This makes me happy! What a waste of taxpayer dollars! This guy should be given a green card as our way of saying "thanks!'

It is good to see though that he had a good attorney..even if he was "soulless!" :-)

During the incident, which had lasted nearly two minutes, Mr. Abu-Karsh was able to arm himself with the store’s handgun and shoot one of the men in the head. The recorded video then shows him shoot Allen two more times with Allen’s weapon and then exchange gunfire with the accomplice, who ran from the store.

Mr. Abu-Karsh then locked the door, returned to where Allen lay, and shot him an additional 26 times through the back — emptying the bullets from the Tec-9 semiautomatic weapon that Allen had been carrying, the video showed.

26 times. Guess that 30 round clip (maximum allowed, right?) was just big enough.

A Sonny Corleone exit for this thieving scumbag was well deserved.

Yeah, I was glad to see this one too. I'd like to congratulate his attorney, John McMahon, who did a great job defending the real victim, Bandar Abu-Karsh.

Relieved for this outcome. Sometimes common sense does not alaways prevail.

Do you still go to that beer bar (beer stube?) on Monroe and Nantucket on Fridays? If so, I'd like to buy you a beer.

I was happy to see that 12 of my peers were able to make the right judgement

It's indeed a good thing he wasn't locked up for saving society a couple million bucks.

MJ: Yes. Heading there today. I'll accept.
