When an armed robber barged into Ranchito #4 Taqueria on Jan. 4, almost every customer froze with fear. But one good Samaritan, an unnamed 46-year-old man, quickly jumped into action to protect everyone from the apparent threat. He used a concealed gun to shoot the robber and returned the stolen cash to the terrified patrons, only to discover that the gun used by the robber was a fake. The robber was later declared dead on the scene.
Despite the customer’s heroic actions, he has received nothing but condemnation by the corporate media. Unfortunately, this media treatment is nothing new. Over the past few years, only a few good Samaritans have received any press despite the overwhelming number of these brave individuals jumping to action.
