(3,604 posts)5. Many years ago I was in a local Mexican restaurant having dinner.
A thug rushed in, stuck a gun in the kid behind the counter's face and said, "Gimme yer munny." The kid smiled and waved his hand at the customers. The place was full of cops, I was the only customer who didn't have a badge. Clicks of gun safeties being taken off filled the air. The thug smiled foolishly, placed his gun on the counter and started to back away. One step later he was on the floor. The cops cuffed him, told him to wait quietly while they finished eating, then drew cuts from a deck of cards to decide who would take him in.
