I thought Ohio was a conceal/carry state. Just blow the f#cker away and hose down the concrete next time.

The funny part about the article is that the suspect demanded the scratch-offs.

When we were first married and moved to Akron, one of the many jobs I took was working at a gas station. Periods of boredom interrupted by the occasional wacko who couldn't/wouldn't pay. Got pissed at some wise ass who was breaking my balls about not paying and I threatened to hosed him down.
I had a lighter, also!
Got fired the next day.

Akron police are asking anyone with information to call 330-375-2490.

I read that and the image that comes to mind is Chief Wiggums eating a donut, sitting by a phone ..

I don't know squat about Akron although I've driven through on I-77 a million times. Always thought there was a joke lurking in the Whipple & Everhard sign, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet.
