This is freaking sick:
GARY, Ind. (CBS) – A 26-year-old convenience store clerk was shot and killed in broad daylight in Gary, Ind., and police say witnesses stood by and did nothing. CBS 2′s Pamela Jones reports there are critical clues that may help crack the case.
Police say one of the four men caught on surveillance video bursting into the clerk’s booth at the convenience store was about to commit murder. The video shows a man in red run up an aisle and kick in the door to the booth. Within seconds, the clerk, Gurjeet Singh, was shot in the neck.
“It was senseless. And really all homicides are senseless but what we gather from this, there was very little resistance,” said Gary Police Department Commander Anthony Titus. “It didn’t have to end the way it did.”
The clerk, Gurjeet Singh, never had a chance. The predators simply came in with the intent of killing him first, and robbing the store second. This is exactly why no law-abiding citizen should be out in public without a firearm and the knowledge how to effectively use one.
But Titus says what’s even more senseless is the apparent inaction of bystanders standing near the front door almost the whole time.
Police say there were several customers walking around the store after the crime. But only one called 911 for help.
When asked what he finds most disturbing about the surveillance footage, Titus said, “The fact that people went in and out of the store and didn’t call police. There is a man laying there. Nobody thinks to dial 911 or check to see if he’s OK or anything.”
These mindless sheep were more concerned about getting a six-pack of beer or a box of smokes than they were about a predator running around with a gun and killing people.
Running for cover and hiding is one thing, but to idly stand by and do nothing? These sheep are as guilty as the predators. These sheep have no respect or honor. These sheep are not civilized humans.
I need a drink.
