  1. He’s the epitome of “be careful of what you wish for”.

  2. A heart warming story. Now he has what he went there for: a place to stay, time to spend with his (new) friends, and food so he won’t starve.

    I suspect he won’t like the entertainment.

      I suspect he won’t like being the entertainment.

  3. “God fearing black man tricked then trapped by white supremacist of Indian desent.”

    1. Yes, why didn’t you see he had his hands up Praising the Lord when the police came?

    1. “There are no atheists in foxholes.”
      According to my mother, absolutely true.
      As a young teen she was lucky to survive an urban battle that resulted in tens of thousands of casualties. She said every single soldier prayed when the chips were down.
      And when her kid’s draft letters came, she added that every one of them cried out for their mothers as they died. No shame in that, no matter what uniform, just core humanity. But she hated the National Socialist Labor Party (nazi) and what it did, till the end.

      1. My father told me that when he took a bunch of shrapnel courtesy of the Chicoms he immediately said to himself “Boy is mom going to be pissed.”

  4. Some lessons: always check to see if there’s a backdoor and a silly little Saturday Night special won’t open doors.

  5. Cool. What looks like security to keep bad people out also keeps bad people in.

    1. I was looking at those security features and thinking, “Get used to them bars, kid”!

      We can hope…!

    1. If they go through the trouble of putting bars on the store front, inclusive of the door, then I bet if there were a back door, it would be barred too.
      Who was really too dumb was the woman pushing the pram. She was so slow on the uptake, and almost didn’t get out in time.

      1. Yup, my thoughts too, then again she may have *ahem* been helping herself to merchandize before bozo screwed up her plans. Bird of a feather thing.

  6. Made my day. Thanks for that. I hope it wasn’t in NYC or he’d already be back on the street.

    1. Not really. But why didn’t THIS perp resist? Was he too embarrassed? Don’t ALL black FOOLS resist arrest? Why didn’t he become a new martyr for the BLM Marxists?

      BTW … my lilywhite suburb has a black mayor. A very nice gentleman, who I have known for years. Well … our lilywhite City Council (and black Mayor) has just launched a new Committee to examine our cities systemic racism and formulate a remedy for said racism. Our only racism is … being white. And mostly liberal … nay, leftist.

      I’m growing very weary … and pissed off with all this race-baiting crap

  7. next week BLM and the New York Times will say that LOCKS ON DOORS ARE RACIST

    I wish I was kidding but they are THAT deranged.

  8. She’s a prophetess, she showed him what the sound and feel of his next place of residence will be like. He didn’t seem to be very thankful for the revelation. Ingrate!!

    So enjoyable to see he found some faith earlier than later. That may help him when he stands before the judge, he’s already well on his way to reforming his life.

  9. If only it screamed “Black Lives Matter!!!!” it would be a victim.

  10. He was never scared enough for his water to rush. Just frustrated and then resigned – never in any personal danger.

  11. Brains – no gun VS Gun – no brains.
    You don’t always need a good man with a gun

  12. More shotguns on the response than I would expect. I wonder, are the US cops shifting to riot guns as a matter of habit.

    Although it is an armed robbery and I have no experience in policing. Just curious.

  13. L- If we make jail cells look like convenience stores.

    Then the rest of the justice system becomes superfluous.

  14. This would be great for Saturday Night Live,

    I could watch this over & over.

    1. You right click on the video, it says copy video address. Click on that. You can then paste the address onto the email you want to send.

      1. Just to check if it works, I pasted the address onto a new tab, and it did open the video with following comments.
        One of them said something to the effect that if there were adequate social safety net, he won’t have had to resort to this. The writer didn’t show any sympathy for the hard working store owner.
        By the way, one of the comments contained the original video, which was much longer, and showed much more of what he did after he was trapped. The police did show up quickly, but not as quickly as the edited video would imply.

  15. Armed Robbery gets you Ten years in Prison.
    Discharging a firearm during a felony gets you 20 years.
    Another of Obama’s sons off the street where he can’t harm anyone.
