A little bit of wholesome humor
I did not know Andy Griffith was a stand up comedian. This little bit had me laughing harder than 99% of the modern “comedians.”
Who are the two groups opposed to carrying guns in the workplace?
The Gun Control crowd and the Criminals! Not much of s surprise there.
Via Concealed Nation we find the case of 23-year-old Roosevelt Rappley who went into a Dollar Store, produced a gun to rob the place and ended up shot by an armed employee. Police investigated and so far it looks like a very legal shooting. That same store had been robbed four times prior which is probably why dear old Roosevelt though it would be easy pickings.
And now we have the family on TV and as we sadly are accustomed to see, they barely lay the blame for the consequences of his actions on the idiot kin who decided it would be a good idea to threaten people with a gun for cash, but come down on the employee who stopped Mr Rappley’s forcible felony:
Ain’t she ever so charming? She is explaining to us that them be some rules about armed robbery and one of them is that nobody is supposed to be armed but the robber. This is pretty much similar to the excuses we hear from Gun Control Zealots explaining the dangers of being armed in the workplace. She is the best example of this old bumper sticker:
Most stores’ rules are: “Just let them kill you, OK? We don’t need a lawsuit and BLM protesting in front of HQ.” but apparently Dollar Stores have a different take on store security than the rest of corporate America.
Dollar General did not confirm or deny if employees were allowed to carry firearms, but did say that they have “a number of safety and security procedures.”
“To protect the integrity of these measures, we do not comment on them specifically,” said a statement issued by the company. “We are continuing to review the circumstance surrounding this evening’s events in Dayton, Ohio, and are cooperating with local authorities in their investigation.”
Dollar General shooting: Man shot after attempted armed robbery identified
The best thing Dollar Stores could do is to get this publicized as much as it can. Maybe a violent robber or two will rethink about hitting a local and the workers can be safe.

Dear Facebook Followers: a word about other means of notification.
The ZuckBots have judged this blog to be guilty of felony click bait and reduced its exposure/share/etc within the platform. I am going to suggest you may want to add another way to get notified of new posts.
#1 – The Old Reader: This is a Newsfeed reader that collects the latest posts from your favorite blogs and puts them in one nice place for your reading convenience. You can add basically any website you red and aggregate all your stuff in one location. It is free for the first 100 feeds and my favorite means to keep up with other blogs.
#2-Subscribe via Email. You should see now on your right where you can register and get email notifications. I had eliminated in the past because it did not offer confirmations, but the new version gives you all the benefits of subscription confirmation and unsubscribing you can find in “professional” blogs and sites. It is like we have quality or something, LOL.
#Twitter- I have reduced my human interactions in Twitter but the blog automatically tweets new post notifications there. I am always reading the main feed and messages plus seeking material. Sometimes I will engage in a short discussion with somebody but just for blog material. I know eventually I will get Gulaged again (probably for good), but it is an alternative in the meantime.
WordPress & Jetpack are not offering weans to automatically notify to MeWe and Gab and with the amount of output we have some days, it gets annoying to post in those places by hand… and I am lazy. So, sorry, I am not going that way.
I will repost this again in 2 weeks after the “exposure reduction” is lifted just to try to cover as much as possible from the reading population of Facebook. .
Thank you!
