Stopping The Surge of Violent Mob Robberies at 7/11 Stores in California

Los Angeles, CA— California has seen a disturbing rise in violent “takeover” robberies at 7/11 stores, where groups of young thugs are using brute force and intimidation to commit their crimes.

Despite the clear and present danger to employees and customers, the 7/11 corporation maintains a policy prohibiting its workers from carrying firearms. However, this policy is far from practical. Some employees will naturally prioritize their own lives and safety over a corporate directive, especially when faced with violent criminals.

California law is unequivocal: these victimized store clerks are legally permitted to use deadly force to protect themselves during these heinous acts. It is only a matter of time before an employee takes action, using a firearm to defend against these foolish and reckless mobsters. While corporate policy may dictate one thing, it is the California Penal Code that ultimately prevails, making it clear that individuals have the right to protect themselves,with deadly force especially when facing a threatening group whose sheer numbers make them as dangerous as any armed assailant.

These brazen young offenders are playing a dangerous game. Their chaotic, violent robberies may soon meet a much harsher reality, as they push the limits of what people will tolerate. They may soon find out the hard way that their violent crimes will have severe, possibly deadly, consequences.   Maybe that’s what it’ll take to slow these horrific robberies down.
