[QUOTE="soberups, post: 920717, member: 14668"] The clerk was placed in a life-threatening situation, with a criminal pointing a gun at him. In human beings, life threatening situations can trigger an uncontrollable "fight or flight" reflex where higher brain functions are suppressed and brute survival instincts take over. Police refer to this as an "adrenaline dump." It is documented medical science. People in such circumstances are forced to make split-second decisions and these decisions are often less than ideal when analyzed using 20/20 hindsight from behind a nice safe desk. The clerk did not ask to be put in that situation. Its not fair to judge him if you werent there. [/QUOTE]
