I’ve been in this exact same situation at a local convenience store called Circle K here in Tucson Arizona. It was only a couple days after buying my first handgun after turning 21. I worked overnight and frequently got beer runs and the occasional jump over the counter robbery. Nothing crazy and I did fine with that. Only once before had I gotten robbed at gunpoint but that was before I got a gun and was almost easy to handle. Low stress. You could feel the energy in the room and the energy radiating off of the kid that was robbing me and could instantly tell that he wasn’t committed to anything and if anything was fearful. On top of that, when he had first showed up he racked the weapon and the at another point, I saw him rack it again. I had noticed nothing ejected from the weapon and instantly knew that either it was empty or it was not a real handgun. So that first one went by smoothly and I wasn’t too scared but the last time I got robbed two guys showed up and they instantly dominated the space. The first guy jumped on top of the counter and started screaming. I saw that he had a handgun so all my attention was focused on him. I saw the other guy behind him but I didn’t see a gun in his hand and my mistake was taking my attention off of him and not considering him an equal threat to the first guy. So I attempted to draw my weapon and as I grabbed it the second guy that ran around the counter pulled a gun from his jacket and started screaming at me and that’s when I put my hands up and said whoa all right. By the grace of God and their own mercy they spared me and took my gun instead. They were talking to each other saying “this nigga tried to pull out on us” and we’re talking shit and that scared me because I thought they were going to decide to. But they told me to open up the register, put the tray of money on the counter, and then open up the second register and do the same thing. It got very sketchy because I didn’t know the code to open up that register so I was telling them that I don’t care about Circle K or the money or anything but I literally can’t open up this register on my life. I don’t have the code. They seemed very upset and agitated about that and that began getting my heart racing even more but luckily they just took a bottle of Hennessy and left. That was one of the most shameful times in my life because I tried to carry a weapon without experience or training or practice only a couple days after I first acquired it after my 21st birthday and I didn’t pay enough attention to the second guy and make him an equal threat to the first. I almost lost my life that day over my ignorance and I’ll never forget it.

Killing one. 👍

Always enjoy your analysis. Thanks for what you do!

I have NO combat experience, but i do have a lot of common sense. the problem is also the way the store is set up. Store Owners...never set up your counters this way, it allows people to surround your employees from multiple angles and divides your employees attention. Setting up display cases like this forces your employees to work inside the kill zone and criminals to construct kill zones. The poor guy is trapped in a corner behind see thru display cases. The main floor display shelves are blocking direct line of sight to the front door which hides the 4th criminal coming in and immediately drawing his gun. Seeing this fourth guy come in could have bought him the relization time he needed to act first. The damn employee door is outside the display cases...WTH?!?!

To me that means there wasn’t going to be a survivor to testify against someone or ones. He probably had limited training, and I think if he didn’t do what he did, he isn’t alive when it’s over. I am not in any way disputing you, at all. I’m a follower, a fan, and I learn something of the highest value from you all the time.

"where they can go work at walmart" mate, walmart has been on a hiring freeze for a minute, Most places arent hiring right now because their profits are dropping hard, Society has decayed because a generation of parents got fucked over by baby boomers and are stuck struggling to make ends meet, Then kids grow up seeing that and see the easy money in drugs, or robbery, and choose that because its either die to the police, make some money or get three hots and a cot for several years. It isnt even the parents that failed the kids, Its the baby boomers that rigged the system in their favor and decided to say fuck you to everyone else, Look at social security. Its supposed to be a retirement fund for seniors leaving the workforce after they pay to it for their entire career. Where did that money go? Into government projects. Dont blame the parents, Open up your blinders and look at the bigger issues out there, A government that cant be trusted, With media lying to our faces at every turn, Idiots rallying for gun control because some jackasses with illegal guns are doing illegal shit, Or people pushed well past their breaking point doing illegal shit. There is a cause and effect for everything, and when you really get down to the brass tacks of it, the entire system has failed the people. Students get bullied, report it to their teachers and the school turns a blind eye until the kid snaps and strikes back, and now that kid is the villain. We have a police force that is there to enforce traffic laws and investigate crimes after they happen, not protect the populace, We have global corporations dropping super packs for candidates for government to make sure they get elected and stay in their pocket, We're constantly sending our soldiers to be world police, and all the while our country is falling apart at the seams. Its so clear that the agenda is against us so much that the government actively agrees with rioters to keep the public eye off of themselves, Diverting attention away from where it needs to be, Hell KZread is censoring hard and harrassing people who are in the way of their own agenda of information control. Are there fucked up parents out there, yep, Could a lot of crime have been avoided if everyone had a loving and caring household? Nope. You get bad eggs no matter what you do, and sometimes life takes a loving family and fucks it with a drunk driver or a medical problem that results in a fatality, and now you have a kid with no parents, thrown into a the foster system, a system so easily abused that you have career fosters who take on 12 kids, tell em to figure it the fuck out and live off of the fat government stipends. Youve got people that sit around and just do drugs all day and get paid by the government because of how easy the system is to game. again, Just look at the bigger picture brother, It is so, so much worse than a simple generational issue.

