    Language Barrier Gives Robber Time to Run

    ok guys, I came across this today and just couldn't help but laugh at the irony of it.. just read the story.. it cracks me up

    Language Barrier Gives Suspect Time to Run
    A language barrier buys time for a robbery suspect. Police say the clerk couldn't speak english . It happened Monday morning at a convenience store at Jewella and Doris streets. Shreveport Police say the suspect pulled a gun and demanded all the money. The clerk couldn't call police because he couldn't speak english. About 20 minutes later, someone who spoke his native language came in and called police to report the crime.

    Crime is wrong in any language, however, the cleark can blame himself for not learning the language of the land and he can blame the government for not forcing him to. He very easily could have lost his life in this incident and that saddens me.
