Two gun-toting perps invaded a Detroit Walgreens Drugstore at 4 am and pointed the gun at the pharmacists and demanded drugs and money. The Pharmacists, not wanting to become a statistic, drew his concealed weapon, for which he was duly licensed, and fired at one “felon to be” who immediately fled the premises along with his brave partner without shooting the pharmacist, other employees, or customers.
Now I know what you are thinking, the pharmacist is a bloody hero, no pun intended. He foiled a robbery of his employer’s merchandise, he saved the other employees from harm; he saved any early morn customers from harm all at the risk of his own life. Plus he prevented a druggie from using his pills to get hopped up and roam the streets looking for additional victims. You probably are thinking that Walgreens, if not promoting this pharmacist, at least gave him a raise, or bonus, or an extra week’s time off for his heroic action.
Well you are sort of partially correct; Walgreens did give him some time off; a lot of time off. Walgreens FIRED the pharmacist for violating company policy! Seems employees are not allowed to have guns on company premises or resist robberies. Compliance is the company rule. Remember how hijackers were to be treated prior to 9/11? But fire the guy? It’s not like he caused a problem; in fact he stopped a major incident, maybe some murders, including his own! So what do the executives at Walgreens do, they not only fire the hero, but they make a public announcement that their employees are not allowed to have guns on premises and compliance with the perp's request is the store’s policy!
My reaction was that this was a complete miscarriage of judgment and that the executives should all be fired for small minds and crooked thinking. Unable to fire them, I concluded that the best thing for me to do was to tell my wife and sweetheart, they are one in the same, to avoid Walgreens from now on! Boycott the Stupid imbeciles!
Wait a minute, I see that knee-jerk, pointee-headed, gun loathing, commie-pinko eastern seaboard liberal attitude. This isn’t about gun control; this is about the safety of my wife and loved ones.
Those imbeciles at Walgreens have now announced to the world that none of their employees will be armed. Now think about that. You are a perp and or a drug addict. Where can you go and get drugs? How about a pharmacy? Of course they don’t have heroin or cocaine, but apparently there are a lot of prescription pain-killers that are high on the list of abusers and the Walgreens pharmacy is just full of them and no one there is armed. So, since 70% of all shootings are drug related and the perps know this; why not go to a place with drugs but no guns? I.E., Walgreens!
No, I do not want my wife, my daughters, my sons, and their children to set foot inside a Walgreens and place themselves in harms way in what is now open territory for drug seeking robberies- Walgreens.
Thank you very much, but we will buy our drugs and stuff from a pharmacy where the crooks don’t know whether the pharmacist is “packin’ heat” or not! After all, our life just might depend on it.
