Convenience stores are not that convenient when the staff resists thuggery. A couple of thugs dead, more wounded, and no financial gain. That seems like a really poor way to go through life. “Life ain’t easy when you’re dumb and lazy.”
1: As happy as I am that the 7-Eleven employee was able to successfully defend herself, I have a bad feeling that 7-Eleven will, in a craven and cowardly manner, terminate her employment
2: Damelvian?? oh, brother
Damn Elvian.
I just realized his last name is Evans…cue for Florida’s “Damn…Damn…DAMN!!!!” meltdown
Damelvian

It dismays me to see the lack of situational awareness some display at gas stations and stop-and-robs. I almost went over and gave a young lady a lecture last night – she was more focused on her phone than on pumping her gas or watching her surroundings.
Sounds like whomever took that perps gun in TN was a much better shot than the perps were. Good on him/her.
Apparently John McLain lives in the Nashville area.
Holly cow took one of their guns and shot all of them? Two DOT two more ventilated?
