    If the Bet You app was available in the States I’d be all over it. Open to other suggestions.

    ok then, by that premise, which she did go on record as saying, that she "was tired of getting robbed", does that mean that everyone that gets cut off on the road can start shooting now, cuz they are all tired of it?

    does that mean that everyone can start shooting up city hall cuz they are tired of paying taxes?

    if she is "let off" cuz she was tired, what's to stop all others to "be tired" and start shooting?

    she herself, her person, was never attacked. any business owner has insurance to pay for many things. sure there most likely will be a deductible, but that price for the bottle of booze stolen, was retail price, not the price she actually paid for it, meaning it was CHEAPER to replace


    and this will happen, even the best of the best lawyers like these guys

    will get the injured robber lots of money

    we all get "tired" of something, that does not mean we can go on a shooting spree.

    But now the next time some moron thief decides that they want to run out with some booze they have another possible consequence to consider as well.

    She has to face hers, now they won't really know for sure if they won't end up with an ### full of buckshot because the crazy old dude or lady running the place might just lose their minds.

    this could very well be true. anyone passing by that store, will know they very well may get shot.

    even if she loses it in a lawsuit, it'll still have a "reputation".

    Not just that store but any of them. You never know when the store owner might just increase the ante on the idiots who are used to facing little consequences.

    That’s IF she has a store left to return to.. Like I said if she loses the liquor license,that’s it-it won’t make any difference!

    And when someone loses a license like that word will spread like an out of control wildfire!

    Maybe the ####### was coming at her and decided to spin around when she was squeezing trigger?.

    That’s not gonna fly,especially when she said she was aiming at the floor,which suggests that she’s a lousy shot.
    Either way,she incriminated herself.

    I wonder if there’s a yearly cap on it?

    I mean go in every day get $800 worth of stuff and sell on Amazon.

    that’s like free inventory.


    #### I’m in the wrong job.
