Well....over ten times means something. Just what the hell number is it? You reporters can do better than that! I give the store owner at least a hundred freedom points for every shot over the first 10.....

Everybody knows that just 10 rounds can save your state 100% of the dollars it would have otherwise spent on incarcerating just one dirt-bag.

The robber is not available to testify against the clerk. Good.
