Also, although several people mentioned that he didn't look too crippled in the video, I don't think anyone's pointed out the psychological effects of his recent surgery. I spent several months on crutches last year after cutting some tendons in my foot and it's a very vulnerable feeling to know that you can't run or fight as effectively as you're used to. I know I'd be quicker to go for my gun if I was injured / recovering from surgery than if I was at 100% physically.

I'm still not saying what he did was right, I'd just personally prefer to give him a slap on the wrist instead of 1st degree murder.

If I were on his jury I'd vote to let him off the hook. In fact, I think he should be paid for the time, effort, money, and pain that he has saved future victims, the police, and the state penal system. One successful armed robbery only emboldens the perps, and usually leads to escalated attacks. This man put a bad one down.

Sounds bloodthirsty, I know, but it's what I believe is right. Would I do the same? No, mostly thanks to the people on this forum opening my eyes to reality and the cost of such actions. In my perfect world though, the other perp with the gun and the driver would be charged for murder once caught, and the pharmacist would be rewarded for cleaning up the streets.
