Palastine, Texas (Guns Save Life): 47-year-old James D. Bushey was a good-old boy, according to his brother Jeff, who was “trying to get his life turned around.” So says KLTV.
Suffice it to say, there’s a reason his wife divorced him.
In short, because he was a bully and a thug.
Wearing a distinctive, easy to spot from a mile away shirt, he stole some beer and who knows what else from a Walmart in Palestine, TX. It was party time, after all.
Walmart, of course, has a corporate-wide policy of not going hands-on when it comes to shoplifters, and our good-old boy knew that. He ignored Walmart security’s orders to stop and walked his loot over to a nearby Applebee’s restaurant and hid it there.
Cops showed up (imagine that) and find Jimmy in the bathroom washing his hands. He’s fits the description to a “T”, including his distinctive t-shirt with the big, bold words “STAY MUDDY”.
They walk him out of the restaurant where he pulls a pistol and gets himself rapidly and promiscuously perforated by the local constabulary. There’s video of the incident that was released by police. Turns out the pistol was a BB-gun.
Yeah, he was just trying to get his life turned around alright.
Good riddance.
Video from the Sergeant.
Video from the Officer. NOTE how she initially drew her TASER in response to the stimulus of seeing the suspect draw his gun.
