  1. Looks like a Beretta “90two”  (the newer polymerized version of the old 92), or probably an Airsoft plastic fake version thereof.  And it looks like the safety is on since there’s no red dot visible on that side.  Duh… criminals…  Left-handed criminals that is.

  2. Everyone should have to remove their hoods and ski type hats when they enter a place of business, if they don’t, when you see them coming in, dial 911. This has got to stop. Stupid punks.
