Much too wordy. Just looking for trouble. He should have said he feared for his life. It is hard to keep your mouth shut after an encounter such as this, much harder than most people think.
Still, the outcome was pretty good. He was not shot, arrested or charged. Just fired. He will likely be hired pretty quickly, even in this economy.
“Dominos Pizza wouldn’t comment when asked if Waide was fired. The company did say all employees sign a “no weapons while on duty policy”.”
I’d rather be unemployed than dead.
Not a very good shot.
Fired for protecting himself. Sickening.
I think this old "conventional wisdom" has pretty much been shown to be just plain false. I think, the more people resist, the fewer crimes there are.
Maybe gunowners need to turn their back on Domino’s...
Domino’s Pizza - If you like cardboard covered with sauce and other stuff.
Cool. No more Dominoes. I’d rather give my money to a Mom and Pop pizzeria anyway. It annoys me when this corporations push their liberal politics on the rest of us.
They could have just as easily had their drivers sign an agreement that reliquishes Dominoes from any responsibility if they pop someone: because Dominoes doesn’t have the right to limit Constitutional rights.
What about a Freerepublic boycott of Dominoe’s — better yet a Tea Party boycott ?

This is for liability purposes. If a delivery boy is killed, Domino's will get a replacement. If the delivery boy wrongfully shoots someone, Domino's has to pay up. Replacing a dead delivery boy is cheaper than paying a judgment because of an armed delivery boy.
It's all about the Benjamins, people!
Pizza Delivery Driver Still Alive. Domino’s, As Always, Sucks
(this is my headline)
Time for some state action here.
Companies have policies like Domino’s because their insurance carrier requires it. If states simply began disallowing anti self defense stipulations on the part of insurance companies, no insurance carrier is going to abandon a state just because they can’t prevent employees from defending themselves - especially as more and more states follow suit.

I used to work at the grocery store on the corner of Harry and Woodlawn. Not a terrible neighborhood but we did have our share of unusual come in there. Wonder how bad its gone down hill.
