What’s with emptying the clip?

Good thing dude didn’t have a friend with a gun waiting outside.

It is racist for white men to defend themselves.

And fyi. Nice to empty the magazine.

Certainly the right ending occurred in this one.

The robber on the floor was still holding his gun. That's reason enough to use a few extra rounds to make sure he no longer presents an imminent threat.

Of course the employee should have reloaded another magazine once the first one had been emptied.

Pretty good shooting for a fast draw from the hip.

Probably a bag to put the dollar bills in.

In any case, he won’t need it now. He’s the one who will be ‘bagged and tagged’.

Good riddance to another Democrat voter and kid who was just turning his life around in the hood.

He took out the punk, and while he was at got revenge on the printer on the counter. Good shoot.

We have to love stories with a happy ending. The bad guy with a gun lost to a good guy with a gun and no trial will be needed.

All is as it should be.

The criminal was wearing a hoodie - in July.

Remember a few years back when Rep. Bobby Rush, a member of the Congressional Black Communist Caucus and a former Black Panther, wore a hoodie on the House floor to "protest" against the shooting of Crayon the Innocent?

Sure. Un huh.

Congressman Bobby Rush Kicked Off House Floor For Wearing Hoodie

Interesting looks like the slide locked back after the last shot was fired.

Interesting that he shot at him 5 more times when in was on the floor.

The perp still had a gun in his hand.
You walk in to any store, home etc with a gun waving it around with obvious bad intent and you get what you deserve.

Lights out! 1st or second round to the head. Unfortunately. Would have liked to see the vermin squirm a little bit, in pain, contemplating his life as he exsanguinates.

This just in: while the clerk was not charged by Philadelphia Police for the shooting, he was charged by the Fashion Police for wearing socks with sandals

Wasn’t it Biden who said you didn’t need more than 4 bullets?

More camera angles and information here:

The robber threw a bag on the counter, telling the employee to fill it with phones.

And then more or less turns his back on the employee.

What good is a stolen cell phone, anyway? The retailer will have a record of the IMEI number. Turning it on only makes it a beacon leading to the holder who will never be able to access any network.
