“The store’s owner ran up to the sales floor with his licensed .22 caliber Walther P22 semiautomatic handgun, yelled at Sims, and fired on him,” prosecutors said.

And the store owner has (so far) NOT been charged!

Man, so many hot buttons I don't know which one to push! Blue Hill Ave, Boston, .22lr for SD (and a Walther P22 at that)!

Now, which one of you guys did this?

How's the store owner's hearing?

Poor guy...i think we should all sign a get well card n all chip in 5 bucks for the victim,,,so he feels better while he sits in the hospital room....I would sue the store owner for excessive force,, come on pistol vs hammer really,,,,,, the guy prolly shouldnt even own a gun, i bet its unregistered haha I bet he would win too if he sued and then i would pressure the DA to prosecute the criminal store owner for attempted murder with a handgun. im joking of course,,,i wonder where the guy got shot? Its amazing that this state treats its criminals like victims,,,,in some states the store owner would have been a hero and/or ridiculed for not killing the robber hahaha

Obviously guns and knives restriction works in Boston because the robber only had a hammer. They are working restriction for buying hammers now.

Charges with what? This is kind of an old case. If the store owner had done anything wrong he'd have been charged by now.

Menino will now license hammers in the city and you may only carry 10 nails!

Plus a $1 per nail tax to deter crime, random acts of nailing, and unpermitted home improvements!

Guys, the problem is obviously the gun shows. We need to close that gun show loophole!
