Good Videos of Two Dallas Robberies...

Dallas police looking for two guys who have robbed several times. At the link are two videos that pretty clearly show almost the entire robbery, including the time the robbers spent wandering around inside the store before they initiated the actual robbery.

The second robbery video ended up in a shootout, but that part is not shown. It does show the robber firing through the door and windows of the store to keep other employees out, tho.

IIRC, the 1st robbery video had both BG's carrying Tek9 (sp?) style weapons,
but in the 2nd robbery video, one appears to have a Tek9, while the green shirted
robber has a more standard sized semi-automatic handgun.

They sure stayed on camera for a long time. It's not a good sign that they expended
a few rounds through the store doors at the other employees.

As a fashion note - the green shirted robber's pants are the droopy kind. Doesn't he
realize that he may have to run from the law? Plus the concealed handgun in those pants
is going to make them even droopier. Sheesh.

One thing that really stood out to me was the BG's trigger discipline. His finger was straight along the slide. That and that they waited and waited for that Hispanic customer to leave. And that I don't think I could lie down and cover my head and not know if they're going to shoot me in the back of the head like that.

Oh it's OK, they will pass laws soon that won't allow those guys to carry those. :roll:

Yes, I think it unlikely these guys will mend their ways peacefully.
