Armed defenders put a dent in Milwaukee robbery rate

Posted by David Hardy · 7 September 2014 12:23 PM

First story here. An armed gang tries to rob tavern workers after closing time, one victim opens fire and kills one of the robbers, with police later arresting the remainder. The robbery gang was responsible for dozens of armed robberies over the past three days. The shootee also had a string of arrests for robbery, auto theft, fleeing and whatnot, and had been injured in a gang shooting a few weeks ago.

And last month, a Milwaukee nurse, a victim of an attempted carjacking, shot one carjacker. The day before, the shootee had shot a person during an attempted carjacking; when his accomplice was rounded up, police arrested ten more suspects believed to be involved in dozens of robberies and carjackings.

Hat tip to Tamara Keel.

This is how CCW lowers the crime rate. . The teens robbing tavern workers did many robberies in 3 days and then ran into a CCW holder who shot and killed. That robbery string then ended because police now had one and then could find the others.

Same is true for the car jacking ring. The victim shot one and then the police had enough information to find the others. These teens young as they were are responsible for multiple robberies and violent crime.

It looks like it takes blood to lubricate the wheels of justice in Milwaukee.

Glad the victims were not hurt.
