Some humor this morning to lighten the mood...
The original story:
Shots fired at corner store in Reading; 2 people dead Men shot had just robbed store of lottery tickets, cigarettes, police say
Two men, both armed with guns and wearing masks, had just left the store with stolen cigarettes and lottery tickets when they were confronted by the "concerned citizen," telling both suspects that he was going to call police and advising them to stay where they were, said Berks County District Attorney John Adams. A brief scuffle ensued, during which the suspects pulled out their guns, Adams said. The citizen then pulled out his gun, for which he had a license to carry, and shot both suspects, said Adams, who personally reviewed surveillance video of the scene.

According to Medina, William was "no big hard criminal" and was rather a family-man who loved his young daughter.
He just robbed a store with a stolen gun, and then pointed that gun at another citizen. Yeah, what a great guy!/s

More then a thug. A thug punk, wearing his goofy Bulls hat and the proud owner of an Apple iphone. Must’ve paid for that with a previous robbery.

They were only working men to bad their work was robbing.

William had no right to steal something he could have bought.
He had no right to threaten others with a gun while committing a crime.
A store owner has the right to defend himself with deadly force if necessary.
Case Closed.

Armed robbery has always carried the occupational hazard of getting your ass blown away. It is gratifying that this is still true!!!

I can’t fathom the mindset of these incompetent fools. Would they be ok, if someone broke into their home and stole their stuff? Plain and simple, if the perpetrators were such model citizens, they would not have robbed the store. They got what they deserved.

So according to these sharptons the man in the mask with the gun barrel pointed at your head has more rights to his life than you do.
I disagree.

What they don't want to tell you is that Reading is full to the brim with illegals from the Dominican Republic pretending to be from Puerto Rico. They also, of course, are all on welfare. The nations of the world are basically sending all the poverty and crime to the USA.

If the cops had shot the armed masked robbers they would be immediately condemned by a certain group of posters here.

Respectfully, Mrs Medina has no idea what she is talking about. Her son threatened other people's lives, and forfeit his own as a result. Had he pointed his firearm at the police the result almost surely would have been the same.
What we have here is a typical liberal reaction to an outcome they don't like. Your son is dead? Obviously it is "not fair". Anything liberals don't like is not fair, racist, etc. Well Mrs Medina, the cold hard truth is the outcome here was very fair. Your son got exactly what he deserved.

Why are there so many ‘youths’ of a certain tint who rob, rape, maim and kill?
Answer. Because their families see nothing wrong with robbing, raping, maiming and killing people of a different tint, and defend them and call them innocent even when it’s obvious that they are guilty.
