PA: Thug Attempted to Rob the Wrong Customer

A Thug attempted to rob the wrong customer early this morning in a Stroudsburg, PA Walmart parking lot. The thug was paid back with a couple of bullet wounds & was found by Police while attempting to bury his handgun. My favorite part is that he could end up serving 30+ years after he gets patched up:

Jacques is charged as an adult with attempted murder, robbery, aggravated assault, crimes committed with guns and illegal possession of a gun, all felonies, and reckless endangerment, a misdemeanor. He hung his head and sighed after the judge told him he could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted of the most serious charge, attempted murder.

Listen up all you so-called Violence Policy Centers - you want to reduce violence? Lock thugs up & throw away the key. That's the only real way to reduce violence, not by attempting to disarm their potential victims.



H/T to Sebastian.

Update 1: According to this article about 1 out of every 16 people have a CCW permit in Monroe County, PA. If that ratio is correct, criminals in Monroe County really should consider moving somewhere they are more likely to find unarmed victims, like Washington DC or New York City.