Mike, this is nothing new for SO CAL. In 1995 I was working for a 6 billion dollar multi-national company. We had a local office just north of downtown LA, located in a commercial/light industrial area. Our office/shop was surrounded by a ~14 foot chain-link fence topped with razor wire. The employee parking lot was located outside the fence, across a street. When employees, especially females, were arriving at or leaving work they were escorted by at least two guards armed with AR-15's, to protect them from robbery; kidnap; rape or murder. That was 1995!!!!! Things have got nothing but worse. How do you ever fix this mess? Government, especially the California government is unlikely to help!!!

If it was my store I’d have at least a loose brick barrier to get behind. They used distraction and unarmed human shields. Sales guy should have a carbine slung across his chest. Not a pistol in a holster.

Doing visibly armed security work without armor is absolute peak retardation IMO. I was shot at in a drive by when I still did security for no reason other than someone wanted to shoot somebody. All of a sudden my coworkers that made fun of me for wearing armor were suddenly very interested in where I got my vest.

I must disagree with Mike and nearly every other guntube tactical commentator- in a multiple opponent encounter, it is ARMOR that is critical, NOT round volume. robbers run as soon as you discharge a single round. if you plan to trade 12, 15, 30 rounds against multiples, you will be out of cover into a wall of lead. armor is the first thing you should take if you expect this type of situation.

Great Analysis!

That kid wacking the firearm around with one hand wouldn't have hit an elephant at the same distance like that lmao

The fact that the clerk has to wear body armor every day is insane. Then there is no place for him to escape like a (side door) and no cover thats bullet proof to get behind. America has gone third world for sure and its sad.

The guy in the light blue jeans was shot by the security guard and ended up dying, so they're pinning his death on his buddies.

Thanks for your analysis. Good to have a Professional analyze current crime waves. A year ago my neighbor was at a smoke shop and drew on two that were going to rob her as she left. They backed off when she drew on them w/out incident. They approached her at her car. Watch yourself at Smoke Shops they draw a dangerous crowd. I'm in a town w/ pop. 100,000 so it's small.

Ooooo, I love the Dirt Nap Channel. I could watch this all day. Saw a man who stole some dirt nap in a box and another wanted a pint of dirt nap.

I took a friend who cannot drive to the smoke shop (I do not smoke. I like owning guns LOL) When we were there I immediately sized the place up and determined that it would be incredibly easy to rob and they deal only in cash because of federal banking laws so there would be lots of it there. I'm surprised more of them do not get hit. This guy did good. He made a fight and survived the fight.

One small criticism, these should not be called "young men". They are not men of any type. The real issue in this nation is we have a generation that don't fear the Lord.

You ask how these young men can throw their lives away for such petty things. I’ve been saying for years that peer pressure is a nearly unsurmountable force. The music they listen to, the videos they watch and their circle of friends makes it cool to roll like that. They’re not doing it to put food on the table or a roof over their head. They’re doing it to be cool. That’s what has to change and all the gun laws and all the money in the world won’t do it. Examples and mentors from within their neighborhood is the only way it will change.

If you take torso hits and subsequently die, you did not win the gunfight even if you killed all 4 of them. A tie is a loss in a gunfight.
