I don't think that beating with a metal pole was over-kill either. It was make-due with whatever the guy had laying around. He was trying to tell them to stay down. If he let one of them up, he could have been caught with a knife or a shank or something. The guy was 100% within his rights.

And you cant see behind the counter. They may be kicking him or whatever. I dont see a thing wrong with what he did.
Lets just think for a second if it were two men who jumped the counter. Would those who thinks he was in the wrong still feel the same way?
What if the cashier was a woman? And she did the beat down. People would be praising her.
I think he did what he had to do because two nutjobs just verbally berated him, slapped him in the face and when he tried to get away they jumped the counter and came after him. I say he did what he had to do.
