It's often suggested here that robbers are not likely to harm people during a robbery of a store or fast food joint.
Apparently, this guy didn't get the memo:

One pistol-whipping, one shooting, in just a few days.
Statistically, the claim that an attempt at self-defense is more likely to result in violence than non-resistance may have some validity.
I'd sure hate to be one of those people getting shot or maimed, though, because I didn't comply satisfactorily enough, or because I caught a bad guy on a day when he was feeling kind of evil.
