Planet of the Apes?
Wow.
This is why you can't pay me enough to live in the states.

Yes, but WE have hope and change!!!!
I'm not sure who is worse...these petty shoplifters or the thieves on Wall Street in charge of my 401k or the senators and congress critters that do legal insider trading.
Not all the YooEss is like that. and I don't know exactly where this happened, but Silver Spring is kind of diverse... there's affluent areas, and not-so-affluent areas. One theme in common though (and this holds true for all the Metro DC area) is a definite theme of selfishness and entitlement. Or as they'd say in another group I used to frequent, "MFFY."
The farther away I am from downtown DC and/or the Maryland suburbs, the happier I am (and the nicer and more reasonable the people become.)

And just which planet do you actually live on?

1300 miles away seemed to do it for me.
This happened in DC. I was watching closely to see which Congress Critters were doing the pilfering.
Anyway, hardly the worse thing that happens in any big city or even small ones.

and thank YOU with your foreign mentality to stereotype all Americans by looking at ONE video from a crime ridden area. I suppose where you live there is ZERO crime, right?
Christopher Young inproperly top-poasted:
Yuk.
For several different reasons, that is also not a place you could pay me to live.
Nice try.
But I'll tell ya, I bet lots of americans wouldn't mind having a wallet full of canadian currency right now - better than having an empty wallet like most of them do.
Typical american. Always got to find some way to work a gun into a conversation.
Well good. You spend your last greenback buying another gun.
And enjoy yourself while you fondle it as you sit on the front porch of your forclosed home.
More power! 'Ar, 'ar, 'ar.

$7.25 but some states set it higher. Florida is $7.31

That figures.
Situations like this are usually constrained by corporate policy. That is, no employee may have a gun on company property.
If the business is privately owned, guns are often found in the shop. In the LA riots some years ago, the Korean shopkeepers were passed over by the rioters because these shop owners had, and displayed, their firearms.
In the case mentioned here, I refer you to Texas law on the subject:
Sec. 9.42. DEADLY FORCE TO PROTECT PROPERTY. A person is justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property: (2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly force is immediately necessary: (A) to prevent the other's imminent commission of arson, burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal mischief during the nighttime; or (B) to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property;

Not if it means I'd have to bail you out...
Ooooooo, that is so racist. ^_^

Enough? Yes. Too many? NO!
