“I feel horrible. It doesn't feel good. It makes you think about life's decisions, and how you should live your life,” Henderson said in an interview with the Star-Banner at the jail on Saturday afternoon.

Hours after his release from the hospital, Henderson, who talked about the pain he feels in his buttock and hip, said the plan was to “barge in, get the money and leave.” He said “he never expected anyone to be armed.”

“The gun was broken and rusty and wasn't loaded. Nobody was going to get hurt,” he said, standing with crutches.

Retrieving the customers' phones was what he said was their “main priority.” That way, he said, the customers could not call law enforcement officials.

Henderson theorizes the reason why he was caught off guard is because, when Dawkins entered the business, he busted a computer monitor with the baseball bat and “glass got into his face.”

“He couldn't warn me,” Henderson said.

With the glass temporarily blinding his friend, Henderson noticed two women were behind the counter and he thought that was “fishy.” Turning around to see what the women were doing, Henderson said he was shot.

“I turned around to run and my leg gave out. That was when I got shot. I hit the ground, and he was still shooting. I thought I was going to die,” Henderson said.

Henderson said that, “by the grace of God,” his “leg came back.”

“I ran,” he said.

Henderson said he and Dawkins drove to a house to see a woman he said “is like a second mother” to him.


Though Henderson said he doesn't blame Williams for shooting, he takes exception with Williams shooting at him while he was down.

“I was down, and I'm not going to continue to shoot you,” he said.

I'm googleing for interviews w/ Geezer Man....I want to know if he's done IDPA / USPSA...he charged forward with authority in a second...it also seemed he waited for just the right second to attack and that he had already drawn his weapon.

He was fully commited the second he pushed back his chair.

71 Year Old Florida Permit Holder Opens Fire On Robbers

tazdevil wrote:Lets say this was in MN. Initially, drawing and firing appeared to be "legal" by MN lethal force standards. However, and please correct me if I'm wrong, did the old guy then cross a legal line by what appears to be pursuing the bad guys, continuing to fire? Again, by MN legal standards is what the question is concerning.


They were both armed, one with a bat and one with a pistol and they shouted threats before the permit holder drew and fired. Even as they were fleeing they were still armed and still a threat for all the shooter knew, they were retreating to cover in order to return fire.

Clean shoot across the board.

Congratulations, not only is this comment ridiculous and racist, it's also completely off topic.

Good job!

Relax... it all started with Obama's own quote:

President Obama offered that if he had a son, he would "look like Trayvon."

Not saying it makes it OK, but it's not as out of the blue or racist as one might originally think.

You're right. It's only moderately racist, so we shouldn't be upset about it. After all, we've seen much worse here in the past, so this is downright nice in comparison!

What's the difference, White male shoots black male (stand your ground) in Florida, No charges filed!
White Hispanic shoots black male (stand your ground) in Florida, 2nd degree murder charges!

President Obama says, at 57 second mark...http://youtu.be/Csa9fnVc1VU

Is it out of line? His own words. Only difference, No charges filed this time? Why?
