A 30-year-old former Marine who currently teaches a former of strength-training martial arts at a Utah gym took down a man who after recently being arrested from jail for assault walked out of a 7-11 convenience store without paying for a carton of cigarettes and punched a female clerk in the face.
"He just turned and clocked her," James Sjostrom said. "He pounded her face. It was pretty vicious."
The would-be robber made an immediate mistake and swung at Sjostrom, who grabbed his arm, bent it behind his back and dropped him to the concrete, incapacitating him with a knee to the back of the head and keeping him on the ground until the police showed up shortly later.
Another customer came outside and told Sjostrom that he was in the Army and asked if he needed any help. Sjostrom gave the best response ever, smiling and saying "The Marines got here first." Police took the man immediately to jail, discovering his release papers from jail on an assault charge, which is even more evidence that he deserves to be behind bars.
So we give a big Heart of Darko golf clap to James Sjostrom, who has once again proven that not all of society is lost; just the majority of it.
