I've made that point on other sites. In most states, that storekeeper would have been completely justified in putting this dog down. "unarmed" or not
Absolutely, he was clearly threatening him, he just robbed the store so this store owner has no idea what is coming next, a knife, a gun. Absolutely justified self defense if this store owner pulled out a gun and shot him. Too many people get killed because they do not take action when they are threatened. Happens every single day, there are countless examples of it on Youtube, it will happen tonight, tomorrow, the next day and the next because people are taught to be victims, and liberals will riot, loot and burn things down if you refuse to be one.
