Amy sends us our first story this morning, coming from Houston, Texas like many of our stories. A neighbor noticed two criminals coming out of a house and went to confront them. When one of the criminals pulled out his gun, the neighbor ventilated him, DRT (dead right there). The other un-assed the AO.

Bannock County, Idaho, Sheriff Lorin Nielsen urges his citizens to carry concealed weapons after going through the licensing procedure, because he admits that he and his deputies can’t protect everyone.

In San Antonio, Texas a burglar was surprised to find a wheelchair-bound resident at home. He was especially surprised when the handicapped fellow stabbed the living sh!t out of him with a pen knife. So he un-assed the AO through a window and the police rolled up on him. The homeowner was uninjured.

This morning, we begin in the town where I went to high school, Lyons, New York. 48-year-old Muhaimin Muhammed shot a homeowner with a BB gun. When that didn’t work, he hit the resident with a tire iron – that didn’t work either because the homeowner tackled Muhaimin and the two tumbled over a railing to the floor below. The homeowner chased the thief into the front yard where police found the pair locked in hand-to-hand combat. Muhaimin Muhammed is recovering from his injuries while the Wayne County Sheriff makes ready his long-term accommodations.

In Stockton, California, a thief tried to rob a convenience store, but the armed clerk fired his gun, harmlessly, at the crook and the criminal left. then he came back announcing that he wasn’t playing and he fired into the business, un-assing the AO. No one was injred in the exchange.

In Memphis, Tennessee, a thief tried to rob two people, when the woman tried to get away, the man took one of the bullets for her, and then, killed the thief (DRT) dead right there with his own weapon. Both of the victims were injured by gunfire, but they’re both recovering.

In San Antonio, Texas, a homeowner heard three intruders trying to break into his home by tearing out his air conditioning unit. He cut loose with a couple of rounds. He found a female criminal DRT (dead right there) with a gun and a knife in her hands. A blood trail led police to a second intruder.

In Anchorage, Alaska, two criminals pepper-sprayed a homeowner when he opened his door, so he started blasting at them without being able to see clearly. The police found one of the suspects at the hospital with an ass wound.

In Chattanooga, Tennessee, a man and his wife experienced a home invasion a few days ago, so he went and bought himself a security system and a gun, just in time for the second attempt where his security system warned him of the impending attack by four teenagers and his handgun broke up the assault when they maced him after they busted down his door.

In Superior, Wisconsin, a store clerk defended himself from an attack by two people, one of whom was shot, the other made his escape into the arms of police. The injured thief is expected to survive.

In Atlanta, Georgia, four fellows were trying to break into trucks in a parking lot when some employees caught them and tried to run them off. As he jumped the fence, one of thieves, we’ll call him “The Blue Falcon”, fired back with a stolen gun at the folks chasing him – his bullet struck one of his pals. They ran off and left their wounded partner and another thief behind for the police.

The first story this morning comes from Shreveport, Louisiana, Barry L. Anthony and his grandson were in their home when three men forced their way in. Barry armed himself and was able to bust some caps in two of the criminals before they could un-ass the AO. They were found by the police with non-life threatening injuries.

In Las Vegas, Nevada, a man confronted some burglars who were plying their trade at his neighbor’s house with a camera in one hand and his gun in the other. The criminals un-assed the AO before police arrived.

An off duty cop went to fill up his car at a convenience store in Newark, New Jersey and interrupted a robbery putting lead into one of the two criminals.

I spent hours yesterday looking for feel good stories and there wasn’t one new story about a civilian using a firearm to defend themselves. I did find an update on a story that might make you feel good. The one we did yesterday from Ladner, South Carolina about the 13-year-old who shot an intruder to death – well I guess the DRT had a partner and that partner was arrested and he was denied bail while he awaits trial. The teen was uninjured in the encounter.

Also, there was one in Denver, Colorado, two potheads pistol-whipped another pothead for his dope. When they left the scene, the police began to chase them and then lost the crooks, so they executed a search warrant based on the license number and found the vehicle that they had used in the commission of the home invasion. Another police department reported seeing the pair in another car. When they cornered the crooks, one of the crooks flashed a handgun and the police ended his crime spree DRT (dead right there). But, you know how they said that legalizing marijuana would cut down on crime? Maybe not so much.

