people united can never be defeated...

Pizza man saved by gun,
but fired for packin' heat
Prosecutors call it 'clear case of self-defense,' yet national chain
prohibits carrying firearms

A pizza deliveryman won't face charges for fatally shooting a would-be
robber several times when he was approached in a high-crime area, but his
employer, Pizza Hut, has fired him for violating a company policy against
carrying firearms.

Ronald B. Honeycutt, 38, who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, says
he's been delivering pizzas for 20 years and has always packed heat on the
job.

According to a report in the Indianapolis Star, prosecutors announced Friday
the Carmel, Ind., man will not face criminal charges.

"It's a clear case of self-defense," Deputy Prosecutor Barb Crawford said.
"He did what the law allows him to do to protect himself."

Jerome Brown-Dancler approached Honeycutt at around 11 p.m. on May 17 just
after he had made a pizza delivery in Indianapolis. According to the report,
Brown-Dancler pointed a 9 mm handgun at the Pizza Hut employee as he was
entering his van.

Brown-Dancler's gun carried a loaded 14-round clip but had no bullet in the
chamber, Crawford told the Star. When confronted, Honeycutt pulled his own 9
mm from the back of his pants and fired until it was empty. He says he fired
15 times in about eight seconds. An autopsy revealed Brown-Dancler was hit
at least 10 times.

According to the report, Honeycutt insists Brown-Dancler didn't fall until
after the last shot was fired.

"The guy kept standing. He knew he was injured when he fell," Honeycutt told
the paper. "His concern was he made an error, and the only thing he could
say when I was grabbing his gun off the ground was, 'I just wanted pizza.'"

After the encounter, Honeycutt took Brown-Dancler's gun, fearing it might be
stolen if it was left with the body. He got in his van, drove to the Pizza
Hut restaurant where he worked and told his manager to call police, Crawford
said.

"This was late at night. This was a high-crime area," Crawford is quoted as
saying. "He left because he wasn't sure whether or not Brown-Dancler had any
friends with him. As it turns out, he did indeed have friends with him. They
left when they heard shots fired."

Honeycutt says he plans to find another job delivering pizzas.

"Other criminals better think twice, because I'm going back out there," he
said, "and I know I'm not alone in the way I think about this."

Some Pizza Hut customers have complained to the company after it fired
Honeycutt.

"I hope those of you in the media will realize the incredible unfairness of
a huge company telling its employees - in essence - they must agree to die
for the company rather than use legal reasonable means to defend
themselves," Rick Whitham, an Indianapolis attorney, told WND. He says he
saw Pizza Hut's action as "clear discrimination against those who choose to
lawfully exercise a legal, heavily regulated right."

Whitham wrote to the company: "I don't spend my money with businesses that
openly discriminate against people such as myself who understand that the
police have no affirmative duty to protect any particular citizen and that
no company is worth dying for - particularly yours."
