they were um, 'too rough' with him.


here's our poor little nancy:


The first time Nigel Sykes tried to get money from the Seasons Pizza in Newport, he did it with a gun, forcing his way into the business through the back door.

This time, Sykes is trying to get money from the pizzeria by suing the employees who tackled him and wrestled his gun away during the robbery.

Sykes alleges assault in a federal civil complaint claiming the rough treatment was "unnecessary" and that as a result of the injuries he suffered during his attempted hold-up, he is due over $260,000.

Sykes also claims in his suit, filed without an attorney, that after employees subdued him, two Newport police officers improperly used stun guns on him and denied him access to medical attention.

Normally lawsuits like this are tossed out after a brief review by the court. And while U.S. District Judge Sue L. Robinson tossed out several of Sykes' claims, she allowed the case to move forward against the pizza employees, two arresting officers and Seasons.

'too rough'

Counter sue for the pain and anguish caused by the trauma of having a gun pointed at them. Thing like that might give someone PTSD.

That my friends is why I wouldn't subdue him and call 911, I would shoot him with his own gun and call the coroner. Dead men don't sue or testify.

Knowing the times we live in, he'll get a huge payout for damages and "hurt feelings" and those who tackled him will be branded "racist thugs" by The Guardian and BBC and sent to prison for ten years for racially aggravated assault.
