Robinson allegedly stole three vehicles in a pre-dawn crime spree that ended with his death inside a residential garage in the 9000 block of North Garfield Avenue in Kansas City, North. He allegedly fought with the homeowner, who killed him with two shotgun blasts after Robinson stole keys and tried to drive off in the family’s vehicle.

The homeowner’s wife held their child and hid in a closet while calling 911 after Robinson broke into their home, police said.

But not any more...

“NOW he is a “good kid” and will do no more drugs, burglaries, assaults, robberies, etc., you know the drill.”

Yep, that pretty much sums it up

Drugs can age a body pretty quickly.

Same guy - I saw a pic like that in another article.

Thanks kevcol.

Charles Robinson said he understood the homeowner’s need to protect himself, but he wondered why the homeowner fired a second round at his son, who he believes was unarmed. He said his son was shot in the side.

Well, one thing is sure, he's unarmed now. And, he's no longer troubled by the scourge of addiction.

The comments you see on stories are heartening. There are a lot more people out there who think like FReepers than you might think.

Scary is that many law enforcement and politicians think the homeowner defending himself and his family...is the criminal

Good shot. Criminals dying in the commission of crime is good for everyone

They must have been as you said. The paper deleted them all and disabled any new comments.

Too much truth is a dangerous thing, especially for the KC Star

Only six? You can do better than that. Go for lucky 13!

Yes, I understand that about this case. But in general, in cases like this, there are a lot of “us” out there.

[kevcol]

Read the comments at this article (linked by RWA above), about the same event, but with comments enabled. I would go as far as to say they are even less restrained than here.

People are really fed up with this stuff, and when unconstrained by Political Correctness, really let fly.

Thanks for the link. That was an enjoyable read.

Just once I want to hear a parent say they raised their Thug better than this,
and he deserved what was coming to him for his actions.

Another justice served to the public on a slab. Good riddance.

Christopher Robinson, 30. Gone to Pooh.

I bet he never tries that again.

six is plenty for the shotgun. then 15 9mm follow that and 15 more right behind that.

You can never have enough 12 gauge slugs alternating with 00 buckshot to pile them up higher and deeper. There’s a reason the German’s didn’t like us using shotguns in WW I.
