Title: Siblings Outraged by Their Brother's Fatal Shooting Dismiss the Fact That He was an Armed Robber - "Oh Well!"

Two siblings are outraged at the shooting death of their brother.

An employee at a Dayton Dollar General gunned him down.

Tragically, 23-year-old Roosevelt Rappley was fired upon inside the store along the 2200 block of North Gettysburg Avenue Wednesday night.

Siblings Rochelle and Tone Rappley are furious.

Rochelle told local Channel 7 the worker had no business having a gun onsite to start with, let alone fatally targeting her brother.

Horribly, Roosevelt’s the pair’s second of ten siblings to perish from gun violence.

“[W]rong is wrong. That was wrong for that clerk to shoot my brother in the chest…”

Tone’s in complete shock:

“I still don’t believe it. … [A]t the end of the day, I don’t believe my brother’s dead. … [I]t ain’t kicked in yet.”
Dayton, Ohio family outraged their sibling was shot dead by a store clerk while attempting an armed robbery

Police have confirmed that the employee — who was legally allowed to possess a firearm — was indeed the gunman.

However, even given the shock of his shooting, Rochelle does grant Roosevelt partial responsibility:

“He’s got some responsibility, but not all!”

Reporter Molly Koweek summed it up:

“The pair acknowledges that [it] was wrong for Roosevelt Rappley to try and rob the Dollar General…but they say the clerk shouldn’t have had a gun at work.”

The worker wasn’t the only one packing heat:

“Police say…Roosevelt…showed a gun and demanded cash Wednesday.”

From WHIOTV:

In a 911 call, a man told dispatchers that a man with a gun attempted to rob him at the store.

“He pointed a gun at me,” the caller said. “I had a firearm on me. I pulled my firearm and I shot him in self defense.”

The caller also said that the suspect “shot back,” but it is not clear how many shots were fired during the incident.

[Lt. Jason Hall] told dispatchers that there [were] other staff in the store at the time and that the suspect pointed a gun at them as well.

Rochelle appears to believe the store employee was being reprehensibly petty:

“Yes, he’s robbin’ y’all — oh WELL.”

She thinks a little bit of decorum was in order:

“Call the police. That’s what y’all are supposed to do.”

Cops say Roosevelt might’ve been involved in other robberies, too.

But Rochelle is indignant:

“Y’all are not supposed to take matters into y’all’s own hands. If that’s the case, I’ll take matters into my own hands.”

We’re living in dangerous times, and care must always be taken. Roosevelt Rappley fell victim to a serial malady in this brutal world: He was victimized by the deadly threat of a loaded gun — while he was trying to do the same to others instead, as he robbed the snot out of them.


Poster Comment:

Some good gun advice for Ohio armed employees in this local reporting on the case.


A black, RKBA, kayaking, Florida Man plays back the footage of the unhappy siblings from WHIO, then comments on it. A black dude discussing a black robber getting shot in the chest by a black store employee. This was the third Dollar General robbery in the metro area in the last month.


Lastly, some Deplorable watches the two siblings and offers some heavy sarcasm in response.

I'm actually surprised there is a Dollar General open on the west side of Dayton, most businesses leave because they get tired of being ripped off and broken into on an almost daily basis. Looks like the war on poverty is failing as it was intended to fail isn't it?

Dollar General is pretty hardcore. They, like Walmart, are focusing on dominating rural areas. Dollar General can move into towns as small as a few hundred people and make a go of it. We have a couple of them locally in such small towns. It seems that if there is 20 miles or more from the nearest large town with a Walmart, they put in a Dollar General and do a steady business. In most of these towns, Walmart and their supply chain had put the other businesses out of business. So in the retail sector in many areas of America, you are starting to see Walmarts in towns over 10,000 and Dollar Generals sprinkled every 20-30 miles between the Walmarts.

Their big focus on expanding in rural America notwithstanding, Dollar General seems very scrappy, very determined to stay in urban low-income areas if possible.

I don't like all their policies on stocking and grocery choice but they're better than just having Walmart and convenience stores and almost nothing else in these rural towns.

I went to a dollar general in Kentucky and they were actually grocery store like with fresh produce and a larger variety than any other dollar general I've ever been to. In fact I wish we had one here like that.

Be my guest. Then you'll be the third of ten siblings to perish from gun violence.

That's been one of the complaints against them, not offering any fresh foods. I notice they are trying to expand their offerings, remodeling a lot of stores in 2018 to offer produce. I haven't seen fresh fruits or vegetables here yet either. But I expect they'll try to expand produce offerings. That is the one rap against them that has some merit IMO.

ThePennyHoarder: Dollar General Is Adding Fresh Produce to 450 Stores, 2018

They claim they'll have over 600 stores with fresh produce at the end of 2019. Then they plan to expand it to a large majority of thousands of Dollar Generals over the next few years. Currently, they use independent distributors to supply their produce. They want to drive costs down by forming their own distribution chain to compete directly with Walmart.

In some cities, they are going to open their own full-size grocery stores. Again, it's about having a big powerful distribution chain and the more volume of product you distribute and sell, the better off you are.

In a dense state like Ohio, you should start getting produce at your local DG in the next few years.

I heard on the radio the other day that the Dollar General on Wayne Ave was closing. I'm kinda surprised since there isn't much else around there that you can buy goods like they carry?

Well, sometimes there are neighborhoods that are just too toxic for any chain store. Then all you have left is liquor stores, check cashing joints, tattoo shops, massage parlors and bail bondsmen.

The Wayne Ave neighborhood is much, much, much better than the one on Gettysburg where the shooting occurred, go figure.
