Glad that no one was seriously injured although I do wish that they'd have caught the guy or gotten a good look at him before he got away. By the way, this isn't a bad part of town. Perhaps others are thinking of another part of Holloway Street some miles away from this location. But nowadays, regardless of your location, you just never know what people are up to.

Well at least the foolish manager was only shot in the arm. He might as easily been killed along with some hapless customer(s) hopefully , as would be the case with most chain businesses, he will be fired......piene2.... I can't help but wonder how YOU think he should of reacted?? Just give the robber the money and everything would have been alright?? I'm sure that is what went through UNC's student body president right before the two robberws shot her in the head with a shotgun... What about the old lady who was carjacked in front of her apartment in broad daylight?? Or the old man that ran his tire shop for many, many years before he was killed by a disgruntled customer?? No piene2 that stance may work from where you're from but they aren't working around here!!! It's way past time to fight fire with fire!!! No law breaking individual will want to rob someone if they KNOW that the individual they're about to rob is carrying a gun... Would you want to?? Cudos to that manager for not

"Well at least the foolish manager was only shot in the arm. He might as easily been killed along with some hapless customer(s) hopefully , as would be the case with most chain businesses, he will be fired."

So what, he should just roll over? Your attitude is exactly the kind that lead to so many people getting killed in Aurora because not one of those people had the ability to defend themselves.

Liberal lawyers are the reason why businesses fire employees who defend themselves. It has gotten to the point where a criminal can sue for injuries they obtained while breaking into your home.

He may well be fired, but if he worked for me, he would not be. I don't care about the money, but if he could save one patron's life by carrying a pistol, then more power to him.

I'm in a business where I work very late at night during certain months. I don't keep any cash on hand. This is the first year that I've carried a gun with me just to walk 50 feet to my car. I intend to do it every night in the future. I'm in the process of applying for my concealed carry permit. I don't plan to carry a gun with me at all times, and I never ever want to use it.

But if someone does try to mug me in the wrong part of town late at night, I want to be prepared to protect myself and my family.

I say kudos to the manager. He should be given a raise and should not be fired.

I do not agree with Piene2's comments. Just suppose - as has happened in many other situations in thie country - that the robber came in and starting robbing the individual customers and his mask came loose. Just suppose he starts shooting the place up like has been done in theaters and other places. Just suppose..............

Would you rather have the manager with a gun to maybe protect some of the patrons, or have him unarmed and defenseless patrons can be shot at will by the bad guy.

Face it......the bad guy came in with a LOADED GUN. He used the gun. What's to say if the manager hadn't pulled his personal weapon that the bad guy wouldn't have shot someone that looked at him wrong.

Others have said this is a bad part of town. People will kill you for no reason at all in this day and time. Too many people have shown no respect for life. (continued)
