Store Owner Shoots and Kills Shoplifter Walking Out The Door

[MRH]

I always try to advocate this fact. A gun is about DEESCALATION. Please be careful, y'all. The gun is meant to get you away, get them away, or get em dead. In that order.

Carrying means added personal responsibility. If anything, it should give a person more reason to avoid conflict. I know it does for me.

The video doesn't show everything and as usual, causes lots of speculation. Shoplifting may not be a capital offense in the eyes of a court, but I won't say I feel sorry for the thief either. Furthermore, I can't see it there was anything in his right hand.

The real moral of the story is don't steal.

So, some of you think misdemeanor shoplifting should get the death penalty? That's right up there with a traffic thicket.

But he was scared!

He shot him because he broke the grip he had on him and was going to get away. This asshole needs to go to prison for a very long time.

the autopsy will clear it all up and we dont know where the guy parked yet

Was the 3 second rule in affect?...that could be the tale of the tape

 

[BIKER13]

yep he is going to jail.3 second rule was not in effect. Shop owner was never in danger

Yeah this shows clearly there was no threat...I think about what I would have done in the same situation and shooting the guy doesn't even register with me.

Shoplifting rule #1: If they step one foot out the door, it's acceptable to shoot them.

He will probably argue that the thief was pulling the hatchet out of his pants and feared for his safety when he shot.

I agree with you
