he stammered about a bit and I yelled at him to lock the "GD" door now damn it!...

Um, WHY?

I probably would have done everything else that you did. But if they locked the door, it wouldn't have kept them out.. (sort of like rolling up the windows in a bad neighborhood)

But good on ya!

It depends. Most ghetto 7-11s have iron bars across the glass. It would have kept them out as they took cover behind a solid structure.

I asked him if he had a back room or back door. He kept pointing to the freezer.....the freezer gave me the creeps...we had a killer/robber here a few years back....a white guy....who liked to line 'em up in the freezer at McDs and CapDs after close and shoot 'em execution style..

But you're right....plate glass ain't squat. I had hoped the clerk had some heat but he wouldn't have handed off to me anyhow....he was mighty spooked by me as much as them.....

I told him he was in America now.....that some of these punks don't play around. My first thought after I saw their weapons was that the store had poker machines in back or were number runners.....not uncommon around here....that these boys were looking for more than a cash register.

My remaining grey matter was in overdrive.