Here’s a late-breaking story from Miami, Florida, where 88-years-old widow Arlene Theresa Orms busted caps on a fellow who broke down her door saving herself from robbery at a minimum. It’s not known if she hit her target, but at least she changed his mind about his intentions.

Near Columbia, South Carolina, a homeowner heard someone banging on his backdoor. When he went to check, he saw someone fiddling around with his vehicle, so he went out to confront the fellow. They got into an altercation and the homeowner fetched his firearm and shot the thief who collapsed about 100 yards away, he was transported to the hospital where he was declared DOT (dead over there). Funny thing, though, in the article, the deceased goes from being a “suspect” to being a “victim” after he’s shot. Journalists, huh? (It looks like they edited the story to read “suspect” instead of “victim” – that’s why I usually screen shot that stuff)

In Ladson, South Carolina, a thirteen year old boy who was home alone heard someone breaking into his home, so he went and grabbed his mother’s gun. The thief tried to break through the back door and the boy opened fire through the door. The criminal fired back and then took off. He was DOT (dead over there) at the hospital.

In Macomb Township, Michigan two grown men in their 50s got into a fist fight over leaves blown into a yard. The 57-year-old, who began the physical portion of the disagreement, was whipping the 52-year-old’s ass until the 52-year-old’s 68-year-old girlfriend came out of the house with her legal firearm and broke up the fight without discharging the gun. The 57-year-old was booked by the police, though.

Another lesson for the kids out there; in South Bend, Indiana, a licensed, legal gun owner has been arrested because he fired his gun at escaping shoplifters in a parking lot of a department store. The prosecutor charged the man with “criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon and pointing a firearm”. Shoplifting all by itself isn’t a capital offense.

We’re a little short of stories for this morning, so for your entertainment here’s a Brazilian thief who shot himself in the foot making his escape;

Like many of our stories, this one happened in Phoenix, Arizona, where a homeowner was awakened by noises coming from his garage. He confronted a transient fellow who charged at him and the homeowner busted a cap in his leg. When the police arrived on the scene, they found prison paperwork in the injured fellow’s pocket. That didn’t last long, did it?

In Jacksonville, Florida, an armed citizen stopped a bank robber who ran out of the bank and collapsed in the parking lot in front of the police, so the citizen saved the local government some money on ammunition. There’s nothing about the condition of Mr Bank Robber.

In Macon, Georgia, three teens were unloading autoparts from a truck into a store when two men approached them and demanded money. Since teenagers have no money, the thugs kidnapped them and took the teens to an ATM, which yielded no booty. The kidnappers then told them to call their boss and have him bring some money. Brian Hinkle came to check on his employees. One of the thugs began shooting at Hinkle, so Hinkle returned fire hitting the gunman three times and he was declared DOT (dead over there) at the hospital. The dead criminal was on two years probation at the time. His partner is in the wind.

In Louisville, Kentucky, a man attempting to invade a home was shot by the resident. The criminal was captured by police when he showed up at the hospital.

The Lake Elsinore, California police received a call from a homeowner that someone was trying to force their way into his home. The homeowner warned the man that he was about to be shot. Before police could get there, the homeowner ventilated the fellow. They sent him to the hospital, but the criminal was DOT (dead over there).

An update on North Carolina Guardsman Semantha Bunce who was injured last week when she defended her newborn child from home invaders with her hand gun. She appears to be recovering nicely. 23-year-old Reco Latur Dawkins Jr turned himself in for his seventh arrest, but this may be the one that sticks – he’s been charged with attempted murder, felony breaking and entering and conspiracy.

We start this morning in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where a man kicked down a homeowner’s door at 10:30 on Sunday morning and the homeowner greeted him with gunfire. The man un-assed the AO in his car, then crashed into a parked car. Police took him to the hospital, but he was pronounced DOT (dead over there).

Two men broke into a home in Birmingham, Alabama, the homeowner greeted them with celebratory gunfire killing one of the pair, DRT (dead right there) and, although the article doesn’t mention the fate of the second suspect, I’m guessing that he un-assed the AO. However the homeowner suffered a non-life threatening gunshot wound.

In Atlanta, Georgia, a woman went to check her mail when a man approached her and demanded her property. She reached in her purse as if she was complying and came out with a gun. She shot him multiple times and he was DRT.
