One man was killed and another was at large Wednesday after a woman put her father’s lesson in firearms to use during a burglary in southeast Oak Cliff.

“I just hate that she didn’t get both of them,” said Charles Brown, the homeowner.

Dallas police say Brown’s daughter was upstairs about 11:30 a.m. when the two men kicked down the front door of the family’s home on Concordia Lane, southwest of Camp Wisdom and Houston School roads.

The woman, alerted by a home alarm, fired several shots at the men, striking at least one of them as they charged up the stairs.

Both men ran out the front door, where one of them collapsed. Isaiah Phillip Williams, 19, of Dallas was taken to Methodist Dallas Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

The second man fled and had not been found, according to Dallas police Senior Cpl. Sherri Jeffrey. A blue Chevrolet Impala with temporary tags believed to belong to one of the intruders was towed from the scene.

Brown said he taught his adult daughter to use a gun after a string of burglary attempts at the family’s home.

They didn’t say, but my guess is that if the Food Stamp President had sons, they would have turned out just like these two!

I'll walk the streets of south Oak Cliff at night.

With a few sniper teams on roofs and a brigade behind me, otherwise, ferget it. I'm not young and stupid anymore.

It's not a place for those raised genteel.

It is a place of the quick, and the dead.

Well, one obama voter eliminated. Hopefully, the other is in hiding for a month. Of course, with obama voting fraud-—they both just may vote anyhow.

I live in Oak Cliff and feel pretty safe here...but we are well armed with a barky terrier and a mutt rescued off the streets that does not take kindly to strangers.....

I take my dogs for a walk at night here in my hood but we aren’t in south Oak Cliff, that is where all the action is....

When I was a young fool, I spent some time in South Oak Cliff.

Then I became an old fool, that knew that he could die badly. I avoid most parts of Dallas, these days. ;)

Their call- should they be so inclined...

Roaches sometimes give up and leave. Shining light tends to dissuade them.

“Well, one obama voter eliminated.”

Hmm. But he already voted — three times. Dead right — we gotta track down those votes and rescind all 3 !

I grew up in OC. There have always been good and bad parts. The black parts are still the bad parts. Deal with it,

I got a tip about a fantastic fried chicken place in South Cliff when I lived in North Dallas. So the next time I had business downtwon (which is only 150 miles away, lol...), I looped around to South Cliff. I wanted to see where SRV grew up, anyway. Then I went and got the chicken (excellent), and sat outside eating it, at dusk... and realized I was not in a wise place to be at that time of the evening.

So I cleaned up, casually made my way back to the car with the rest of the chicken, and drove off.

'Nuff said.
