Big Day for the Count...

Wow. There's a lot of goblins achieving room temperature today...

Police: Ga. fast-food worker kills robbery suspect
SAVANNAH, Ga. — Police in Georgia say a fast-food worker grabbed his gun and shot and killed a man suspected of robbing the restaurant near Savannah.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police say the suspect's body was found in the parking lot of the Wendy's restaurant around 12:50 a.m. Thursday in Wilmington Island.
They herded this guy into the back office and robbed him and the store. He later came out and had a gun pointed at him, at which point he fired his own gun, killing his assailant. Good shootin'!

I hope he took his money back...

This one's a great one:

Henderson teen shoots man who attempted home invasion

A Henderson teenager shot and killed an intruder Thursday morning, according to the Vance County Sheriff's Office.

When deputies arrived at 586 S. Lynnbank Road, they found a man lying in the yard. Michael Anthony Henderson Jr., 19, had been shot in the chest with a shotgun, deputies said. He was taken to Maria Parham Medical Center where he died.

The shooter was a 14 year old boy protecting his 17 year old sister. The dirtbag taking a dirtnap was 19 and had a lengthy criminal record. He also had an accomplice that ran off after his friend took 00 buck to the chest - two teenaged criminals against two younger teens. Those who favor gun control would have those two children at the mercy of violent predators.

I prefer this outcome instead.

Fort Worth woman fatally shoots home intruder

FORT WORTH - A Fort Worth woman shot and killed an intruder early Thursday morning, police said.

The woman told police she heard a knocking at the door around 3 a.m. in the 5700 block of Fortune Road. She called her husband, who told her it wasn't him and to go get their gun.

Goblin changed from knocking to actually breaking and entering and got himself shot in the process. Call it an occupational hazard, if you will - break into enough homes, especially in Texas, and you run the risk of an armed homeowner. Much like a carpenter will most likely hit his thumb with a hammer at some point in his career, you know?

One dead and three injured in East Colfax shooting

AURORA — A botched robbery at an Aurora check-cashing and tobacco store has left one person dead and three injured.

Aurora police spokeswoman Sgt. Cassidee Carlson said two people entered the store and allegedly attempted to rob it.

The interesting part about this is that the owner of this store shot and killed someone trying to rob him just two years ago. How dumb a crook do you have to be to rob a store where the owner has already plugged someone for trying a holdup? One crook dead, another injured, and two people inside the store - including the owner - were also shot.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

That is all.

So many victims....lost by defending themselves and so many victims using tools to protect themselves and others, for the anti freedom-gun violence crowd to rail and rage about...
Oh and lets not forget all "such good little boys" whom met their Maker...And I am betting THAT was not a good meeting....

And yet, tomorrow will bring us another year to add to the DGC. Why, I can hear the Lamentations of the Women of the Anti-Gun Tribe even now... ; )

Two Years!? To a thug that's, like, forever ago. It must-a-never really happened.

:)

But it does serve as a reminder that the bad guys don't care. They are so ignorant about the world outside themselves and feel so entitled that

It not that criminals are dumb, it just that they can't do "big picture." If they could they would NOT be criminals.

And it is that lack of vision that makes them dangerous.
