Ya, I’ll bet there is a lot more to this story
than just a robbery.
Since when is a holdup guy a ‘victim’????
No, my heart does not bleed for them.
Notice the repeating that he is a retired cop. A retired cop is just an ordinary citizen but given special privileges like carrying a gun. Something other ordinary citizens cannot do in Jowsey. Guess he is better than 99% of the rest of the population.
Don’t blame the retired cop. Blame the legislators, and then elect better ones.
