The season with the Indian immigrant was rad. Some people really turned it around and they got one dudes license revoked because he was just willfully negligent.

Was that season 12 with Amrinder?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNaDfx2_Tjk

I just started watching that season and the people are nightmarish. Diana was a crazy hippie who kept loving around with tarot cards and incense and stickers instead of concentrating on the road, Cody was a self confessed habitual drink driver, Mike had a brain injury that made him a dangerous driver but Krystal was the worst. The worst. She was an incredibly bad driver but was also incredibly arrogant and self-entitled and aggressive and just wouldn't listen. There's a hilarious moment at the end of ep 2 where she reads out a list of all the horrible things the host said about her and he goes "I stand by all of that" and the panel of experts also agree with everything he said. :v:

I think that may be a 7-11 near me. There's Dept. of Corrections officers in there all of the time.

edit: maybe not the right store, there's a bunch in NJ that are laid out similarly.

Wow, dudes a goddamned hero. One time when I was working at a gas station some drunk dude freaked out and pushed over the sunglasses spindle thing and was screaming at me and some guy ran in from outside and just straight up cold cocked him. Not quit as dramatic, but it did make me believe that for some reason people will put themselves in danger more often for a gas station attendant than any other retail position.

I choose to believe that he intended to wound (I know, I know) the guy in blue, and deliberately miss the other guy. Otherwise it looks like he was straight up trying to execute him.

Firearms are deadly weapons and police are trained to aim for center mass to maximize stopping power. Nobody aims with intent to wound, especially at someone who can shoot back.

You're right- if he's a mall cop he's probably versed in Gun-Kata and could take down 10 multiracial gang members John Wick style before they could get a shot off. Those fuckers are ruthless.

A few years back a security guard at a wireless store shot a robber in the back. Dude came in with a gun, saw the guard, and ran away... guard went outside and popped him as he ran. Guard wasn't even charged!

And yes, that's definitely a security guard in the video.

What's to stop him from firing behind himself as he runs away? Or to come back a minute later? Are police and armed security meant to stop firing every time a criminal turns away from them?

I feel like there is no good way to handle that type of situation. :(
