The real story here, Baltimore solved a shooting incident. I also know what hoops the young man had to jump through to get that CCW in the PDRofMD. Without that worthless, err, legal nicety this story would have a very different ending.

Here is the video from the shooting last month where the woman was running around pointing a replica revolver at people, till she pointed at the police.

A hand cannon worthy of our own Gun Bunny. Only missing the carriage, wheels, and ammunition caisson.
Never saw a Deagle XIX being fired but saw the famous Auto Mag at the range back in the early 70’s being fired by a guy next to me, and what a flame came out of the barrel.

A fool and his liberty are soon parted.
Dateline; Baltimore, PDRoM.
Good news, young man does what he needs to do to legally carry a self defense weapon as diktated within the state. Uses it to defend self against robber, shoots robber dead.
Taxpayer money saved in arrest, jail (admin, housing, feeding, medical), trial, sentencing, prison (again; admin, housing, feeding, medical, endless futile appeals).
Bad news; percentage of taxpayer money saved is not offered to young man who defended himself.
The descendant’s life is being honored at the Gun Violence Memorial Page if you want to swing by and pay your respects (I tried but it wouldn’t let me update his profile employment “aspiring mugger”)
