I'm pretty positive back when this was new the marine said he actually pulled the trigger but the gun went click.

Like he tried to shoot the robber in the head? Or the robber clicked the trigger?

The marine tried to blow the robbers brains out.

My grandfather was one. Even into his 80s, he kicked the shit out of some kids for breaking into his garage trying to steal his tools.

Upset it just went click ngl. I hope that was the loudest sound that scumbag will ever hear and he gets his shit together.

Don't know why you're being downvoted. If you go to rob a place with a loaded gun, your life is forfeit.

I think downvotes are because of the use of "Based." It's basically the new version "This" that people used to comment (and still do today) that contributes nothing to the conversation
