AR-15 is a stupid choice for a store robbery. You can’t grab stuff if you’re holding it with two hands.........

His arm was nearly severed. Perhaps his gun-toting days are over then. Boo-hoo.

Perhaps, but the anti-gun politicians hide the fact that “teens” in the inner city are armed to the gills. The idea that gun control is going to stop these thugs from having any kind of weapon is ludicrous. This is why cops have to go into these places in armored vehicles and with their own high-powered weapons. They are war zones.

The one guy had his step-son with him. It’s so nice to see a young man follow dad into the family business./s

Thanks for the update. I’m surprised the one thug didn’t show up at a hospital.

And, of course, we have to have the obligatory about gun violence threatening the community. Not criminals, mind you, but gun violence. Sheesh.

Yeah, funny how that happens. It’s almost as if they don’t want to obey the law, right?

Exactly! I imagine it was gang related. Some gang thug shot up a barber shop in Tulsa and only managed to kill one of the barbers. This was featured on an episode of The First 48, a great show.

Probably a gang hit, not a robbery. Apparently they have to lie about everything in order to pretend that they don’t have a thug problem.

An example of taking one for the team.

Disorganized crime.

"Wait a minute! Is that really an AR-15?"

No. Good eye. The receiver looks like an AK variant, maybe. The side of the receiver looks completely flat, it extends forward from the magazine well, etc. It even has one of those funny, European muzzle devices on it.

Krinkov. That’s what the muzzle device is called, if I remember correctly. That would be weird, indeed, on an AR. Anyway, it looks like an AK variant with the flat receiver, receiver extending toward the muzzle from the magazine well and so on.

I wouldn’t trust anything that Connecticut government says about the topic. Too many European constituents there have refused to assimilate with the rest of us Americans so far, while they try to buy up all of the real estate in the U.S.A. and subjugate us.
