Don't bring a crowbar to a gunfight!

Another indication that crime in the city is skyrocketing under Mayor Skippy McCloset Bikepath.

Shot him in the leg?
That will not do. Always go for the kill shot. Nobody will sue you.
It’s always easier to defend your actions against a corpse than a cripple.

"He grabbed his gun and confronted the intruder, who police identified as 56-year-old Darrell Bettis.Police said Bettis charged at the man and struck him with a crowbar."

This is why you shoot first when there is an intruder in your home. Although he had a gun when he confronted the guy, the guy was able to rush him and hit him with a crowbar. He could easily have lost that fight, and his life, even though he was better armed.

It looks like all the gun sales Obama encouraged are bearing fruit.

Tueller Drill: Inside 21 feet, pistol v. knife, the one with the pistol is going to get severely injured. The one with the knife may die too, but at that range it’s time to “stop the threat” if there is an immediate danger.

Police said Bettis charged at the man and struck him with a crowbar. After a struggle, police said the homeowner shot Bettis in the upper right thigh.

What ever happened to the "deadly peril-center of mass" thingie??
