Screw the "Dark Knight," if you're a violent criminal you'd better pray that you never meet the "Gray Grannie!"

On Wednesday, five masked men poured into a jewelry store in a strip mall in Garden Grove, Calif., expecting to carry out a simple smash and grab robbery. But within less than a minute, they discovered they were no match for the store’s owner, a gray-haired woman whose finger seems quite comfortable on the trigger.

Surveillance video (featured on KABC) shows a white SUV backing into a handicap parking spot directly in front of the store. Almost as soon as the car is parked, five men, two armed with handguns, poured into the store for what they thought would be a simple get in-get out robbery.

Once they were inside, two of the suspects can be seen ordering a customer and employees to the ground, while the other suspects open sacks and demand money.

The store owner was in the back of the store when the robbery started and saw what was happening through a small opening in a wall that separates the rooms. She then fired two rounds from a handgun at the suspects.

“The store owner feared for the safety of her employees and customers, so she had a right to defend herself,” said Garden Grove Police Lt. Jeff Nightengale.

The suspects can be seen stumbling and running into each other as they all try to get out of the door at once, scrambling to evade the gun-toting store owner. They piled into their getaway car and drove away, but not before one of the suspects shot a round into the store’s ceiling.

And another stupid robber finds out that jewelers react with more than consternation when somebody points guns at them.

OMG! she could have killed someone!

Sorry, went full lefty there. Good job old woman with a gun, good shooting probably saved lives.

I have the urge to watch some Three Stooges after that. That definitely was not some unarmed security guard trying to make those robbers pull his finger.

Stories like this only prove the media's anti-2nd amendment agenda.Someone uses their firearm to stop a crime or save themselves or other people and there is not one word from the media and if the media does mention its only a token mention and no one is arguing we should loosen anti-2nd amendment laws. But a degenerate loser shoots up a place and every media outlet is on that story like a fat man at a all you can eat Chinese buffet and they interviewing every anti-2nd amendment retard who is trying to push the idea we need magazine restrictions, bans on so called assault weapons, ammo restriction and so on.

In your bottom URL, one of the tenants is complaining about the jewelry vendor protecting himself and firing in the parking lot. I guess it would be better if he had just let them shoot him.

Maybe the police could have shown up and engaged the idiots in a gunfight, with five idiot guns against who knows how many high-powered firearms from the law, blazing away like a Hollywood war movie.

I object! I don't like Chinese food.
