Gunned Down in Vegas: What Really Happened to Erik Scott?
There are no signs posted at any of the COSTCOS in my area. Nobody has so far come up with a written policy from COSTCO regarding firearms in their stores. If they do in fact have such a policy I would compare it to having a policy banning minorities who exercise their constitutional right to vote. Not all minorities are banned mind you, just those who exercise their constitutional rights. Such a policy would last about thirty seconds in an honest court.This is no different.
From watching the inquest it appears one of the main causes of this Vegas DA sanctioned execution was the COSTCO loss prevention guy. In the 911 calls he is behaving like a drama queen who is getting revenge on someone that dared question his big box store authority.At some point when he is lying to the dispatcher about the severity of the situation he falsely claims to be ex military. I believe this gave him undeserved credibility in the dispatchers eyes. Too bad all of the video disappeared….er I mean the video equipment malfunctioned after being left unsupervised for two days at the store….
