sassnetguy50 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Is a screwdriver a common stick up weapon? Why did he have his lasso in the seven eleven? Was he waiting for the chance to imitate this guy who was on horseback? https://www.nbcnews.com/video/man-on-horseback-lassos-alleged-bike-thief-703476803825 Respect for lassoing the criminal.

Sedalia Dave Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Local DFW radio said the Cowboy was working in the 7-Eleven as an unarmed security guard to prevent shoplifting but none of the print stories have called him anything other than a clerk. The Dallas Police Chief did make a statement that he should have let the police handle it rather than confront the robber. He didn't have an actual lasso but after getting into an altercation with the would be robber he managed to grab a piece of rope or cord and used it to hog tie the idiot. The idiot did however manage to stab the guy in the back several times with the screwdriver but none of the wounds were serious. Short video clip of a very uncomfortable robber.

Actually a screwdriver is a fairly common weapon, especially with felons and other dirtbags. Generally there's no charge for carrying a concealed screwdriver (unless because of the circumstances it's considered a burglary tool) whereas carrying a knife or firearm can get you locked up.

Pat Riot Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I believe robbery to be a stepping stone crime. I believe on the 2nd robbery, at conviction the sentence should be a mandatory 3 years of hard labor in a prison just for robbers. The sentence should culminate in tattooing of the forehead with the word “Robber”. I believe that if prisons were segregated by crime that morons that commit “stepping stone” crimes couldn’t network and build “street cred”. Of course that would somehow be inhumane to some members of society, I’m sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't tell, but was the perp tied by his two wrists and one leg? And if so, did the security cameras tell how quickly before the cowboy raised both hands in the air! Does the cowboy normally tuck a couple of "piggin" strings under his belt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I'd be 100% behind branding the SOB after you got him down and hogtied....right on his forehead. Should say something like DUMBASS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
