[ARCHIVED THREAD] - My pink shoed customer killed a bad guy 2nd update for 5/19/07 pg 14 (Page 1 of 10)

Posted: 5/17/2007 9:25:19 AM EDT

Ok so the other day i posted about a guy buying a gun wearing pink crocs...

The reason he wanted a gun was because a former employee stole from them and then he was fired. The employee then said they would hurt his family, throw acid in his wife face etc So he wanted to buy a gun for protection. No CCW so he has a 3 day wait. His Glock is still sitting on my shelf.

Yesterday two guys approached him in the drive way in the AM and pointed a gun at him and told him to go back inside the house. His wife was inside so he wasn't going to do it. he jumped the guy with the gun and disarmed him and shot him. Killed the guy right there. The other guy took off.
pink shoe badass
We are talking to the ATF to see if he can circumvent the 3day wait because there are still several brothers of the family left who will most likely not be happy with him killing one.

Best. Post. Ever.

The only thing we need to know is what caliber?

Seriously, win for the good guys--that's amazing, I don't care how gay your shoes are.

Holy crap--another event that shows waiting periods kill people---what if he had not got the jump.

Never again will I laugh at the thought of a man wearing pink crocs.

Holy Shit!

Note to self, never mess with a guy in pink crocks.

additional note: If things ever turn really bad and I have to make a split second decision, go with the guy in pink crocks.

The three day wait was almost effective in avoiding the killing --- of the bad guy. I wonder if the now dead bad guy followed all the firearms laws?

I fucking KNEW there was a reason I wanted a pair of Crocs.

*runs to the store to buy some*

The guy definitely did the right thing. From the sound of it, he and possibly his family were not going to live through it. Better to go down fighting.

LOL, I would have never imagined that he had a wife.

They were probably distracted by his shoes, and it gave him the advantage.

This is the absolute, perfect example of why the waiting period is worthless and dangerous to law abiding citizens.

I hate liberals.

No, no, no, your story just doesn't add up at all. Your post count is just too high to be posting a story like this for us to believe, although you weren't the shooter, so I guess I'll believe it.

Seriously, hope the request to waive the 3-day wait goes through, and hope all turns out okay for your customer.

I was on that scene. He did what he had to. Protected himself, his wife/family and property. Justice was done.

this is one croc-wearing guy who gets to keep his man-card!

FL has a wait? I thought they were cool?

So what's the law on that?

Does he get to keep the gun, like in the video games? If you can take a gun off a bad guy and shoot him with it, you should at least get to keep it.

Possession is 9/10 of ownership, and all that.

Did you guys really think that someone who would wear pink Crocs in public be anything less than a hard case?

Posted: 5/17/2007 9:37:24 AM EDT

[#32]

The 3 day wait is not a federal law, so I do not understand why you would be contacting the ATF. Look up the statute for the 3 day waiting period (Florida Statutes). There should be exemptions.

Here is the statute. I will look more as I thought there were more exemptions

Can the BATFE waive Floridas 3 day wait?

I'd think that would be something the local/state .gov would have to do.

Oh yeah... perhaps I'll stop giving shit to people wearing pink crocs.

It's like I always say in the "sandals are gay" type threads. A real man doesn't need any moron's permission to wear what he wants if he's secure in his sexuality.

Good shoot. A lot of lesser men would have let the criminals in the house and the entire family could have been slaughtered.

Looks like he just got a free gun, might as well cancel that sale!

WOW I'm showing this to the wife

Posted: 5/17/2007 9:42:15 AM EDT

Ok, so the three day wait has to be up by now. Can he not take possesion now since he just shot somebody?

Is he only 21 now?

What gun did the bad guy get taken away from him? ie what did he get shot with?

Does the wife inside the house have a gun now or does she need to wait three days for hers as well. I think the acid threat needs to be addressed.

Wasn't there a similar thread a few days ago about an arfcommer, employee, threats, front porch antics? Sounds simmilar but our guy had an ar inside the front door.

People........steal from someone and then be mad they do not want you around, who woulda thought?

I fucking knew you wore 'em. Man, did I ever call that.

Oh, and I take that back too. And if he's wearing a gold chain, that's cool too. Shit, he gets a free pass for life, in my book.

If he lived nearby I would loan him one of my guns/mags/ammo/holster.

And I never loan guns.

He definitely needs ~~one~~ several. NOW.

Needs a shotgun and AR too.

He is one lucky guy, took on 2 assailants and he had no weapon.

I worked in Loss Prevention for a retail company here in MS.

There are certain people who just can't understand why someone would be upset at them for BREAKING THE FUCKING LAW.

I blame their culture and upbringing. When parents and older siblings teach kids that you're SUPPOSED to take what you want, this is what happens.
