Let's hope the clerk does not get fired now as has happened too many times before.

The BG was very lucky the clerk did not drop the hammer on him.

And then the clerk went on a killing rampage? Oh, no, that did not happen.

Because the clerk is not a democrat, that's why.

Hooray for the clerk! Since this is not a "chain" party store from what I can tell, hopefully the clerk is the owner & was just defending his life. Went to EMU and know the area well. Hope the bad guy gets busted and goes away for a long time.

There was an incident not too long ago and not too far from where I live where an officer was fighting for her life with an armed robber of a convenience store. They were on the ground wrestling for control of her gun, when the armed store clerk ran up and center punched the robber right in the skull.

Good guys: 1

Being a clerk in a stop and rob in some neighborhoods is a scary and rough proposition.

Clerk should have run away .. just think of the civil liability ! Plus she has to make it home.
