Charleston, SC
Ever been stupid enough to shoplift in a gun store or a liquor store? Would be kinda foolish around these parts. SC law states that you can wear a firearm in an open and exposed manner in your home or place of business or if you deal in firearms in the usual or ordinary course of business.
With that in mind, you see someone in the store wearing a firearm, or if you have an inkling that the owner might be armed, THINK before you even consider committing a crime. It's common knowledge in this state that just about every liquor store owner has a gun either in view, or somewhere close at hand.
After all, to 2 easiest places to do a stick up are convenience stores and liquor stores. In most of those blue states, liberals think that people with guns will drink irresponsibly and then start shooting. On the contrary, most gun owners are responsible adults who respect firearms.
On that note.....
Why would you and your co-horts go in to a liquor store and start shoplifting? Even if there's only one person working in the store, you can bet he's got something to defend and protect himself.
In this case, Justin Jones and possibly his thug friends went in to a liquor store and started stealing merchandise. The owner chased them out of the store. It wasn't until one of the robbers got in to their vehicle and tried to run him over that the store owner pulled out his handgun and fired at them.
He is claiming self defense and is within the legal limits of the law.
However, the news story from the local rag does what it usually does, confuses facts and slants the truth. There's actually no objectivity in news reporting anymore....but that's another story for another time.

Jones went to jail and the liquor store owner didn't.
