An armed robbery occurred this past Tuesday, February 2, at about 10:00 pm, near my neck of the woods, in a business of a kind in which I used to work, and in which friends still do (in fact, I've met the owner of this particular business on a number of occasions). This was among the worst-case scenarios that I and my coworkers entertained: Convenience store clerk is working alone at night when two guys enter. One is armed with a shotgun. The compliant clerk gets shot.
The link to the video is here: http://www.newsok.com/multimedia/video/64906084001. There is no sound, and it doesn't show the clerk getting shot (may he survive to testify against those who shot him, and may he also see them imprisoned for a very long time). But it does show a number of other things. My question for Strategies and Tactics is this:
Suppose you are that clerk. Suppose the video shows pretty much what you see. Suppose that you are armed. What do you do, when do you do it, and why?
I have my own ideas. I'm interested in yours.
(Ideas and observations appreciated.)
