Another case of armed criminal disarmed by citizen

Posted by David Hardy · 27 March 2009 12:50 PM

Howard Nemerov discusses it here. Gun wielding crook invades house, homeowner wrestles with him for gun, crook shoots self, homeowner's girlfriend stabs crook, crook flees.

The antis have the narrative of armed citizen being disarmed by criminal, but it's all other way around. The victim has the advantage of not being drug-addled or drunk, having twice the intellect and judgment of the aggressor, and of standing on the defensive.

Video here.

NB: if planning to rob a convenience store, do not announce the robbery and then find you can't get the gun out of your pocket.

Dumb crooks -- felon in possession

Posted by David Hardy · 6 June 2008 07:26 PM

Note: if a person is a felon, they shouldn't possess a firearm. And if they do, they shouldn't take a picture of themselves doing so. And if they do take such a picture, they shouldn't use somebody else's camera phone.
