Ok, that’s three robberies by two males with one gun between 5 and 7 am this week. Am I the only one seeing a pattern?

That’s an interesting thing. They need to keep, I would say gun but they probably wouldn’t allow it. Seen the video for the robbery in mckinleyville at liquor store that guy that got robbed was lucky that robbers gun wouldn’t work. Had a liquor store once and kept a gun under counter incase I needed to shoot through the counter. Now with this new panhandling ordinance going into effect could get worse.

Yes seems odd.
