AL Woman Kills Rapist After Prosecutors Cut Another Bad Plea Deal Posted by Bob Owens Once again, Wayne LaPierre and the NRA were proven right. Prosecutors are failing to put bad people in prison for gun crimes or threatening gun crimes, and we all suffer as result. I’m sure we can expect the cries from his family of, “but he was such a good boy!” any minute now, but frankly, nobody cares what they think. What matters is that once again prosecutors cut a violent criminal a plea bargain, putting him back on the streets where he could cause even more havoc before finally being killed by a victim. Authorities are investigating after a man who allegedly abducted and sexually assaulted a 26-year-old woman was found shot to death inside a Forestdale apartment. According to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called to assist Adamsville police in locating a possible abduction victim in the 2800 block of Pebble Creek Parkway. Upon arriving , deputies found the alleged victim in the parking lot and later discovered her alleged attacker fatally shot inside an apartment. The woman told deputies that the man abducted her, forced her inside the apartment and sexually assaulted her. During the alleged attack, the woman says she gained control of a gun and shot the man. The now room-temperature suspect, Jeremy Arnold Ford, has a history of violence, having been arrested for threatening to shoot up an apartment complex last year after he started a fight because he claimed someone stole his (probably illegally acquired) gun. He was able to plea bargain down to a harassment charge, and got off with a suspended sentence. He then used his undeserved freedom to kidnap this woman and sexually assault her, presumably using another firearm of dubious legality as a tool to force her compliance. At some point during the assault she was able to acquire his gun and turned him into a “good criminal.” We offer up our sincere prayers for the victim’s healing, and hope that she is able to recover from this traumatic experience with minimal physical and emotional scarring, secure in the knowledge that she did what she had to do to save her own life and put down another thug after the court system failed to vigorously prosecute a “gun violence” charge http://bearingarms.com/al-woman-kills-rapist-prosecutors-cut-another-bad-plea-deal/

REAL LIFE Home Alone Boy in Shootout With Two Burglary Suspects, KILLS One! 11Nov, 2015by Cassy Fiano A 13-year-old boy who was at home alone used his mother’s gun to fend off two would-be burglars, killing one of them in the process, say police in Ladson, South Carolina. The Charleston County Sheriff’s Office reported that the boy said he heard someone trying to get into his family’s Elderwood Drive home Tuesday afternoon, so he got his mother’s gun and went to the back door of the home. Authorities said the boy told them he fired the gun at a person outside, and the person fired back. Two men, Lamar Anthwan Brown, 31, of Summerville, and Ira Bennett, 28, of North Charleston, fled in a gray Chevy Sonic after being shot at by the boy, say police. Bennett reportedly drove Brown to a hospital, and then took off. Brown died at Trident Medical Center of his gunshot wounds, according to The Post and Courier. Bennett has been charged with first-degree burglary and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. According to authorities, the boy, who is not being identified because of his age, became suspicious of an unfamiliar gray car that had pulled up behind his house. At this point he ‘became concerned for his safety’ and grabbed his mother’s pistol. He began firing at a man who tried to enter the house. The man fired back as he fled in the car. Police later discovered a Colt .45 pistol in the backyard of the Ladson home, one that did not belong to the family. The teen’s mom told police that while she kept a gun in the house, she never trained her son to use it. However, she instructed him to use it if he had to. ‘I tell my kids that if anything ever happens to call 911, but I also tell them to protect themselves if they have to,’ she told the outlet. http://rightwingnews.com/guns/real-life-home-alone-boy-in-shootout-with-two-burglary-suspects-kills-one/
