1 dead, one injured in Miami Burger King shooting

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/breaking-news/story/965735.html

 Police said a man wearing a ski mask walked into the store at Biscayne Boulevard and 54th Street and demanded money from a clerk.

A customer, who has a concealed weapons permit, pulled a gun, said Officer Jeff Giordano, a Miami police spokesman.

The customer and robber exchanged fire.

The robber was shot dead at the scene.

The above link is 404 - not found. Interesting that a story about an intelligent citizen with a gun taking down a criminal with a gun is suddenly unavailable. Maybe they don't want you to believe that the Second Amendment to the Constitution is a good thing. That people can actually protect themselves. That the police can't actually prevent crime, they can only document it and maybe investigate it, but they're primarily concerned with their own safety, not yours. 

Here in Spokane, a police officer was recently aquitted of shooting an unarmed citizen while drunk and off duty because he thought the victim was trying to steal his truck. Even tho he'd followed the victim in said truck prior to shooting him. So, here in Spokane, any police officer, on or off duty, can fire upon any unarmed citizen of Spokane for any reason with impunity. Do you still believe you live in a free country?
