Ever wish you could ...

Go back to bed and start the day all over again???

Apparently this guy should have:

Of course, I wouldn't recommend that people take the law into their own hands, but in this case, it paid off. Quite a big risk for a free lunch, don't you think?

As a matter of fact, yes, I have, Stu. But this crook, at his age, needs a time machine - or a "Stealing for Dummys" book.

It was a risk and could have been foolish. But, at least he admitted it was a little stupid - but did think about his actions before rushing the ol' feller.

Good 'un, Stu

Unfortunately he will probably be sued for assault by the robber's attorney.

I think this guy shoudl run for office, a true model American, doing what's right above self. At least he wasn't like the other folks who ran out. Many others would say what they woul do in that situation but he actualy did it, senior with juevos.

I haven't foiled an armed robbery but I have interuppted a crime in progress when someone was trying to steal parts off of a vehicle at my local Ford Dealer one night. I wish I would have had a gun with me at the time, it would have made teh 5 minute wait fo teh cops to get there whie I held the criminal there a lot less stressful. He had a rachet and socket set in his arms and I had 225 lbs. of ****ed off adrenaline packed fury ready to fly armed with a large mag lite. Like I said, my rifle would have made it less stressful.

Not to mention the gun manufacturer will probably be sued for the crime taking place in the first place.
