#1 the employee, Hamzeh Abushariah, 33, of Washington D.C. was charged with Malicious Wounding, Reckless Handling of a Firearm and Violation of a Protective Order.

Based on a name, he should've walked.

#5 Picture at link show a smoke shop, so it isn't like they are there, 5am on Sunday, making doughnuts for the breakfast rush.

Its almost like businesses are bracing for the lack of police.

#6 Doesn't read like Hamzeh had too many options as it was a breaking-in crime in progress. I'd assume the store was closed for business at the time? This does read like the DA has inserted her TDS into the mix.

#7 Some places you aren't allowed to use deadly force to protect your property. Only if you or someone's life is in immediate danger. I bet Arlington is one of those.

#8 It's a veritable conundrum.

Do you let a Hamzeh Abushariah shoot at citizens ? Do you let delinquents off if the victim's an Abushariah ? How much liberty can you let an Abushariah take ?

#9 The police have no duty to protect you and you have no right to protect yourself.

But pay them taxes cattle, pensions and donuts don't pay for themselves.

#10 The DA's campaign was financed by George Soros, and our traditional rights are abhorrent to him.
