> A 17-year-old in suburban Seattle and two of his friends were returning a defective airsoft gun to Big 5 when a self-appointed security guard who claimed to be “conducting overwatch” decided to shoot him dead in the parking lot, while his hands were up, lest he rob the karate dojo next door.

Update on this story; the “security guard” has been charged with second-degree murder, and it turns out this wasn’t even the first time he stalked an unarmed person that he thought had a gun because he “thought he would have to shoot them”.

I really wish this state hadn’t abolished the death penalty.
