“He had a sword beneath a poncho, it seems to be without saying a word, he pulled the sword out, swung it three times — at least three times — at a very close distance to the person behind the counter,” said Lt. Det. Kevin Beyrer with the Suffolk County police.

Apparently the owner didn’t dispatch the perp with a Barrett 50 or the likes or they would be kicking in our doors by now. “Ve’ve come for yer guns”.
LCD, I was expecting the John Belushi samurai.
Mom:
“He was a good boy, trying to be a comedian, that was his John Belushi imitation.”
Joe Friday:
“Ma’am, there was no Samurai Liquor Store.”

Co-starring Buck Henry!
So unfair. We don’t KNOW he was going to slash anyone, now a precious life is wasted by the evil gun of evil men who shoot seed.

Life Lesson #271: Never only bring a sword to a gun fight.
NY is a “may issue” state for a concealed weapons permit. Requirements:
1. Must be a New York State resident. …
2. Must be 21 years old.
3. Have no prior felony or serious offense convictions.
4. Be of good moral character.
5. Have a legally recognized reason for wanting to possess or carry a firearm.
6. Be ready to open the business for which the license is being applied.
#5 is my favorite. SMH….
The assailant was only there to slash prices.
the store owner may very well end up bankrupt over this legal self defense maneuver.
once this hits civil court on behalf of the samurai’s relatives if any, the lawyers will always shoot for the biggest payday available.
and even though he was being robbed or having his life threatened, he will most likely have to surrender his life’s earnings to the family.
not my hope just my reality. this how gun ownership in ny state works.
bill, that’s why some smart guy said, “shoot the lawyers first”.
was it a Ginsu Katana?
Don’t shoot the lawyers: they’re only doing the legislature’s bidding. Look to your elected officials for answers.
“but robbery has apparently been ruled out as he did not attempt to steal any items, according to officials.”
Did it not occur to these nitwits that it’s kinda’ hard to steal shit when you are dead?
There’s no reason for civilians to own a knife that long.
The bren is mightier than the sword.
Wasn’t that a John Belushi/SNL skit?
“Drunken Samurai Hobo?”
BANZAI!
