Robbing store clerks is, unfortunately, not an uncommon issue. In many cases, the clerk either gives up the money or they get hurt. However, there are some stories that end much differently. In a recent story, one clerk was not going to be a victim, and this is something that the robber certainly did not expect. When you watch the video, while guns were involved, the entire incident is largely non-violent. This incident happened in September 2013, but it is being reported in recent news.

The situation happened in a Marionville, Missouri liquor store. A man came in and appeared to want to get some money and free stuff from the store. Unfortunately, liquor stores are often a target when it comes to robberies due to having a lot of liquor, cigarettes, and cash on hand in most cases.

I had a friend in the army that I MUCH admired named Bill Edge. Bill was one of the original members of the 82nd Airborne Division "Golden Knights Parachute Team",and held some records that stood for years in high-altitude jumps. He also went to Special Forces,and served several combat tours in VN with SF before retiring as a Master Sergeant with a chest full of ribbons.

When Bill retired he moved back home to Texas,and took over managing a local convenience store. Every time I thought about what would happen if a thug when in there and pulled a gun on Bill,I had to smile. Hell,I am smiling now,just from remembering it.

Unfortunately,cancer got Bill a few years ago,and he is no longer fighting the fight for good over evil. He will never be forgotten as long as anybody that served with him is still alive,though. I seriously doubt you can find ONE single person he ever served with that will have anything negative to say about him,and more than a few who will get in your face if you try.

Now I have ruined my day thinking about Bill and the other NCO's that I admired so much as a young soldier that are no longer with us,and I was in such a good mood when it started.

That probably saved his life and the gunman's. Alexander said he didn't shoot the thief because he was able to keep the man's weapon pointed away.

"I couldn't see shooting the man, if he couldn't shoot me," Alexander said.

He should have shot him anyhow because sooner or later,and most likely sooner,he is going to do the same thing with a clerk that is unarmed or not as fast,and end up murdering someone.

Call it "Preventative Medicine."

That is the worst link I have ever seen in my decades of internetting.
It failed repeatedly.  Couldn't see nothin but advertisements.

Yup, lots of hooks in that clickbait site.
