joatmonvShoplifters run over store owner
http://www.wfmj.com/story/3587...xtension-shopliftersYes, you're reading that right. She was trying to stop the thieves that stole some hair extensions. I get it, it's your business and you paid for those to sell them.
First, I damn near spit my coffee all over the screen when I read this. Second, this is the city I live outside of. Third, my business is located here in this city and it just amazes me how ghetto is has gotten.
I wonder what the street value is on hair extensions? Hahaha
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not.

Elk HunterI can understand the desire to stop someone from stealing products, but to use one's body to prevent a carload of thieves from leaving would seem to be somewhat less than smart. How much can those "hair extensions" be worth?

Sig2340Do we need to go back to the days when criminals fleeing the scene of a crime are legitimate targets for the use of deadly force?
I'm serious. This shit is outta hand. Criminals think they are immune from the consequences of their acts. We have neither the investigative resources to track them down, the judicial resources to ensure a quick, fair trial, or enough prison space to house those convicted.
Brazilians seem to have figured this out.

I agree whole heartedly. To me it's quite simple.
First, the person was assaulted.
Second, a car can be a deadly weapon that CAN cause serious bodily injury or death.
Third, they used said weapon on her when they ran her over.
If this would have happened at my business, and I do carry anytime I leave the house especially on my way into Warren, this to me would qualify as a DGU. Maybe I'm wrong but it seems that it fits the criteria to defend yourself.

RightwireWe need a recon. One of you guys go down to a hair a salon like that and ask for hair extensions, note the cost, and report back.

IcabodBest answer: "It varies." The main cost is putting the extensions on.
"Total cost ranges from $400 to $800. A full head of hair extensions (for fullness only) typically costs between $300 and $600, plus the cost of the hair. Total cost ranges from $1,300 to $1,600. A full head of hair extensions for fullness and added length typically costs $600 to $1500 and up, plus the cost of the hair."
"There’s a vast array of options, and all come with a different price point. Some hair extensions are temporary, others are semi-permanent, some are synthetic, others are genuine Indian hair, and the list goes on. Here’s a list of popular, high quality hair extensions and the approximate cost associated with them:
Fusion U-Tips start around $44
Tape-Ins start around $60
Virgin Hair Weaves start around $149
Beaded Wefts start around $179
Clip-In Sets start around $199
Lace Frontals start around $279"
"Olmedo says her extension styles start at $275, plus $60 for each additional track she sews in. Antonelli says keratin bond extensions cost between $800 and $1,400 because stylists add between 80 and 150 pieces of tiny human hair stands throughout the hair.Jan 13, 2014"
