Down south in Florida for spring break and local boys try to rob them.
Of course the police say you should never do what these boys did, just acquiescent and all will be fine.

Now get this one of the thugs says "Give me the gun. We'll just leave." funny * right there.

    The one with his hands up has to feel a wee bit sheepish now that the photo is plastered all over the country and his home town.
    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    While I give a couple of those guys a A for bravery it could have gone really bad too, glad they weren't hurt and the bad guys lost that one!
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    First video of the day where something turns out OK.

    A lotttttt of good luck was required to keep the good guys from being shot or killed. The only other good thing that could have happened is someone kicking the perp in the head while he was down.

    I thought the same thing, either the gun wasn't loaded or the perp wasn't anxious to shoot someone. Of course it was a stolen Taurus, bum like that wouldn't actually buy a pistol. If he pulls that crap on an armed person he'll have far worse than just having his pistol taken away.

    They were lucky the bad guy did not want to kill anyone. He had several chances also.

    luck was on there side the fellows really did not want to shoot any one who knows how many times they got away with just pointing the gun
    I bet it was not loaded or they would not have still been arguing and get in the car and drive away
    glad it turned out in th eyoung mens favor .
    being a arm chain hind sight normal poster :shock: I think no way I would have let them drive off ,holding for the LEO would have been better ,, even better call the corner and saved the public a crap load of money in the future

    Either that dumbazz didn't know the safety from opposite on a Taurus or he didn't want to shoot. Lucky, and glad it turned out ok. The guys didn't disarm him correctly and the one guy just stood around,, :geek:

    As I have said before, the quality to today's crooks is very disappointing.

    Don't mess with us Hoosiers. :D
    It's too late for me, save yourself.

    Yeah, that one guy, the fourth guy, saw the other black guy emerge from the car to join the fight, he held his hands up to say "I don't want any trouble." Then he did nothing while the second black guy jumped in on his buddies.
    What a wimp! I hope he catches a bunch of grief. Can't stand a sissie.
