Asian smoke shop owner stabs robber SEVEN TIMES after the masked criminal jumped counter of his Las Vegas smoke shop
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Johnny Nguyen, the clerk working the counter of Smokestrom Smoke Shop at the time, saw two people described only as juveniles enter wearing masks

  • Nguyen can be heard asking: 'Why are you guys wearing masks like that?' After they refuse to answer, he requests them 'to just leave'

  • The clerk said that 'at first I thought they were normal customers and then I realized they had like ski masks on. I had to assume they had a firearm'

  • He adds that though he never saw a visible firearm, he felt 'I couldn't take that chance' given the situation

  • Nguyen does not appear to be facing any charges. DailyMail.com has contacted Las Vegas Metropolitan PD for further information

#1 In New York he'd be rotting in jail with a $1 million cash bail.

In the normal parts of America, he's a hero.

Coulter's Law is in effect: if we see the media get outraged about this, we can assume the perpetrators are black.

#2 I thought masks were the solution to all problems.

So the media tells us.
