For A Good Cause

[Racer X]

Hey guys, I wasn't sure where to put this, so it's going under "General". If you know of a better spot or want to pass along the link, go for it.

I am fortunate enough that I have several comic shops in my town that I can go to. Last week, Dave, the owner of one of those shops, was shot when someone tried to rob his store. He survived, but is still in the hospital. A site has been set up to help raise donations, as he dosen't have insurance.

Thanks, in advance

That is horrible. Hopefully Dave will pull through this okay.

Hopefully they'll catch the moron that shot him.

I had about 7 comics and a TPB stolen from me yesterday when they could have got a lot more expensive items. They're probably on something

[hawkeyethearcher]

when i was younger my friends and i would check cars to see if they were unlocked when we walked by them. we would take the dumbest things like a stick of gum or just clean out there ashtray if it was dirty. we didnt want to steal anything exspensive we just wanted to mess with peoples heads.

I might have to throw something towards their efforts. I bought a couple comics from these guys a long time ago.

Donation sent.
Hope he gets better fast.

I don't think they put a lot of thought into it. If they did, they would have realized that all of the $$ is in the bins and on the walls, not the register.

Unfortunately, the police don't have a whole lot to go on...

Bad things happen to good people.:(
But in the end worse things happen to bad people.
Hopefully the worst is yet to come for these scum-o's.
May they suffer and die horribly.

[Racer X]

Yeah, hopefully the person/ people responsible get what is due x10.

[VinReaper]

What are people thinking!!! First of all what they have possibly thought could be in the register. Everyone pays with credit/debit cards. If their were cash it would be a tiny amount due to the low cost of merchnadise.

It had to be a crack head.

I wish him the best and hope they nail the perp(s)

The person/ people weren't even smart enough to hit the store on a Wednesday!! Talk about stupid, they didn't even know when to hit the store when there might be a couple hundred bucks cash. Hope they have day jobs, cuz they suck at their night jobs.

Thought I'd let everyone know that we had some good news on this front recently. Again, thanks to everyone who donated.

Grr...

Thieves are p#ssies, plain and simple.

Pardon my french, but they are.. stealing stuff that someone else paid for with hard-earned money.

Sorry that happened to you, guys. Here's to hoping the thieves return while you're putting new bits on the power tools.

:mad:
