“Get it while you can” ?
The victim was berserk, the criminals were "loving and caring".... This country is sick to the bone..... The cure is going to be.....frighting to behold..!
“...sad, to see lawful citizens are treated
like scum, while the criminals run wild.”
That’s because the politicians are just criminals in business suits with law degrees.
They will probably also shoot your dog but that's just the cost of calling 911.
As a practical matter, if you find yourself in a situation with cops of any kind, do what they tell you to, keep your empty hands completely visible, don't move quickly, don't say anything, listen to a lawyer. Your life and freedom - even if you are innocent or the victim in the situation - depend on this. Cops shoot way too quickly now. It's a different world than it used to be.
Wait a minute. Why were they trying to steal a car if they already had one.
Oh. Right. They like to perform good deeds anonymously.
“eastern: shoot, hop in your car with
your lights off and drive away.
western: shoot, shovel, and shut-up.
coastal areas: shoot, haul, dump and sail away.”
Where’s the South?
Funny thing is, there’s no real way to know how many stories there are in which somebody does just that i.e. shoots the two perps and drives away, or shoots some burglar in his house and dumps the body at 2 AM the following morning or whatever...
The thing that struck me about the article is the emphasis on the brand of car. Yeah, some Mercedes-Benzes are expensive, so perhaps more worth car-jacking/fighting over. I drove one for my formewr employer for a while (s-class). This $75,000 (early ‘90s) car had the hardest plastic seats since the Honda Del Sol, the type you find stacked in a public school auditorium.
Why do you never see “Dodge driver turns tables on carjackers, shoots both men dead...”?
The victim was berserk, the criminals were “loving and caring”
We’ll know soon enough if the “berserk” victim was white. If he is this will become the pre-meditated mass murder of the century, the brutal senseless killing of two wonderful, caring community leaders.
Barack Obama, Eric Holder and crew will parachute into the Bronx to inflame the resulting racial tensions (i.e. the Democrat get-out-the-vote initiative.)
Regardless we’re going to be told that the answer to this is more gun laws, regardless of whether the gun was legally registered in the first place.
He is probably a drug dealer and knew the guys who were trying to rob him
The victim was berserk, the criminals were “loving and caring”
= = = = = = = = = = = =
I really applaud his actions and truly believe he did the right thing BUT I think he will be railroaded into a swift trial.
I went back and read the entire article AFTER commenting and didn’t realize he shot them as they were fleeing in their own vehicle(stolen???), not in his.
The enlightening part was out of the MANY responses, I didn’t see a one that was against the guy.
Of course from what I understand in the ‘big city’ if one is wont to read newspapers and comment on a newspaper web site, they sort of disqualify themselves...
Always figured if you got jury duty, show up with a newspaper under your arm, claim you read 4 or 5 a day (that gets harder every day ...YIPEEE!!) and usually have an opinion on any and everything....
Probably wouldn’t hurt to kind of let it slip that you are pro gun, pro traditional marriage, etc.... More than likely you will get excused in the first round.....
PLEASE don’t ‘say’ I am shirking my duty, if I were to get locked in a room with as few as 1 oBamaBat and 1 low info voter, the next trial would be MINE— cause surely, at the very least I will assault one of the clowns (or today insult is enough for charges)and probably end up ‘strangling’ one/some of them.
Of course it’s double murder but don’t bother pointing out the law to some of these folks... It’s a lost cause.
“When seconds matter, the police are minutes away.”
I’m going to love reading more comments from the relatives of these two dead idiots about how they were turning their lives around and were valued members of society.
He’s toast because he committed a double murder. Regardless of his weapons registration state... You are allowed to defend yourself. You are not allowed to chase someone down after they are no longer threatening you and kill them.
The punks may have gotten what they deserved but there is no grey area based on the article that he committed double homocide.
Good shooting, Citizen. Civilization thanks you.
“Chasing them down is double murder anywhere.”
Wrong. In Texas, you can defend your property, period.
