AMATEUR MEETS EXPERT: The manager of Action Video in Greensboro, N.C.,
looked at the gun held by the robber in front of him. "That is not a
real gun," Ron Simpson told the robber. "This is a real gun," he added
as he pulled out his own gun, which he has a permit to carry. The
surprised robber grabbed a candy rack to use as a shield. "Like that's
going to stop the bullet," Simpson told him as he picked up the phone
to call police. The robber ran. "Police don't suggest this, I know,"
Simpson said later, but "I'd do it again." (Greensboro News & Record)


RANK AMATEURS II: When two men stepped up to the counter at a convenience
store in Stuart, Fla., the clerk asked if they were old enough to buy
beer. When Winston Lamar, 22, handed over his ID, she noticed he had a
gun. But before he could do anything with it, store clerk Marie Blanco,
42, grabbed it and the men ran, taking the beer. A half hour later,
Lamar called the store to ask if he could come back for the gun and ID.
Blanco said he could, telling him the police had left, but two
sheriff's deputies were there to arrest him and Drew Nash, 21, when
they returned. (Ft Myers News-Press) ...Old enough to buy beer: yes.
Smart enough to buy beer: no.
