Hi Everybody,
Just thought I'd share a disturbing incident that happened at the grocery store that my parents shop at (Portland Maine Shop N Save). The power went out in the store and the clerks told this man that he could not get his bottle deposit money until the power came back on, because the drawer will not open with no power. Well, the guy pulls out a gun and fires one shot at the clerk, which missed, and then tried two more times to shoot but the gun was jammed. I apologize for not having more details,but the news story was very brief. Bystanders wrestled the gun away from the guy and subdued him. Nice to hear that once in awhile
Anyway, one more reason for us law abiding people to carry--not every scumbag's gun jams.
BTW, this guy was a convicted felon. BUT he still got a gun. Boy doesn't gun control really work well?!?!?
