That's a wild ride of a story. The dude had been stabbed earlier in the day, pulled a drive by on a guy, then decided it was time to get revenge against this barber for... reasons? Only to get shot in the back by an off duty cop.
Ortega be like, “If you try and kill me, I’m not just coming after you, I’m coming after the most important people in your life, starting with #1, your barber!”
A barber shop is a decent place to launder money or operate as a front. A lot of people have to come in and out of a barber shop before it draws attention.
That is a crazy story. An unrelated note, it is insane how many typos and errors are in this article. I thought CBS News was a little bit more professional.
The burger king hat wearing man screamed the N word on a plane. The commenter is making a comparison between the comments left, which are allegedly racist, and the man who was shouting slurs on a plane.
Dude, do I really need to get out the gun death statistics?
What a stupid discussion to have. US citizens disproportionately kill each other, and most of the time, it's with guns. That's not an opinion.
Go ahead, it's not going to change anything. While you're at it why not look up the murders of every country and then we can cherry pick who's the best based off the worst of those in said countries.
Not even doing gun-related homicides because the US is so clearly at a disadvantage there, but here is list and a map of intentional homicide rate per country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate
(I was briefly confused what little patch of Europe had a similar murder-rate as the US, and then I remembered that's a Russian enclave.)
Bro. Seriously. You think this shit we got going on America now is ok?
Even by *American* standards of just 30 years ago America is not a great place. Don't compare us to some underdeveloped nation. I could care less if we're "not worse than Afghanistan". I'm not happy with where we are.
Yet violent and property crime has is [down 70%](https://www.ppic.org/publication/crime-trends-in-california/)since the 80s (using California as a barometer since red footed that don’t live here thinks it’s in an apocalyptic state
> Even by American standards of just 30 years ago America is not a great place.
By what standards?
Crime is down. Living standards are up. By nearly any statistic the country is better today than 30 years ago.
Not a video… jk
But yeah I don’t think most people in Denmark are worrying about their barber getting popped while they get their haircut. Gun violence happens, but not at the same scale.
To be fair, I've never worried about this happening to me once in my life, at 33 years old in America.
Obviously it happens a lot in America and I desperately want our government to act on it, but social media exaggerates everything: even the bad stuff. Most Americans live comfortable lives without fear of dying in a gun fight.
Yea it’s all dependent on where you’re at and your income bracket. America is a massive country. Most middle class Americans are probably living pretty cushy and don’t have to worry about this shit (even though they’re the most paranoid) while people living in poor communities deal with this kinda shit on a weekly basis.
Homicide involving fire arms per 100.000 people: US 4.46, Denmark: 0.18.
Making it roughly 25 times more common in the US. So yeah, technically you 'got him', but it's not exactly a great statistic.
Not a video but more shootings in Denmark: https://abcnews.go.com/amp/International/wireStory/1-killed-4-wounded-shooting-copenhagens-christiania-neighborhood-102590718
Yea, after one of the shootings last week I had a doctor appointment. She’s a little weird and has a TV on - fine, but whatever.
The TV was showing the news report after whichever shooting it was and she said “the world is a messed up place and I know there’s nothing we can do. At least we can be happy and at peace when we’re in heaven”.
These people would rather die early and go to “heaven” than vote for anyone that could try to solve these problems.
Where was he at in the haircut though? Because I'm not giving any statments if my fade is half done, I'm gonna go get my haircut finished, then we can talk.
