Idiot shoots at shoplifter...

[jkfletcher]

at a Wal-Mart...hit the shoplifter's car, and 2 other cars, then lied about what happened....which was found out by watching surveillance tape

Vigilante Walmart shopper opens fire on shoplifter, hits three cars

A good heart (maybe) with no brain to match it.

Precisely the type of behavior we don't need right now. He failed to make a single good decision and does not fit the definition of a responsible gun owner.

Sad when good intentions go bad, but the guy broke about every rule in the book.

Was he a self appointed Walmart Watch Captain?

Unrelated, but every time I read one of your posts I hear it in my head in Dale Gribble voice.

That time I almost made a smart-alek Mega-lo-mart reference

Un-helpful.

Well, it was Florida.

So his reasoning for shooting was because he placed himself in the way of a moving vehicle? Isn't shoplifting only a Class A misdemeanor for under 250? It's not even a felony, so why get involved, get the plate number. He also shoved someone apparently, so that's battery, another misdemeanor. But nothing that needs lethal intervention.

I couldn't watch the video, but I bet the guy didn't try to run him over.

I hate blogs that cater to only things they want to hear. Deleting comments grinds my gears.

I wonder if he would have hit the robber with his first bullet if ya would be +1ing him and saying good job for the GG and too bad for the BG?

Some people need more range time for sure

The moron shouldn't have been in the position to shoot. If he would have shot the guy, it would be a good job moron...hope you fry.

If he shoots someone that's not presenting himself or another with an immediate threat of serious bodily harm or death, it's wrong. Now he's on the hook for damages, reckless endangerment, yadda yadda. He needs to be filtered out, and likely will never be legally in a position to make better decisions. Plus, this is the kind of thing the grabbers will latch onto in order to punish the rest of us for his rectocranial inversion.

 

[hoosierdoc]

Well, it was Florida.

Too soon

 

[cobber]

Was this a recent event? I'm surprised the video was released, as it could be evidence if Mr. Vigilante gets 'Zimmermanned'.

hard to shoot AND drive a segway at the same time?
