It takes a special kind of stupid to stick up a gun store during business hours. Ignoring the odds, two aspiring rocket surgeons donned masks and stormed into a gun and pawn shop in Marbleton, GA on the day after Christmas. They ordered the shop owner to get on the ground and then started shooting. Mr. Shop Owner drew his own heater. Fearing for his life, he dispensed some hot ballistic therapy according to Fox8.
The good guy business owner escaped unharmed, aside from ringing ears and soiled shorts. The robbers didn't fare so well. Robber #1 absorbed enough lovin' that he collapsed and died on the spot. Robber #2 ran out of the business as if recreating the scene of Richard Pryor running down the street after setting himself alight. Police still want to talk with him.
The owner told Fox8 that his business has suffered many break-ins, but this incident marked the first brazen attack during business hours.
Nice shooting!
Must have been an ISIS arms pick up for new refugees.
Sometimes you can fix "stupid", robber #1 got his "Darwin diploma" and I'd bet robber #2 ended up with some education as well, ya think?
I have read and did some research on armed assults and that 50% of armed attacks involve 2 or more assailants…..in some of my training I try to incorporate 2 human size targets at various angles and distances to assimilate possible real life scenarios….using a helper or shot timer I try to get shots on target in less than 2 seconds on 2 would be attackers…..the goal here is to hit each target 2 shots each….4 shots in less than 2 seconds….easier said than done even when you are just going for combat accuracy.
Bravo to the shop owner.
Maybe the rest of the criminal element in that neighborhood will think at least twice before picking on that guy again. Then again, these aren't MENSA candidates… Thinking? That's a little much for them.
