There’s poor victim selection skills, and then there’s this.
Retired Marine stops armed robbery at Altoona bar
by Sierra Darville

ALTOONA, Pa. (WJAC) — Altoona police said a retired Marine Corps combat veteran disarmed a man trying to rob a bar early Tuesday morning.

According to police, a black man walked into Ajay’s Bar on Maple Avenue sometime around 1 a.m and attempted to rob the bar. Police said the retired Marine, who was bartending, was able to disarm the robber while he was handing over money from the cash register.

Police said the two got into a struggle, and one round was fired from the gun. Neither of them were hit by the bullet, but police said they believe the suspect has obvious facial injuries from being hit with the gun.

Police said the bartender wasn’t hurt.

According to police, the would-be robber got away and fled on foot northbound across Maple Ave. A blood trail led police to the backyard of a home on not far from the bar.

“Police added that the two men knew each other through a mutual friend”

Uh oh.

“A blood trail….”
If the would-be robber is ever caught, I’d love to see the mugshot.

what is the firearm the young lady is holding? The trees and shadows in the background make it hard to make out…

Looks like something from the MAC 10 family with a custom stock and barrel shroud.

MI Ranger

Looks like a AR-9 (AR-15 pattern rifle in 9mm). Looks like a collapsible stock, but it is probably an “Arm brace” due to the barrel length.

Cthulhu

AR-9 do not load through the grip.

Lars is a fan of Julia’s, I guess. He came in here to ease his way into a dissertation on something or other, to set us straight, to enlighten, and to bedazzle with his wrongness/wrongitude/wrongidity.

Cthulhu

Who is Julia?

It was your link, Lars. Julia Tourianski. That’s her pic. That’s her site. Need more? Run it yourself.

I just did a google image search for a site with a higher resolution image.

“two outcomes: death & freedom”

Yep, death to oppressors!

Freedom from oppressions!

Atlanta getting as bad as Chicagostan.

Altoona; dumbass, didn’t yo Mama tell you nothing good happens at 1 am?

A significant element of my having freedom is for the government to LEAVE ME ALONE. There are more than enough laws governing almost every aspect of my life. I don’t need more government intervention in my life. I think I can figure out which lightbulb to use w/o instruction from Uncle Sam. I also know which head to use.

Not much can be added to that, Chief.
