Cannot stress enough the importance of practice.
Hang the bastard.
And the importance of awareness. Especially since there had been other robberies there, and they were walking out with the till.
It doesn't make it any less sad. My family is from that area and although I haven't been there in years, it's sad to think that kind of thing goes on in Lufkin. But then again, most small towns in that area have some level of that "element".
After reading more and more stories about BG's getting the jump, I've been more vigilant in keeping aware. If I catch myself with my hands in my pocket, looking down, or just not being aware I make it a point to look around.
You just never know when someone is going to try something stupid, and I'd prefer to look like a hard target and not have to deal with it to begin with.
I wonder how much would have been different had the GF had a weapon as well......I know mine has expressed interest in taking the course.

Double the odds that the BG would have been hit fatally. Double the odds that we wouldn't be putting a scumbag into prison after paying for his health care, only to spend thousands upon thousands persecuting, feeding, and executing this jackass.
It's debatable if it would have saved the CHL holders life since we don't know if the first shot was the fatal one.
I do think it would be interesting to know the type and caliber gun he carried.
