Happy Endings

Store Clerk Shoots Suspected Robber In Head

Buchanan reportedly showed his gun, fired one shot, demanded money and threatened the five people inside the store.

That's when Nadim Shalamy, 71, shot the Buchanan in the head, killing him.


OK, you can stop clapping now. It's time to get serious again. Compare this glorious event to the robbery that took place just days earlier, mentioned at the bottom of that article.

Cleveland police are now looking into a shooting at Tony's Deli earlier in the week to find out if there is a connection. There were three gunmen involved in that shooting.

Rebecca Cordoves, 21, and Jorge Santiago were gunned down during a robbery at Tony's Deli Monday night.

Cordoves had two children, an 18-month-old and a 1-month old.


In one incident, a toddler and a baby will now grow up without a mother, having been orphaned by a heartless, violent, low-life piece of trash. In the other, an armed citizen defends himself against a heartless, violent, low-life piece of trash - saving additional innocent lives in the process. Guess which scenario the city supervisors of San Francisco are hoping to replicate and promote in their city.

Dianne, I thought it was all ABOUT THE CHILDREN!

UPDATE: Great minds think alike.

For the record - I was the one who mailed Kim the link to this story earlier today. We wrote our posts simultaneously. Didn't want to be accused of lifting his stuff.
