Ah, sweet justice — drink it in, it always goes down smooth. There are few things that warm my heart quite so much as watching a lawfully armed citizen give a good lesson to a couple of bad guys who seek to threaten, intimidate, and possibly cause fatal bodily harm to others while undermining the rule of law.

I think we should all chip in and buy Sam a .45.
Maybe some markmanship lessons, too. Then, again, he may not have wanted to hit them, considering what happened to George Zimmerman.
I wonder if Zimmerman's attorney's will [be allowed to] present this video in court?
If Obama had two sons, ....
Doesn’t the shooter look like his grandfather?
The spritely young fellow deserves a heroes welcome. Well done.
I don’t care who you are that is funny. Those perps went from gangstahs to all azz and elbows in nothing flat.
Looked like he used a Kahr CW9. But I could be wrong.
