A store clerk of Indian descent in Grand Rapids, Michigan was shot in the face by a robber who called him a “terrorist” and insisted he was a member of ISIS, according to news reports.

Local media outlet MLive reported that the victim, 34, whose name was not released, recalled the shooter saying “he used to kill people like him in Iraq.” Police confirmed the statements.

The local Fox affiliate obtained surveillance video footage of the attack. The store owner told Fox reporters that the shooter said “he’d killed people like (the clerk) before in Iraq with no question.”

Late on Saturday, Dec. 12, the armed robber ordered the clerk into a back room, where he put the barrel of his rifle in the worker’s mouth. Afraid for his life, the clerk grabbed the gun, briefly struggled with the shooter, and turned his head. When the robber fired, the bullet went through the worker’s cheek, saving his life.

1. Jezus Effing Christ!

What is going on in this country? This is the fault of Trump and the rest of the republicans emboldening these a**holes and giving their hatred legitimacy. They should be tried for conspiracy to murder in each one of these cases.

3. I believe the shooter re: his time in Iraq. Too many vets have told how some of their fellow

troops acted . Random acts of violence with impunity
