the fact that everyone the works there is armed and knows damn well better them him how to use theirs.
Somebody almost took the thug out when he was first standing at the front door. In the video you can see what appear to be two shots breaking the glass door while he was standing there pointing his weapon into the store. Based on the timing, those two shots were fired about the time he was shooting Ms. Billiot.

BIG difference between shooting at paper on a flat range and shooting on the two way range. 99.5% of peoples skills drop to almost zero as soon as rounds start coming their way.
As I have always said, I lose half my IQ as soon as the first gun goes off in a firefight.

I hear a lot of misinformed comments about handguns & supposed " skills" of shooters when most Cops in this nation probably dont hit their targets no more than 25-30% of the time . Hollywood has brainwashed many about the accuracy of handguns.

He said "nearly" 100 shell casings...

Sheriff Lopinto says investigators collected over 200 pieces of evidence from the scene, recovered a total of 10 firearms, took 25 witness statements, and recovered nearly 100 shell casings.
