Thank the good Lord I live in Texas. But depending on the size of the police department you might have to clean the mess up yourself.

If true justice is ever achieved in this matter, that prosecutor should be the most over-qualified TSA drone on the X-ray machine at the Detroit airport.

Cracking the door frame Nelson’s family says Joey grabbed his gun and yelled for Wilson to leave.

This is one of the most poorly written articles I’ve read this year.

But, it’s only the 12th.

Law enforcement agencies in Texas have learned that no-knock raids, and especially during the night, is not a good plan.

Have been a number of no-knock raids in which the homeowners have shot and killed Law enforcement officers; and the prosecutors could not get the grand juries to indict the homeowner.

Yes, it makes you wonder if the author even speaks English.

Possibly native language is Ebonics.

Yes, Detroit is a basket case. Probably the words Trump is accused of saying apply to Detroit like to some foreign countries.

Even the dummie thieves get the message pretty quick, when the response is in lead.

Do you really have to ask?

Did you see this? Does anyone really need to ask? What kind of person needs to ask anyway?

“My LOCKED front gate is more than 500 yards from the road.”

What offense are we talkin’ bout here? Somebody just standing around 1500 feet away or someone charging the place with guns blazing or ?

This $hit makes my blood boil. Look who’s the prosecutor. Wilson should be the one in jail... but that makes too much sense. What was her motivation to bring the charges she made? And what information was given to her by the arresting officers?

Note to self:... stay the “F” away from Detroit!

“Do you really have to ask?”

I’m thinkin’ it’s not a bad idea for a guy to consider what is a shoot/don’t shoot situation ahead of time. If he goes picking off people just because they’re 1500 hundred feet from his place, I think he’d likely have a few questions to answer.

That is the way I read it. Some nut shooting into the house and the marine returned fire. I would have as well. If I am on the jury and this indeed is how the event happened this guy walks.

The author is clearly a product of the public education system. They probably graduated with honors in their English classes.

Only crime of the Marine? Carrying concealed weapon without a license.

At home?
Makes no sense.

Arrested?
with 3-1/2 witnesses?

WTF?

Detroit was once a great city before being wrecked by unions and liberal thinking.

Small quibble...
You left out the most serious and egregious component,

Was Wilson some sort of buddy (or co-conspirator) with the LEOs on scene?

Or the judge and her homies...?
