I just had a one on one conversation with John Robinson. He claims the employee was not injured and that her Uncle assaulted him for discharging the gun and striking her.
The Employee stated she had also been hit in the neck but John claims she popped a zit on her neck, it wasn't a bullet wound. "She popped it in my mirror in our bathroom."
Allegedly the Uncle came in quite upset and struck John in the chest. John claims he was pulling the clip out and when he pulled back the whachamajiger to put it on the safety and it just went off.
John claims the bullet disintegrated, (Dee, Dee, Deeee) and just disappeared. POOF! Obviously both parties wil be filing charges against one and other. Who do YOU think the victim is here.

He said she said. Just another tying up of our court system for nothing. If it was an accident than it was an accident. If its her word against his than they cancel each other out. This will not releive John R of any civil liability for this injury. If he is going to keep a loaded gun in his store (which he can) he should know how to use it properly and have a safe area to unload or "put it on safety".
If someone discharged a gun at or near one of my family members, I'd be assaulting him too. Its a clock shop, not a rifle range!
Sounds like he broke the cardinal rule. Keep your finger off the trigger until your ready to shoot! Newer handguns have multiple mechanisms in place to assure that the hammer doesn't strike the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled - regardless of whether its a revolver or semi-auto. On its face it seems the employee is the victim. Why would someone say that a bullet fragment struck them in the neck if they had popped a pimple? That just doesn't make sense to me. He's lucky the uncle didn't knock him down and t-bag him. HeHeHe.
Joe you forgot one important thing. This whole ordeal happened this morning before they opened and she worked all day. It was not until after her uncle assualted John did she claim any injury. Also, other people were in John's store and she never said anything to them?
They are both victims. One was an accident. The other was an assault.
What is she going to charge him with? Being an a$$hole? I see no laws that have been broken by John. Other than being a dumba$$!
Thanks for that update Mrs. Robinson.
And thank you John for that update. Or should I say, dumba$$? LOL
Careful Joe, JR will set your "CLOCK".
reckless endangerment
I have been around firearms all of my life, handguns and long guns. If he doesn't practice safe gun handling he has no business owning one. He is the kind of person that gives gun owners a bad name. If he had discharged a gun with one of my kids in the store, I would have shoved it up his butt and discharged it again. What an ASS.
John alreasy "set my clock" once and it's still broken.
whoops, already.
There was this fire fighter who was showing another fire fighters wife how to use a pistol that she was going to borrow, well the fire fighter ended up shooting a hole in his house....

Why are you trying to start shit about this person again. Don't you think you people have done enough damage to him and his family.

Why don't you tell the rest of the story...like how he told her not to say anything because he could loose his business and/or his gun permit.
Oh yeah and then tell everyone how John told the police that she wasn't even an employee at the store, that she was just a customer.
She is a young woman who was scared and didn't know what to do at the time, possibly in shock?? Wouldn't you be in shock if someone 'accidentally' discharged a gun while standing right beside you in a store?
You know what Joe? I have read your blog for sometime now I have never met John R. so I gave him the benefit of the doubt when you dogged him. But after this I have to agree with everything you have ever said about him! and to borrow your famous one line........
IDIOT!!!!
Anon 12:10 brought up a good point. Someone better check withholding on this young lady to see if she is a real employee or an illegal employee. If she is a customer and spent the whole day in his shop, it's more involved then we think. LOL Makes ya go Hmmmmmmm. John wouldn't do that......would he?
Why would someone want to play cowboy with a gun in your business and there was no threat?
I got my first gun when I was 14, I was taught you always assume that the gun is loaded therefore the which-a-ma-jigger wouldn't have been handled and it wouldn't have went off.
What was he trying to prove by handling a gun in front of an employee or anyone? He's a man? So stupid I bet his knuckles still drag the ground.
If I had a store and kept a gun there even my best friend wouldn't see me pull it out unless I intended to use it. Even unloading can cause accidents. People have killed themselves trying to clean a gun.
All I can say, with him, I believe it.
Hey Joe:
NO HARM = NO FOUL
Play ball!
A- for the story, F- for that terrible photo. Maybe you should get that camera looked at again......
I remember John saying that he wished he had served in the U.S. armed forces but was turned down because of a disability. There's a reason that not everyone is fit to serve and John is a prime example.
Well ya know, he was undercover narcotics for the USCG and he worked undercover narcotics in Philly and then there was the FBI that he worked for undercover. The only thing undercover is his freakin brain.
Somehow this does not surprise me in the least. I was in there picking up a watch that I had dropped off to be repaired about 2 weeks ago. I talked with a young employee who was behind the counter and she was very pleasant. I asked her a few questions about my repair and she wasn’t real sure of the answers but informed me that John would be right in. I tried to joke with her about her lack of knowledge and she became very scared and begged me not to inform John about it because he would yell at her. He showed up and seemed very tweaked. He started in on her and belittled and berated her in front of me. He verbally insulted her and her lack of knowledge and then yelled at her because the radio was on the wrong station. I wouldn’t talk to my dog like that and it was very clear this young lady was terrified of him. It made me feel very uncomfortable and I even ventured to ask if they were related because of the way he was talking to her. I couldn’t understand why this young lady didn’t quit right then and there. I am sure that if this is the same employee, she is too terrified to tell the entire truth. One thing is for sure, I will never take my business there again just because of how he treated his staff and he didn’t care that he did it in front of the customers. The repair was ok and watch worked afterwards but he didn’t even bother to clean up the watch after the repair. Even so I would still have given him return business if he had not of shown his true character by is ill treatment and disrespect of a fellow human being.
One general rule of business is that you never discipline an employee in front of others, it's just not the professional way to go about it.
I have also learned that you don't discipline an employee until after their shift is over unless you already have a backup in case the employee quits and walks out. Then your customers suffer. I feel sorry for that girl.
I think John is a complete idiot. Are you kidding me firing a gun in your shop?? If you don't know if the gun is loaded or not how do you have a gun license? And why would you have a hurt employee and make them work the rest of their shift? .. then say "please don't tell anyone"? That's just STUPID. I know if that was my dad John would have been lucky to be standing after he got finished with him. That poor young girl has every right to file charges.
stupid John. you get what u deserve.
Joe, sad to say but you and John deserve each other.
