Another violent felon put out of business. Best possible outcome.

San Pablo is not SF. San Pablo is a 90% black, 20% unemployed town in west Contra Costa County. To add a strange quirk to the situation, Contra Costa County has the highest median personal income of California counties, and third in the U.S.

NEXT!

Police have contacted his mother, who lives in San Pablo. "She seemed to be a genuinely good person," Lewellyn said.

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you that the deceased perp's father wasn't interviewed.

How long will this stuff be acceptable to the perp's communinity? How long until they start to take responsibility for this mess? How long until they stop blaming whitey and start doing what's necessary to stop this?

I won't hold my breath.

I’m not sure if you’ve seen some 16 year olds but I remember my mom being concerned who I was talking to coming off the trolley one day in Philly because they looked so much older.

One of my elementary school friends was killed while engaged in a robbery attempt (with a pocket knife) and another (named Sanders too, oddly enough) got away.

Sad in one way but I’d pretty calmly smoke someone who threatened my pet, let alone pointed a weapon at me. Wouldn’t think much about it afterwards, at least not from a ‘trauma’ standpoint.

A kind of win - win situation, huh?

It is a sad that the guy must be removed from society to make innocent people safe, but that is the case. If the government would make a real effort to defend innocent citizens, people would not have to. Coddling criminals results in more of them being killed by their intended victims.

“He pulled a handgun and fired numerous shots, striking Sanders in the head and chest.”

Good training!

[lewislynn]

And the fourth win. Every worthless dickhead in San Pablo will think twice about committing another robbery at that place of business...and maybe others too.

Thanks for your adult response. There is no glamour in using deadly force.

I have carried for years, and have often said that I fully expect that my extensive training and practice would kick in and I would do whatever is necessary to stop a deadly threat.

OTOH, I have also said that, afterward, I fully expect that I would be traumatized at having been forced to inflict deadly harm on another person -- and I wonder if I could handle the remorse of having had to use my weapon on a young person.

But -- defense comes first; remorse comes later...

I hope even in moonbat SF, a jury won’t believe that a man who had three thugs against one, one armed with a sawed-off shotgun, didn’t have the right to defend himself.

Don't put any money on it, that is San Francisco you know, the world's largest outdoor freak show.

Most of the moonbats out there probably believe the shop owner had it coming because he was making a profit off the stuff he sells to the poor residents of that area by actually charging them for his merchandise. He should have just handed the cash drawer over to the poor downtrodden little teenage hoodlum instead of using a horrid gun to stop the poor misunderstood youngster from killing him.

CRIME DOES NOT PAY! It’s in the book.

Irresponsible, flipant responses are worth refrencing ???

Why don’t you call Brian and ask him how he is sleeping?

[editor-surveyor]

"It is a sad that the guy must be removed from society to make innocent people safe, but that is the case"

No question about that, but one childish, ignorant postor here said "nice." That invidious attitude will lead him to a homicide conviction, should he ever be allowed to carry. There are some among us that should never be allowed near firearms.

I do not believe that any of the principals or incidentals of this death would concur with his assessment.

[editor-surveyor]

"Gee I just love happy endings...."

Why don't you ask Brian Wogsland if its a 'happy ending?'

[tubebender]

We get KTVU 2 news out of Oakland on cable here behind the Redwood Curtain and their spin on this story was the owner acted rashly and it was not fair. I was screaming at the nutburgers and my First Wife came running because she thought a snake was under my desk or FR was down again...

[Americanwolfsbrother]

Because of his actions Mr. Wogsland will be able to answer questions. Don’t know if that would be the case if he hadn’t pulled the trigger.AWB
