Marine Vet Single-Handedly Disarms a Gun-Wielding Soy Robber and Sends His Confederates Running In Abject Terror

Inspiring.

A U.S. Marine Corps veteran in Arizona was caught on video single-handedly disarming a gun-wielding juvenile who was attempting to rob a gas station on Wednesday.

The armed suspect walks next to a lone store customer while pointing the weapon toward the cashier, according to the 8-second video clip. The customer acts immediately, lunging at the armed suspect.

The 8-second-long surveillance video shows the Marine Corps veteran grabbing the handgun and tackling the juvenile suspect, the sheriff's office said. The other two suspects fled the scene. (Yuma County Sheriff's Office )

Deputies said the customer, whom they identified as a Marine Corps veteran, successfully disarmed the suspect and detained him until law enforcement could arrive.

When responding deputies asked the customer how he was able to take control of the dangerous situation, he stated: "The Marine Corps taught me not to [mess] around."

To hell with them for trying to minimize this guy's guts and civic-mindedness by calling the full-grown man with the gun a mere "juvenile."

Yeah, and Michael Brown was a "teen" too. Oh, and when pictures of this hulking monster came out, they spun that as him being a "gentle giant."

But they are right about him acting "immediately."

How long is it before the former Marine sees the gun, until he acts to take it away from the soy thug? It's not even a half-second.
