Stand-up guy. The Plantation Subway owner said John Lovell is a great customer. Comes by nearly every night to order off the menu. Says he loves him even more after he took down two armed perps. What a great review, eh? Castle Doctrine Bump!

Here is a better take on the story you posted a couple days ago.

I don’t know, something doesn’t sound right about this story. I mean, the guy said his grandson was a “good child”. And with a name like Donicio, he sounds like a pretty nice kid.

Great story...Sempher Fi. Rettig said Lovell, who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, is not expected to be charged. ''He was in fear for his life,'' Rettig said.

Great case for conceal carry. Which we don't have here in Wis. dangit! But we're trying.

But Lovell, who neighbors and friends say is in tiptop shape and looks years younger than he really is

That’s an understatement. On the site below, they have a picture of the guy (in the video portion).

No one could find Lovell on Thursday. But when he shows up again, Malik said, the hero will have free heroes at the shop for life.

Freedom isn't free. Heroes always pick up the tab. But not in this case.

Fredrick Gadson, 21, of Fort Lauderdale, was critically wounded.

Too bad the ambulance could not of driven to the hospital any slower. Would of helped save the hospitals resources.

“The robbers got Lovell’s money. But Lovell, who neighbors and friends say is in tiptop shape and looks years younger than he really is, pulled out his handgun and shot both in the head.”

Outstanding performance under pressure.

He was being led into a bathroom. If you read any stories of armed robberies, that’s a sure sign bad things are in store for the victim.

Another “good kid” who was “getting his life together” and who was “well liked in school” is dead, and another
‘aspiring Rap singer” who like cars is near death do a incident of an error in young live cut short. Both shot by guns. Guns that roam the streets. Killed by a anti-social misfit who only knows a life of robotic killing under the orders of our sick, warped military/industrial war machine. One would of lived if we had good, Swedish health car. And nice, 2 weeks post birth to graduate school free education. Oh and free mental health care. And only PBS on television, radio and the Internet. I’m sure there is a violent male in these kids immediate family.

“Donicio Arrindell, 22, of North Lauderdale died. Fredrick Gadson, 21, of Fort Lauderdale, was critically wounded.”

It would NOT offend me if gadson dies a slow, painful and miserable death. If he survives his wounds, perhaps a drooling diaper-wearing “stump-head” would serve the publics best interest... supported 100% of course by the slime that brought this demon into the world!

Yeah, so is every other perp. Don't let reality slap you upside the head or anything...

Technically, it is a Stand Your Ground bump, since Lovell didn’t own the place or work there.

From /http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/broward/sfl-flbsubway0629nbjun29,0,1772093.story:

"But Gadson's [the surviving perp's] grandmother, Rosa Jones, said: "He ain't no hero. He is a murderer and God will serve justice."

She and her husband, Ivory Jones, pastor of a Fort Lauderdale church, sat on their front porch in Fort Lauderdale on Thursday wondering how a man could shoot two people and not go to jail."

Unfortunately, this true hero could be facing a lawsuit. But at least he's getting a little top cover with the surviving perp being charged with murder - good law!! That should keep these scumbags busy for a while.

What is the sob story crap at the end of the article? Is this a new twist now that people no longer care about the poverty angle to diminish criminal acts? It’s like this final segment was part of a formula to introduce us all to the families, fun and future promise of young Mssr’s. Donicio and Fredrick.

Barf.

Gadson, listed Thursday night in serious condition, faces armed robbery charges. And because someone was killed during the crime, he also will be charged with murder, authorities said.

Can the hospital lust leave the IV attached to Gadson? Hopefully the Florida's justice system will find a use for it soon.
