every bullet.]


Thanks. There’s a reason Walmarts and Targets don’t have armed security. OTOH, he’s not exactly the kind of deep-pocketed megacorp ambulance chasers target.

Broad and Clearfield streets in North Philadelphia, on the main street, but in the neighborhood of Temple University. Dangerous surroundings.
