Good post, good shoot, great outcome.
Bay Point is FAMOUS in the SF Bay Area as being “the really bad area”.
That a night clerk THERE would not carry his pistol right near his hip is sort of amazing.
VERY many people there like to cause problems.
Much of Bay Point is Salvation Army, liquor stores, smoke shops and gun stores.
Most likely the clerk did not have a CCW. That is rare in the Bay Area. Having it in a drawer by the cash register is okay even in California. The clerk was seriously unaware to the point that he deserves a Darwin Award Honorable mention.