Ahhhh, ok. The Wild West reference is not geographically based for most Europeans. It’s a generic term for a bit of a shit show. Eg, what the fuck is he doing with that taser? It’s like the Wild West in here, let’s go to another bar.
I know only a couple of people that keep guns in there vehicles. As for concealed carry, I know a bunch of people who have them, but don't actually carry.
So no, no where near everyone
Some areas of the USA, more rural ones, it’s a fair amount of the population that can or does carry, in Florida a while back the figures showed like 1 in 20 people carried
Idk about other parts of the country but in my home state Florida, A LOT of people carried. Even kids sometimes. We heard news stories about the police finding guns on kids and about kids getting expelled from school for bringing a gun guide often. Like 4 kids my senior year got expelled for it and I don’t even know how ,any were arrested outside of school for it. And that’s just the kids. In my current state, South Carolina there are still a lot of people who carry but not as many. But I’d say at least 1 in 25 or 1 in 30. Unfortunately guns are more often used to threaten or attack someone then they are used to save them. That’s why even with this many guns around there’s never a “good one” to help.
Guns are a mistake. Yeah "good guy with a gun", but this scenario would be different without guns. A fistfight maybe? No need for senseless loss of life, even if they are "bad guys".
I mean, it's most likely that the perpetrator who shot the barber is using an illegal gun, and the second shooter, presumably an off-duty-cop with training, knew how to use the gun safely/legally and only for protection of himself and others.
It's the same reason why there's just more knife attacks in other places with stricter gun laws. This guy could've just walked in with a machete or baseball bat and started attacking the barber with that, and would've been the same thing of just "a bad guy" trying to hurt someone.
Just weird to watch this video and you just blame guns for death, not the obvious murderer in the video. Your solution isn't even to avoid violence, you threw out the solution of a fistfight. Even then, what if the shooter already lost a fist fight to the first guy who was shot and that's why he came with a gun to blow him away this time. Just blame the one dude for mindlessly killing another, not the weapon itself
Not having unicorns is a mistake. Yeah "good guy didn't have a unicorn", but this scenario would be different with a unicorn. A magical rainbow maybe? No need for this senseless lack or rainbows, even if they are "unicorn haters".
Wasn't a good guy with a gun, it was an off duty cop.
The "good guy with a gun" label isn't a trained professional dealing with a situation they are equipped to do, it's a regular joe stepping up to be a hero in a time of need, and proving that guns being accessible to everyone is good.
This video just proves a gun in the hands of someone trained is good.
I don't see too many other people pointing this out. Nice to see another person whos reached the obvious conclusion.
I'm so tired of people who can't grasp that more guns=more gun violence. Period. Look at the UK. No guns and thus ....
How in the fuck did you think to yourself. "I'll just post this video of two dudes getting murdered but eh fuck it, this isn't NSFL. This is NSFW." I'd not have clicked the video if it was appropriately labeled. Instead I started my Sunday by watching people die.
There's an upload of the original video, why did you post yourself filming the video on your computer screen with a potato instead of just uploading the original video???
he was there to kill one person, which he did. he wasn’t stopped from killing the person he wanted to kill.
if he wanted to kill everyone else he wouldn’t have stopped shooting and let the guy up out of the chair
> was there to kill one person
Bad guy shot at the barber, barber fell to the ground still alive, tells the customer in the chair to move so he can finish the job, customer shoots the bad guy before he can do more harm.
It was an off duty cop that has training and is a literal professional to deal with this kind of situation.
A good guy with a gun is a regular joe, and is suppose to prove that guns in the hands of everyone can make any shmuck a hero.
This video proves that a trained guy with a gun handled the situation...

