Happened a couple of days ago, home-boy runs right into an armed citizen...... this sort of stuff doesn't happen in Chicago, Wash. D.C. NYC etc. Happens all the time here in Arizona. I think we have about 100,000 CCW holders.


Armed citizens take down suspect robber; getaway driver on the loose

With the help of two armed citizens, police arrested one man in connection with armed robberies at three different pharmacies, but they believe another suspect -- the getaway driver -- is still out there. Not only is James Johnson, 43, facing charges of armed robbery, police say more charges could be coming. According to Sgt. Trent Crump of the Phoenix Police Department, Johnson hit three pharmacies -- one in Glendale and two in Phoenix -- in a single day. It started at 9:30 a.m. on Monday, March 25. Crump said Johnson walked into J&J Arrowhead Pharmacy just northeast of 67th Avenue and Union Hills Drive, pulled a handgun on an employee and demanded OxyContin. Pills in hand, Johnson fled the store and was spotted getting into the passenger seat of a black Ford Expedition. Less than two hours later, Johnson, still armed, allegedly walked into Estrella Pharmacy near the Loop 101 Agua Fria Freeway and Thomas Road, about a 20-minute drive from the first scene, and pointed his weapon at a pregnant employee. Crump said Johnson gave that employee a note demanding OxyContin pills. She shared that note with other employees, which is when things took a turn.

It does happen in Chicago, except our Mayor, aka "9.5", aka "the ballerina", aka fill in the blank _________wants them charged for defending their home and family.

My brothers and I shake our heads in embarrassment and collective disgust.

Armed robbery? In today's vernacular, that's a "Non-Resident Withdrawl". :rolleyes:

Update: My wife majored in dance and forbids me from associating him with ballerinas, as he is an embarrassment to them also.
