Ban motorcycle helmets I say!! (just like those troublesome hoodies)

“No weapon was sighted.”
I wonder what he threatened? Liverpool kiss? Exposing himself? Halitosis? Harsh language?
His choice of that really inconspicuous bash hat shows he obviously put a lot of thought into this.
He looks like The Stig.

Or maybe “I’ll shoot you” or “I’ll stab you” etc.

the pharmacy staff aren’t paid to be heroes.
The helmet is a Shoei Hornet DS Sonora. Around $800 and not exactly common, especially with that pattern.
