This one is for you Millie (I saw your comments on the Boycott AutoZone In Support of Devin McLean page. ;)
Watch television interview with The York County-Poquoson Sheriff J.D. Diggs here > http://wtkr.com/2012/12/06/sheriff-says-he-plans-to-honor-autozone-hero-for-taking-action-against-fake-beard-bandit/?hpt=us_bn7
When he learned that AutoZone had fired Devin for breaking their Zero Tolerance rule for gun inside their store, he had this to say:
“I thought what a shame this guy has really gone above and beyond. I mean what else could you ask an employee to do for you?” says Diggs.
For the full story of Devin's act of heroism, you can refer to this first thread about him > http://www.akaqa.com/question/q19192176636-What-do-you-think-did-he-do-the-right-thing
I'm just so proud of him. I had to share this news. He's become quite the American hero through all this.

Colleen t I saw Devins story on Fox Insider """Heroic Auto Zone Employee fired for using Gun".
My copy and paste has not worked for quite a while, so you have to type what I wrote above and you will see the interview.
I am going to sign the boycott against Autozone. and hope they loose most of theire customers.
I also think someone will offer him a much better job, a place where they appreciate to have someone like Devin as theire emplyee.

AutoZone must be sorry by now that they made such a hasty decision.
They will regret that they fired Devin, as people let them know with
their wallets, what they think of the store for firing him.
I'm sure your nephew is glad to be out of the place anyway. Who
would like to know that when they show up for work, they are a
sitting duck, on a daily basis, for any jerk coming in with a gun,
to rob the place. The perp has done this twice now and the
police have still not been able to catch him. He'll probably just
go to another AutoZone, for his next cash fix, so they're losing
money any way you look at it. Kudos to the sheriff, for stepping
up to the plate and I really hope that Devin's ambition to become
a physical therapist comes to fruition. :)

And thank you on behalf of Devin for your support. Thousands are boycotting. Every AutoZone page on the internet where comments are allowed are being hammered by outraged citizens. Even their contact page is getting hit http://ecorporateoffices.com/AutozoneInc-1936
