It's a trick, get an ax.

This has nothing to do with Madison or Wisconsin...or even the Midwest, for that matter. But damn if it isn't the coolest thing I've seen all day.

Clerk uses ax to fight off robber. Watch the video, it's worth it.

Was it crazy for her to do that? Absolutely. Was it also completely awesome? You betcha! Though I'm not sure if this whole thing would be an argument for or against the right to bear arms. Does it apply to axes?

In other news, apparently Paul Soglin has some similar thoughts on Dave Blaska. Crazy, man, crazy.
