Be sure to check out the surveillance video on the left side of the page. That clerk is ballsy as hell but my favorite part of the story has to be the amount of detail the writer decided to provide.

They smashed into display racks, knocking down cartons of cigarettes and an entire wall of adult magazines. Copies of Fetish Dolls, Best of Club and Oriental Women went flying off the top shelf, as did a stack of Playboy Magazines with Mariah Carey on the cover.

HAHAHA! That's great.

It's like that scene in Snatch! HILARIOUS!!

How does the writer know what went down so well?

What a dumbass.

 

[Kritish]

Isn't "grabs his gun" seem a little funny considering the context?

 

[lollycop]

no...its like the scene from Fast Times.

Man that guy does well under pressure. I think I'd have still shot the guy when he came in from the side. Aim low and hope to wound.

Who gets robbed three times? He must work in a really bad neighborhood.

The fact that (1) he knew what to do; and (2) he survived three robberies, including this one, just goes to show ya how God truly does work miracles. Otherwise, the guy would be dead.

Yeah. God had to have played a role. It all makes sense...I mean it's just stupid to think that since this is the third robbery the guy has endured he might have an idea of what to do in the situation. It's equally as stupid to assume that he survived because the robber was a complete idiot. Thank JESUS, PRAISE THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY!

if God did decide to intercede then why not just prevent the robbery from occurring in the first place?

It's what Thomas Wayne should have done

Aren't you a pacifist?

 

[Kritish]

Aren't you a pacifist?

I don't think so, if my memory is correct I think he's pro-gun, or at least doesn't wanted them banned. That and there's no such thing as a pacifist in a fox hole.

even though the b1tch ass video won't load, this guy is BAD ASS!! he's like the Bruce Willis of convenience store clerks . . . only not as bald or white

Free will. God gave it to us, and it gives us the freedom to choose, be it good ro evil. As for the robbery itself, how else would the guy have survived three robberies? Most who encounter robbers and try to stop them are killed.

I really don't even know what to make of that.

 

[Darthphere]

Did the robber say "Oh ****, my bad" or was it just me?

 

[Snipershot]

wow, wat a ******

most. not all. in fact, "most" is probably an exaggeration. as to how the clerk was able to survive three robberies - he was locked in the bathroom for the first robbery, and the second robber fled when Alam took a swing at the him. please explain to me exactly what role God played in any of these events.

of course! that's exactly what it shows us! ok, you've swayed me...god really does exist





couldn't just give the guy credit where it was due could you, it had to be your 'god' that takes the credit

or, just maybe, he knows what to do in this kind of situation. You act like a hail of bullet missed him at point blank range. He just foiled is 3rd robbery, probally because he was trained for that kind of sistuation.

 

[Ghostvirus]

Wow. This guys should really get another job. His luck is going to run out eventually.

 

[Dope Nose]

he doesn't need luck. he has God.
