"...let's just say between his dead pal and his swiss cheese abdomen, he's learned a valuable life lesson."

Maybe.
He's been given the lesson.
Time will tell us whether he learned it or not.

I'm sure the teacher's had time to reload, if remedial classes are required.

I am glad the couple were not hurt, however that young lady must feel really bad

She shouldn't. She did something right. If she didn't open fire, it's almost certain something horroific would have happened to her and her boyfriend -- think Willie Horton.

Something else to think about -- if her boyfriend ignored the knocking the thugs would have went to someone else's house and destroyed someone else's life.

That lady is a hero.

What switched in their brain to make them commit atrocities

Nothing switches. They've always been that way. Once they leave organized sports, nobody's protecting their sorry asses from the consequences of their behavior.

"Killed was 29-year-old Jonathan L. Carson ... averaging 3.1 points in 17 games."

Turns out, she was the better shooter.

And that, folks, is the Post of the Day.

No matter what the circumstances are to take anothers life is not something a healthly person would ant to experience.

Yes, she is a hero, yes she saved people's lives.

But in the process she has taken maybe two lives, and they needed to be taken and even wanted to be taken but their own behaviour.

But, a part of her soul must greive for the loss of these lives.

Soldiers in combat who have taken lives would understand the waht of what I am saying.

She didn't do anything wrong, but if she is in touch with any feelings whatsoever, she will be considered a human being.

" What happened? What switched in their brain to make them commit atrocities?"

Nothing " happened " or " switched ." It was always there. How many times has Rodney King been arrested since his " Civil Rights " were violated. How many times have cops been called to O.J.'s residence for domestic violence since he murdered his wife. ......... The list is endless.

***All these people that we have been reading about lately and they used to be all these stars and into the community. What happened? What switched in their brain to make them commit atrocities? ****

I dont think anything switched. I think they were criminalos all along and when their career flopped they just took up where they left off.

She put one round in the other perp, and now he's the 'late, unlamented Mr. Perp'.

Nothing's guaranteed.

"....he decides to rob two 19 year old kids who are living together,and probably have little personal wealth other than the clothes on their backs."

...and at least one firearm :-)

I have thought about if I were in her situation would I feel bad...NO! I might be scared of retaliation though. I would certainly pray for their soul and their family but I wouldn't feel bad. You are right about the thugs going elsewhere if the boyfriend hadn't opened the door..I guess all the pieces fell into place.

I wish I knew what the driver in the getaway car thought when he heard shots ring out

If she had owned a .45, the ending would be even happier.

When else could say your girlfriend shot you and you were happy about it?

It's interesting to note that you must be 21 to purchase a handgun (from an FFL), which begs the question, how did these two come by the 9mm?

Ditto that.

And it's important to tell her she must not feel bad.
