Don't be a hero......not cool

Many of you may have read about a St. Louis man that was run over by two kids after they had grabbed the tip jar at the local Starbucks. The man, a regular, saw them grab the jar and chased after them. Details are not out, but somehow he gets run over and killed by the two tip jar bandits.

A couple of crazy things....the two kids....they paid for their coffee and then grabbed the jar with less the $5 in it.
The guy somehow gets hit?
The two are from Atlanta doing a cross country trip and were arrested in OH shoplifting a month earlier. What a couple of losers.

I really feel bad for the man and his family. He was trying to do the right thing and he paid the ultimate price. But.....no money is worth your life. Stepping out In front of a car is just not the way to be a hero. People are nuts....at best just write done the license plate.

To help someone that is being attacked is one thing....to run after a criminal for a petty theft is another. What a waste of a good mans life.

St Louis has had a few weird ones in the past few weeks.....the Kirkwood shooting and now this. Pray for our city!


On the politics side......I cannot believe there is not a clear winner in the democratic primary. As I stated ....do not count Clinton out....the shine is coming off Obama.


This weekend Wyoming has there primary, both of them will be voting.

I guess PA will be the deciding vote.......
