ATLANTA CROOK MAKES FATAL MISTAKE BY THINKING PATRONS IN LINE FOR $180 SHOES WON’T EXERCISE 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHT

Atlanta News, Weather, Traffic, and Sports | FOX 5
A crook in Atlanta made a fatal mistake on Saturday when he tried to rob patrons in line for the new, $180 Lebron James shoes: The lawbreaker was shot dead after a customer used his gun to fight back. And there’s incredible surveillance video showing the moment the customer decided to exercise his Second Amendment right.

Patrons had been lining up all week — at least of them one since last Monday — to get the new Nike LeBron X EXT shoes. And according to WSB-TV, a parking attendant had warned buyers outside the store Wish in the Little Five Points area that someone had been pick-pocketing patrons. Around 5:30am on Saturday, he apparently struck.

Reports indicate the crook used a gun to try and rob everyone one in line. But one person wasn’t having it. An armed citizen in line used his own gun to fight back — he opened fire on the man and hit him. The crook ran a little ways before collapsing and dying.

Here's the most important story-inside-the-story: The reporter stated that not one person in line for a pair of shoes left the line after the killing.
Are you kidding me????
Imagine if you were in line for the movies, and there was a shoot-out where a person got killed right next to you. I don't know about you, but that would pretty much destroy the day for me.
But in today's world (and it's coming to a theater near you very soon) it's like a fender-bender. A shooting and killing has all the weight of a traffic accident.
Here's the scenario:
"Hey Antwan, did you get the shoes you wanted."
"Yeah...But I had to wait in a long line a long time."
"Was everybody in line behaving?"
"Yeah...Except for one guy. We killed him."
"Let me see your shoes."

Gun control - he used both hands and had a good stance. Good shot!

Yah, cause the average working person has $180 to spare on a pair of shoes, let alone wait all night and go to work the following day. Also I believe if it was a white person conducting the shots fired this would be a totally different story...
