Wonder if McCarthy will start reporting crime stats now that the FBI has quietly revised crime numbers to include only some of the high crime jurisdictions.
The proprietor should be packin' and let the chips fall where they may if and when it comes to a jury
These smoke shops need to offer hazard pay and bullet proof vests to anyone willing to work there.
Always something going down at these.
Professor McCarthy of MC teaching fame
Most likely will just keep doing the same
His Interviewing and Investigating lectures
Bring in a few extra bucks with conjectures.
And his business may go up in smoke.
It's that dang liberal FBI that made crime go up under Trump and down under Biden!
MCPD publishes a weekly crime summary on their website, as well as an annual report. I don't think they are hiding anything.
"Strong-arm" -- Is that like in football when the running Fullback stuff arms & face masks another player or was a weapon implied or used?
4:56: Strong-arm means the use or threat of physical force not involving a weapon. If a suspect merely implies having a gun, even if it is not shown (I.e. a hand in a jacket pocket raised toward the victim), the incident is then classified as an armed robbery.
11:27, the true numbers come out after its too late.
-another duped by the Gubmint we "elect."
@11:27 Reading is fundamental but liberals only read the "facts" that support their latest fallacy. Don't believe your lying eyes...
Funny how there seems to be absolutely no video security cameras in or around this target of opportunity. Is the merchant too cheap to install a simple device to record his clients and enemys?
Anyone see where New Orleans just recently allowed Constitutional Carry and the crime numbers look good if not decidedly improved? 26 States now I think!
@1:00 Then the FBI revisions which show a significant increase rather than a decline as touted by the left not to mention the reclassification of crimes to allow the current administration to look much better than they should.
No worries, if Trump gets elected, they'll go back to actual counting and the MSM will discover investigative journalism after their 4-year vacation from reality.
100% legal to protect business with a firearm. I would absolutely be armed if I were a shopkeeper anywhere near here.
An armed Society is a Polite society.
False.
I spend as much time in West Virginia as I do here, and WV is Constitutional Concealed Carry and it is overwhelmingly more polite! Absolutely, and I believe anyone who knows would attest to that!
