Your War on Drugs at work here. The link's from Houston Chronicle, which will go away in about 72 hours, and the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram wants $2.95 for the article, greedy bastards, but it's still worth noting:
$20 of Crack, and some young, dumb cop gets shot in the armpit. As we learned from the League City story, I don't like reaching for my money too quickly in these stores. And to think that anyone would run in with a hood on wielding a gun and think that the clerk isn't going to return fire.

It's tragic that someone got shot for $20 of crack, but where's the tragedy here? The guy that made the $20, or the jack-booted thug that got capped because they made (several) bad choices?
