Defensive Gun Use of the Day: Staying Frosty Edition
Posted on August 20, 2012 by Dan Zimmerman   

You don’t have to visit Las Vegas in August to know it can get hot there, what with Moe Green building it in the desert and all. So maybe the dude who strolled into a local DQ yesterday wearing a mask and waiving a 3-foot Samurai sword just needed a Dilly Bar really badly. Sometimes you just gotta cool down a little, right? Only that’s apparently not really what the unidentified stickup man was after. And he didn’t get what he bargained for, either . . .

    Homicide Lt. Ray Steiber said that although rare, robbery attempts with swords have occurred in the Las Vegas Valley.

    “I’ve seen it before,” Steiber said. “It’s a deadly weapon in the right hands, and preliminarily, it appears he was using it as a deadly weapon.”

The boys from homicide were on the scene because when the unidentified swordsman waived his katana around and demanded cash, one of the employees on duty kept his cool and administered a well-deserved double tap, sending him staggering back out the door. The would-be slasher was rushed to a local hospital, but assumed room temperature shortly thereafter.

We don’t know what the DQ corporate policy concerning associates carrying while on duty is, but we hope the heroic employee in question gets something like Peanut Buster Parfaits for life rather than a pink slip. Stay tuned.

*******

I will never smirk at another Dairy Queen employee again,.....

"To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic."

Hope he keeps his job.

Apparently Ted never watched the movie "Rob Roy", it's the peasant mentality, from which we get the word "piss ant".

I actually liked Rob Roy, it dragged a bit, but the story and movie were overall very well done.

Not sure the connection to Ninja Boy, and his DQ dispatcher, but I think the guy at DQ making a working man's wage, felt threatened and dealt with the threat accordingly...

Roy was a cattleman who worked his way up from peasantry, defaulted on his investments, and branded an outlaw, fought a feud like the Hatfields and McCoys, was captured, convicted, and summarily pardoned, and died broke.

I fought the law, and the law won, would be more fitting.....

My comment was about your Ted Nugent quote.
That's why I highlighted it.

What happens in Vegas....
well...
becomes a viral news blurb.

"Never bring a knife to a gun fight."

I'd say "Only in Vegas", but that isn't exactly true

[Solus]

Don't bring a knife to a gun fight.

A sword doesn't fare so well either.
