Bad Guys do not stop being bad guys because you are cooperating. Lewisburg gas station clerk fatally shot during robbery, community heartbroken
This is a tragedy.
Surveillance video shows the suspect approaching the counter, pretending to make a purchase and then pulling a gun.
Startled, Prince throws his hands in the air and begins handing over money from the register.
It didn't end there.
The shooter leaves the frame only to return to shoot Prince again, while he's on the ground.
He didn't survive.
He wasn't shot because he was a threat; his being shot while on the ground proves that. He wasn't shot because he was resisting; he wasn't resisting. He was shot because this bad guy didn't want a witness around.
Now having a gun for his own protection may not have saved this guy. There are no guarantees in this life. The Left, however, just loves to go on with the chorus of, "Just give them what they want, and you will be safe." (The Left never wants to discuss rape in that light, for some reason.) Even if he was armed, he may not have had an opportunity to respond. A barrier of bullet-resistant polycarbonate may have saved him, but that was clearly not present.
The clerk who got shot leaves behind a wife and child. Like I said, a tragedy.
They did catch the guy who, allegedly, did the shooting. He is charged with homicide, and more charges are expected.
The disregard for human life that is on display is astounding. Not shocking, really, since I read too many stories like this, but the level of ruthlessness and callous indifference toward someone's life, to execute them like this, I find more than a little disturbing.
I miss living in a civilized society.