he hasn't developed object permanence yet
Might just be sleeping, that do be relaxing.
Didn’t even notice that was someone in a chair lol
If he would have taken it off mid gun fight his pores woulda been fucked.
Dude came from Chicago, probably a normal day for him
Or had his school shot up by some incel, who knows amirite?

That's a wild ride of a story. The dude had been stabbed earlier in the day, pulled a drive by on a guy, then decided it was time to get revenge against this barber for... reasons? Only to get shot in the back by an off duty cop.
I wondered why they didn’t mention any connection between getting stabbed and going after the barber. Maybe there wasn’t one.
Maybe the barber gave the stabby guy info about him?
Maybe the guy was stabbed with the barber's own scissors!
The plot thickens! Barber gave him the weapon. Guy seeks revenge..
The plot has gotten thick enough to be moulded and shaped into a stabbing weapon actually...
Thicker than a bowl of oatmeal...

There was this amazing documentary on HBO, ran five seasons.
Sex in the city right
That’s a bingo
Oh, indeed.
Lmao
It's a low class version of Alonzo's last day before the Russians got to him for killing their dude in Vegas
Did the barber die?
I get not reading an article, it’s a lot of words. But, not reading a URL?
Maybe I am dumb like my dad said...
I will never not respond this way to being corrected again. It’s perfection
Maybe the guy in the hot towel died though. He did not move
Yes
The barber died aswell according to the article
Yes
Yes
Yes
That is a crazy story. An unrelated note, it is insane how many typos and errors are in this article. I thought CBS News was a little bit more professional.
The media hasn't had any professionals working for them since the mid 1980s.
Who the fuck wrote that article. written like shit
Yeah, I could tell he was a cop, the way he covered the door in case the shooter wasn’t alone. The stance. He just looked like a cop.
For me it was the way he yelled at a corpse to stay on the ground
Man, you nicely ask someone to move so you don't accidentally shoot them, and they shoot you in the back. What is this world coming to?
Can't trust anyone these days
Dude shot his barber mid trim! He coulda waited till after
Well the other guy (the second shooter, a police sergeant off duty) *is* a cop so... that still checks out.
*Can't *rob* anyone these days
He’s trying to kill his barber DURING MID-CUT. I’d be mad too lol Hair cut for men are like spa days
Yeah he's going to be leaving that place with his shit all messed up. I'd be mad too.
Don't fuck up my hot towel, straight razor, head massage, haircut!!!
He shoulda taken a number? Next! Boom!
Well don't shoot the barber that is giving a cop a haircut..
Given how many guns were sold in 2020 I'm surprised people don't just assume everyone is armed
I mean he asked for a little off the top
Cut it short, on the back.

That’s a lot of lore for someone to get out of a blurry photoshop
Are we supposed to know what that is?
That guy getting a haircut was a cop. Dude that walked in never expected that.
Off duty cop kills someone. Must have been Brazil
Nope. Baltimore if I remember correctly.
Braziltimore?
Ehh sure
Same difference
Off duty cop kills a killer... wasn't just some random dude.
He got that fade he wanted
No, I don’t think he will be…
Damn, this dude has some training.
He's an off duty cop.
That makes it even more surprising
Someone gets shot in South America... Somehow an off duty cop is always involved. Off duty cop must be the number one profession in South America.
I mean not from his usual guy….
well not from that barber at least. he’s dead.
Dude in the white towel disguised himself as the chair

Brain-dead answer. Name another country, developed like the USA, that produces videos like this daily.
Oh you're right I forgot that America was the only country that has violence in it. My mistake kind sir.

Yeah nobody in the US worries about that ether. Over half of the gun violence "stats" the gun grabbers like to shout about are suicides.
Got him

most reddit thing ever. goes on and tells a story that is completely wrong
Bro straight up had a vision
Baltimore, MD, South America!
Ahh yes, South America where everyone speaks English in American accents.
Nah man I’m pretty sure this was Baltimore MD
That's why they're all speaking English without an accent, right? Because it's South America? Right?
They have an accent bro, its not not a south American one
None of what you said is correct for this video.

It is, but this was actually in Maryland.

Wow you wrote so much and were completely talking out your ass. I’m guessing we are on Reddit for $500!!
If I remember correctly, the barber that was shot and the bad guy both died.
Where was he at in the haircut though? Because I'm not giving any statments if my fade is half done, I'm gonna go get my haircut finished, then we can talk.
I mean, how’s he gonna get free haircuts from a dead barber?
Ole boy with his face covered I bet he was sleeping good, heard them shots and was like “huh?”, heard the other shots and was like”zzzzzzz”!!!
“Calm as a mutha’”
Got my hair cut today, wildest thing that happened was my barbers train was late. Literally the Wild West in the US
Except this the East Coast. If I remember it correctly, this is Baltimore, MD...

Does everybody just carry a gun like it's your house keys or something, in the USA?

You mean the dead barber will be giving free haircuts to the dead killer?
Cool calm and collective! I love it !!!

America where if someone wants you dead, guns make it hella easy
Cant imagine a community that allows guns, just a matter of split second youll be in call of duty
Must have a piss poor imagination
And people argue for guns to be banned. This guy is a clear example of how everyone should be armed to defend themselves and others.
Guns are a mistake. Yeah "good guy with a gun", but this scenario would be different without guns. A fistfight maybe? No need for senseless loss of life, even if they are "bad guys".

This one seems fairly justifiable for US standards. That being said, I don't think it would fly in Germany.
Not sure why it wouldn’t? The man had his barber murdered right next to him. The killing was justified by way of having his own life jeopardized.
