Future Darwin Award Winner

[Slappie 9]

Ladies and gentlemen..... we may have a winner! he following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree in Washington USA 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, and fired a few wild shots from a .22 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 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 gun fire.

Here we are at the beginning of April and we already may have the 2005 winner of the Darwin Award. This guy is going to be hard to beat.

The idiot died of 4 gun shot wounds not 23, used a .380 not a .22, and... yeah, other than that was just an idiot.

Ok so the officer and the customers along with the shop owner fired 47 rounds and only hit the perp 4 times?

Now that is fucking hilarious!!


Oh and all you Ivan wannabes can kiss my ass.. I don't read ever fucking post in this forum. So drop the "your a dumbass we've seen that" crap.. It's old and not funny anymore.

Slappie, could you just go watch tv, read a book, get something to eat, take a nap or beat-off every once in awhile instead of reposting?

Not quite, dear Slappie. The customers drew but never fired. The officer and the owner fired an unknown (to me) nubmer of times. Significantly less than 47, I'm sure. The robber fired 3 times and I believe he didn't hit anyone.

ps - I wasn't "Ivaning" on you, just posting the link to the thread others mentioned. I couldn't care less, and it wasn't even in this forum. It was in the Corner.
