Jeff_T Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sorry to hear about this Eric. Glad to hear everyone is all right and it wasn't terrible in the whole scheme of things.

Twisted Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) Aw, sorry to here that man! That bites. At least he didn't do anything to anyone except take their money. Looks like you gotta make more mini's to get that money back......haha, i'm kidding...or am I? Edited October 1, 2009 by Twisted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidglass Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 And I FINALLY understand why Eric doesn't want to be on camera. His sheer awesomeness blinds all who see. I'm sure they had to record you by using a mirror because the camera couldn't take being pointed right at you.Also on a related note now that Erics' face has been put out there Chuck Noriss' beard shaved itself out of shame.As everyone else has said, glad that everyone is ok. I'm not sure how security is there. But consider a camera above or beside the door facing inward. That way when the person runs, instant face pic. There are two more options:a) invite him to smoke with you and load up a tasty bowl and when he forgets what he came for call the cops lol.2) give him some of your old root beer tangiers you keep around to scare mice away he'll be sure never to bother you again (just joking)But overall shit happens, and no one really lost anything that can't be replaced...like an arm or mustache. Karma will come around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, we are just angry from the heat around here. Im not worried for my life when I walk the streets . Where I live there really isn't much store robberys or extreme crime going on. I mean, I went to NYC last month for my first time and stayed in queens. Everything on their local news is usually tragic, mest up, someone died/got robbed, or weather. Sure they talk about that on my local news as well, but definitely not as much.Maybe I should have just said "In big cities" rather than San Diego, my bad.

ilikemyusername Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Wellp, its time to invest in a set of throwing axes, catch him in the back of the head as he's running away. Odds are, nobody will miss him and you can just cut a hole in your foundation, toss him in and cover it with cement. Thats what I do, but thats just me....

JDHarding Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Now that I think about it.. it's too bad he took the cellphones.. someone coulda snapped a quick pic of him robbing the place. Most cellphones have a camera built-in. Then someone coulda just said.. welp, we have a picture of you, dude.. and we just sent it to the internet.. so.. maybe you should stop robbing us and uh.. go away?

Let him get out the door, a quick landline call to my provider and the GPS is activated and the cops walk up his front door and haul his ass away before he can spend a diime.

gunsboy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 GIVE ME SHISHA NOOWWWWW OR ELSE .........I am glad you are ok bro. Those situations can end up super ugly real quick.I just hope that next time we would see on the news. Attempted Robbery failed because a hookah bar owner and his customers shoved a 40' hookah up the robber's a$$. Now the robber is very popular in jail.

Sykotik Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 wow that sucks...lol that stupid robber dosn't know that hes being discussed about on a bunch of hookah communities. lmao.Glad everyone was safe though. Eric should get some security camerasbecause earlier in the video the cop said the robber had a bandanna on, than later on he said he had a pencil thin mustache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Yeah, he went outside, took the bandanna off and came back in to wipe his fingerprints with it off. Thats why we all knew what he looked like. There's no point in worrying about things you have no control over. Thats my opinion. The police have been very helpful, though. Not much progress, but they probably have 20 more felony robberies since then they are going to have trouble solving. It would be assumed that they dumped the cell phones, they just took them to slow down our ability to call the police. They have tried calling voice mail a couple of times since then, so I guess not.

Bulldog_916 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I'll find a way to attach blinding lasers to your mustache man. Thing is pretty boss.
