    Poor gas station attendant, another victim of useless gun-control laws! As for the thug and coward that robbed the gas station, too bad that he didn’t commit a robbery in a gun-friendly state where law-abiding citizens can defend themselves with firearms. It would be good if he got shot, while committing a robbery! Instead the robbery was committed in “gun-free” New York City where law-abiding citizens are at the mercy of gun toting robbers, who don’t obey gun control laws. This insanity will keep happening as long as decent citizens have trouble obtaining firearms. In states where it is easier for law-abiding citizens to obtain permits for firearms, the criminals are more afraid to commit robberies in fear of better chances for getting shot However; these armed robbers don’t have to worry about that in the “gun-free” zone of New York City!

    Racial Profiling!!
    Maybe he was just borrowing the money and intended on giving it back. Did anyone ask him if that was he was going to do?
