Quote of the day, "So you woke up stupid this morning?"


A friend of mine had something similar to this happen years ago....came out of a convenience store and as he was getting into the car, a guy opened the passenger door and jumped in with a knife and robbed him.

A would-be carjacker got more than he bargained for when he slipped into the car of an armed citizen in Georgia earlier this month.

Hashim Fannin, the car owner, said the attempted carjacking occurred just after he had pulled into a parking spot at the Family Dollar on Marietta Boulevard in northwest Atlanta. The suspect, Edgar Horn, hopped into the passenger seat when Fannin’s doors automatically unlocked.

“He told me, ‘You know what this is,’” Fannin said. That’s when Fannin pulled his gun out.

“I asked him to get out of the car, probably not in those exact words.”

“I told him no, there’s no leaving, leaving was before you hopped into my car … at this point there is not leaving,” Fannin said.

Fannin held Horn at gunpoint until police arrived.

I believe the technical term for that is victim selection failure.
