A little bat would have been more PC than a knife. Probably less fatal too.

That kid is in trouble.

“I was scared for my life,” Nguyen told The Post on Friday. “When they came in, one of them had a bag in front of him like he had a firearm or something. I didn’t have much time to think. I grabbed my knife right next to the register.”

Three person robbery operation

I have no problem with what the clerk did

Store owner is a hero for what he did for very obvious.

Good thing that the store clerk was Asian, otherwise the liberals would have taken out their Race Card.

Ouch!
Fuck around and find out.
Off the subject: this illustrates how most people view their property, it’s almost an extension of themselves and they will do anything to protect it.

When did this country start questioning if someone has a right to defend their property? Someone needs to fuck these people up. Society can't function with a whole class of people undermining honest and decent people.

Did you hear the guy at the end say "Oh, I'm dead, I'm dead."?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes bitch.

When people defend their property it makes me smile.

My family immigrated to the USA for freedom and so we can compete fairly. Protection of property is absolutely critical for fair competition.

Just another fake incident craftily staged and recorded to split the country along conservative and liberal lines, and of course distract us from the real criminals in power.

I bet you say the same thing about Car Jackings when the driver is shot in the head and his pregnant wife is ran over.
Playing the middle against both sides is not an argument. Sometimes facts stand on their own, and aren't set for debate.

If or when you are presented with a life threatening crime victim scenario, will you use any resource available to you to neutralize the threat, or will you just go down as an apologetic victim?

Not saying violent crime doesn’t happen, not saying violent self defense is never justified. I’m only saying a violent incident will only become a national story if there is some delicious irony or ambiguity in there to divide the nation, and that can only work if the story is 100% controlled, and that control can’t happen if it’s a real incident.

The streets would be burning if a white guy defended his property like that.

Leftists drive this. To them, there is no property. Everything belongs to everyone.

It’s a horribly naive point of view that ignores how people in power will simply take advantage. It’s been going on in Los Angeles for a couple decades. The idea that cops can’t respond to property crimes due to staffing and other priorities is false and always has been. It’s the leftist politicians who de prioritized response to property crimes.

I love the store owner here. Good for him. The more videos like this, the less criminal actions.

the store owner

was 22 years old. The perp was 17. Kids. The whole incident is tragic.

We'll see more and more of this as police continue to be politicized and militarized against the people.

It certainly is some nasty shit. I can't imagine stabbing someone to death but, hey, I believe a person has a right to defend themselves and their stuff. When you steal someone's stuff, you aren't just stealing stuff. No, you're stealing someone's labor. Someone's time. Someone's time is equal to a part of their very life. You are stealing a part of someone's life. Stop stealing. That is the biggest lesson to learn in this situation imo.

I don’t think it’s tragic at all. People tried to rob someone. The someone had good reason to fear for his safety and sought to protect himself, using deadly force to do so. As it should be. Hopefully ccw use expands with the recent SCOTUS rulings, everyone of these type incidences go viral, and imbeciles decide that it’s not worth it to rob someone.

The tragedy is that our civilization has come down to incidents like this.

Rule of law has turned into law of the jungle.

I'm guessing this was in Los Angeles... Hope he's got a gun now.

Then we agree. And yes the police are somewhat being used as pawns. Certainly the influence of George Soros on DA elections has had massive influence on this. That the msm largely ignores this situation, or in the case of the corrupt evil assholes that write for the LA Times support Soros and his reforms, is the true tragedy. There’s certainly no reason to support these reforms that lead to the average citizen at elevated crime risk

I can't wait until the dust settles - I'm stuck in the PRNYS, and the legislative fuckery around the recent SCOTUS decision will take several years and multiple lawsuits to beat down the commiecunts and their unconstitutional and assinine bullshit laws. CCL - soon, not as soon as I want, but in the meantime I've got my long guns.

Anyone have any speculation as to why George Soros cares so much about the US Legal system? I know the Dems are using it only to get votes, but I really don’t understand why Soros has such a stake.

He wants his own private justice system, whose rules suit his own purposes. We have a precedent - Hitler and the brown shirts, who fomented so much chaos and lawlessness, that when Hitler rose to power, the people and the Reichstag voted him dictatorial powers.

Soros (who lived through the Fascist revolutions of the 1930's) knows this playbook well. His aim is to sufficiently destabilize societies so that the people cry out for a strongman to "restore order." This strongman will be given dictatorial/totalitarian power over these societies, and will be chosen by Soros to implement exactly the policies that Soros wants.

It's almost like the movie "The Boys from Brazil," where Nazi doctors scheme to create dozens of cloned Hitlers to ultimately seize power and rule the world.

So power hungry madman who can’t run for US President but wants to be president and turn the US into a dictatorship…

He’s awfully old to still be trying.

In the heat of the moment, you might do something like this, but over the course of days and weeks, you're going to realize you killed somebody for trying to steal some shit, and it was just some stupid kid that probably did it on a dare. You think it won't fuck you up, but I bet it will fuck you up a little.

When that 22 year old kid that killed the 17 year old kid, I will bet money he's going to think "shit, I just lived twice as long as that stupid asshole that tried to rob me a lifetime ago at that shit job I had".

I don’t put anything involving physical intimidation in that manner as “stupid”.

Theft is stupid. Walking into a place expecting nothing will happen because there’s more of you or you’re armed or whatever is evil. It’s the core definition of evil really…I want your possessions and I don’t care if I hurt you in the process of taking them or not.

Nevada has both Castle Doctrine and Stand your ground. It’s fucking awesome, not to mention good right and salutary. And castle doctrine extends to your vehicle.

In this case, neither is needed as the store employee had no reasonable means of escape and also had reason to fear imminent harm. The “kids” were committing evil and paid the price from a good guy looking to not die that day. Try the assholes as adults and toss them in prison for 15-20 years.

I’ve seen videos of the store owner give interviews from his store about the experience days later.

He’s only able to do so because he was in Nevada.

I was talking about this case to my liberal friend. He asked me why I’m pulling politics into this incident. I told home simple, because the outcome for the store owner depends on where the incident happened.

Knives have become such a huge problem, Congress is working on it- first no more steaks, that eliminates the need for knives, then we'll ban iron ore so no more knives can be made. We'll print 80 trillion dollars to buy back all knives, if that's not enough we'll use SS funds.
