Gun self-defense: Gun store owner fights back, kills robber in self defense – TomoNews
MABLETON, GEORGIA — An armed robber was shot dead and his accomplice is on the run after a failed hold-up at a gun store in Georgia.
Security camera footage of the fatal Dec. 26 incident was released this week.
It shows gun store owner Jimmy Groover, 64, moving faster than green grass through a goose to defend his property and his life.
Two unidentified armed men burst into the store in broad daylight, pointed their pistols, and threatened to kill the owner and his assistant if they didn’t get down on the floor, NBC affiliate WXIA reported.
But they didn’t count on old Jimmy Groover being armed and ready.
In the blink of an eye, the gun store owner fired at the first robber, shooting him dead. The other suspect skedaddled and he’s now wanted by the police.
Groover said he felt bad about killing the guy but knew he had little choice after the robbers made threats to kill.
Groover’s store has been robbed around 20 times over the years but this is the first time he’s ever shot one of the bandits.
Detectives said it was unlikely the grandfather would be charged with any crime because he acted in self-defense.

who robs a gun store when there people there. Answer democrats. Every one of those criminals are Hillary or Bernie supporters. Go ahead democrats you now have my permission to cry and behave like mentality ill people lol.
Fuck you UBER!!! Why is it that the BIAS NEWS MEDIA NEVER covers these AWESOME stories of WHY OUR 2ND AMENDMENT IS SO IMPORTANT!! And again fuck you UBER!!
look up a channel called "Active Self Protection" to see videos almost daily all showing cctv of actual events where people had to use their carry weapons
did anyone catch the fact the gun store was robbed 20 times before this one? WTF! Glad this time the store owner was ready to show that robbing his store now will result in a permanent sentencing. death
Can't stand thieves, so glad some states allow you to defend yourself, your family & friends and your property. These victims were doing nothing but working hard to support themselves and family and some A-wholes come in and try to steel either from their employer or their own businesses. Not the time to hug a tree and feel sorry for the robbers who are either coming off drugs or greedy as hell and don't want to work a real job for living!
See the gun owner's Isosceles stance and proper two handed grip. That is how you survive in fights like these…proper training and a decent shooter. Those who get the training from Hollywood films usually end up on their ass like that robber…
I'M CUMMING I'M CUMMING I'M CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMING!!!!! I CAME OVER THIS I CAME OVER THIS, I'M CUMMING AGAIN??????????????? I'M CUMMING I'M CUMMING, I CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME YET AGAIN!!! A WONDERFUL CUM!!! AND WATCHING THAT SACK A SHIT ON THE FLOOR MIGHT MAKE ME CUM AGAIN!

Most of these robbers are white people #WhiteonWhiteCrime
America doesn't have a gun problem but disturbed people problem. Seriously, how dumb can you be to even consider robbing a gun store?
I would never feel bad in this situation. Years of Call of Duty has prepared me to take a life.
