WHATABULLET: Armed Robbers Target Wrong Man At Burger Joint Posted by Bob Owens on March 18, 2016 at 8:09 am Two Democratic thugs thought they had an easy score when they saw a single man eating in his car in a Whataburger parking lot in Dallas, Texas. They were very, very wrong. Two armed robbers picked the wrong victim in northwest Dallas. Police said they approached a man eating his dinner in the parking lot of Whataburger at Inwood Road and Lemmon Avenue and tried to rob him around 1 a.m.Thursday morning. The man was an off-duty, but armed security guard. He shot and killed one of the robbers. The other ran away. Armed robbers fully expect compliance. If a trained victim with a plan of action feigns compliance before suddenly and smoothly responding, they quite often overwhelm the criminals both physically and mentally. In this instance, the security guard got shots on target quickly and killed one robber with accurate fire, forcing the other to flee for his life. A man believed to be the second suspect was quickly apprehended by police nearby. ............. http://bearingarms.com/whatabullet-armed-robbers-target-wrong-man-burger-joint/

Two Youths, Turning Their Lives Around, Get Ballistic Therapy In PA Posted by Bob Owens on March 23, 2016 at 8:28 am Two Democratic youts… …young criminals, were shot during the commission of an attempted home invasion in Jeannette, Pennsylvania last night, by the owner of the home they were trying to invade. Police in Jeannette, Westmoreland County said two juveniles were shot while attempting to force their way into a home on Chestnut Street Tuesday night. The incident happened shortly after 11 p.m. Police said the juveniles ran from the scene after being shot. One collapsed nearby. Both were taken to area hospitals. Neighbors said that there had been recent surge in burglaries in the area prior to the shooting. I somewhat suspect that home invasions will be a bit more subdued in the Jeannette area with two less criminals operating in the area. The investigation is still very preliminary, but it seems unlikely that the homeowner will be charged, as he or she has a right to defend the home under castle doctrine. http://bearingarms.com/two-youths-turning-lives-around-get-ballistic-therapy-pa/

Road-Raging Florida Man Killed In Self-Defense Shooting Posted by Bob Owens on March 22, 2016 at 6:04 pm A man involved in a road rage incident in south Florida is deceased after attacking an armed citizen. Fortunately for the victim of the road-raging attacker, his girlfriend was smart enough to videotape the confrontation, which was supported by other eyewitness accounts as well. There are no happy endings here, but at least the man who was attacked will likely avoid jail time. A man who shot and killed another driver during a road rage incident may have done so in self-defense, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said Monday. The incident happened just after 6 p.m. Sunday shot in the 1300 block of Southwest 48th Avenue in unincorporated Central Broward near Fort Lauderdale. On Monday, BSO said Jack Bellino, 28, and Don William Alvarez, 27, were heading in opposite directions when Bellino “may have accidentally swerved into Alvarez’s lane,” BSO said in a release. That’s when Alvarez made a U-turn and followed Bellino, BSO said. At some point Bellino Shot Alvarez, who later died. BSO said in a statement “homicide detectives said the statements provided by Bellino and Alvarez’s girlfriend were consistent with eyewitness accounts and her cell phone video that suggested the shooting was a result of self defense.” It’s horrible that Bellino was forced to shoot Alvarez over this, and we can of course never know precisely why Alvarez took a driving mistake so personally that he put the lives of other people at risk. The big take away from this is that you can find yourself in a life-or-death situation without intentionally placing yourself into one for something as simple as a careless mistake. Be armed, be trained, and have a plan. http://bearingarms.com/road-raging-florida-man-killed-self-defense-shooting/

Robbery (or worse) foiled when young woman pulls weapon on Democrats One young woman showed three men that her daddy didn’t raise no dummy! The 22 year old was shopping at a northwest Oklahoma City Dollar Tree store and noticed three men watching her. After exiting the store, the woman knew she was being followed as the men continued to trail her all the way to her car. One of the men asked if she would go with them and she refused. He then commanded her to turn over her purse, but she had other plans. Having a former police officer for a father and a concealed carry permit, the woman drew her gun from that purse to take control of the situation. Her quick thinking and strong actions sent the three men fleeing to their vehicle and the woman called police to report the incident. Her father, Bradd Brown, says he raised his daughter around guns and gun safety, and was proud that his daughter knew what to do when confronted with a potentially dangerous situation. “The main thing I tried to instill with her through the years was just be real aware of your surroundings,” he said. “We really don’t know exactly what his intentions were but she really had no choice but to show that firearm at that time and it worked and he backed off. She got away safe and that’s really what we were concerned about,” says her father. bearingarms
