THIS is what you’d call STUPID

The following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree in Washington, DC appeared to be the robber’s first (and last), due to his lack of a previous record of violence, and his terminally stupid choices:
1. His target was H&J Leather & Firearms; A gun shop specializing in handguns.
2. The shop was full of customers – firearms customers.
3. To enter the shop, the robber had to step around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door.
4. A uniformed officer was standing at the counter, having coffee before work. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up, an d fired a few wild shots from a target pistol.
The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, the police officer with a 9mm GLOCK 17, the clerk with a 50 DESERT EAGLE, assisted by several customers who also drew their guns, several of whom also drew and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt in the exchange of fire.

That is what you call great Gun Control, gotta love the right to bear arms and carry. God Bless the warriors who have fallen to ensure our way of life and liberties!

To bad this doesnt happen more often

Another one for Snopes……….This one seems to be true…….although not completely

I would like to be a fly on the wall (a safe wall) and have seen that take palce. how crazy would that have been?
What an idiot

Well I will give him 1 slap on the back for not being totally dumb……at least he brought a gun to a gun fight instead of a knife to a gun fight.

Broncs

Imagine that……….finding stupid people in Washington DC.

Also intersesting that over 50% of the shots missed from what must have been short range.

I’m sure if there is any surveillance video it will soon be on the web some where! to the guys that were faster on the draw.

I guess he had an inflated ego befor all the holes

I would call that justice served..

Sounds like “suicide by cop” rather than actual stupidity. I understand its fairly common.

Snopes says Seattle, Washington. That makes more sense, DC has too many gun bans

I agree with Yellowdog, suicide by cop.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Ya know, its funny. Nobody right back to the guy that started this crude bothered to ask if the guy had a wife or family, was a good guy or any thing else about him but every one is so quick to call him every thing under the sun except human.
Stupid is as stupid does. When I read that I wondered what you called that Iraq vet that forced those law enforcement guys the other day up I94 to shoot and kill him even though they did every thing they could not too.
Stupid is as stupid does. New motto, as long as it doesn’t involve me, myself or I.
