That stretch of road is nothing but retirement communities.

The robbers probably thought it would be easy pickings.

The shooter probably drove home in his golf cart.

Was kind of thinking the same thing. Either that, or needs some practice at hostile situations and shot placement. (j/k, the dude is 71 and did what should have been done.) That said, I'd like to know exactly how many rounds he fired, how many hit the subjects and where the rounds hit.

Judging by the video I suspect that a couple went into legs and feet, and that there were a few dead LCD displays littering the place.

What pussies. There's soldiers that take bigger rounds and shrapnel and walk it off.
