Another Failure of the Victim-selection Process

I have no idea what the Kroger policy is for being armed on the job, but I wouldn't be surprised if this clerk lost her job. Clerk shoots man at East Memphis Kroger gas station, police say | Fox 13 Memphis

The clerk told police that the 35-year-old man who was shot had been banned from the store due to him being aggressive with her, other store employees and customers, MPD said.

Witnesses told police that the clerk told the man that he wasn't supposed to be in the store and asked him to leave before the shots were fired.

Another witness said that she saw the man throwing stuff at the clerk before the shooting occurred.

The guy who got shot was taken to a local hospital, the clerk was questioned but not charged.

Cops don't make decisions about charges, that is up to the District Attorney. Still, self-defense is a human-right, and Tennessee has not morphed into New Jersey.
