Robbery Fail

They don't mess around with armed robbers in Virginia. The 'victims' held on to the robbers till the police arrived.

Gee, maybe these guys will think twice before trying to rob anyone again.

The victims are lucky the robbers didn't squeeze the trigger. The robbers wouldn't have been beaten up if they were more ruthless.

So, just to make sure everyone's head is in the right spot the newsie asks if the alleged victims will be facing any charges for beating the crap out of these a$$h0les!

When things don't work, you sometimes need to take them apart to find out why. These guys obviously weren't working.

Want to bet that the kids were bluffing with an unloaded firearm? No report of any shots fired makes me think that. Also makes me think that alcohol or other substances are involved.

Cue up Nelson Muntz...
