....of being bullied by criminals.
From today's Sentinel:
Gunfire at a South Orange Blossom Trail carwash Friday left a suspected robber dead at the hands of his intended victim, Orange County deputies said.
The attack took place about 6:40 p.m. when two men, one armed with a sawed-off shotgun, walked up to a customer inside a carwash bay at 5101 S. Orange Blossom Trail. They tried to rob the patron, but he pulled out a handgun and fired, striking one of his attackers, Cmdr. Paul "Spike" Hopkins said.
"The bad guy was killed, and this guy [the customer] is safe tonight," Hopkins said. Investigators did not release the names of those involved. The second suspect ran off and had not been found early today.
Friday's shooting was the second time in four days that a customer at an Orange County business shot and killed a robbery suspect.

While I don't rejoice at the death of anyone, I am glad that it is becoming riskier to be a crook. I am glad that responsible people are getting concealed carry permits and are willing to stop violent crime. The police can't be everywhere and apparently we can't keep these violent criminals off the streets.
