Music store owner assaulted with club, shoots criminal

| May 2, 2013

UpNorth sends us the news from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that music store owner Alfred Armen and his wife were assaulted in their business by a man with a club;

The man stayed in the store for two or three minutes, went outside to his car, and came back in with some type of wooden club, Chief Mackey said.

He attacked Sylvia Armen, clubbing her on the head, and Mr. Armen came to her defense, the chief said.

The man then attacked him with the club, and Mr. Armen pulled a revolver and shot him dead, Chief Mackey said.

The most important part of the story is;

The Allegheny County medical examiner’s office removed the body from the store about 4 p.m.

I am sorry the nice lady was hurt, I am thrilled that a sh1tbag is dead though…probably won’t see this story on the evening news….after all wooden clubs don’t kill people right?

Unless you are one of the unlucky thousands killed by blunt force trauma every year…let’s pretend that doesn’t happen….it doesn’t advance the gun grabbing agenda of the left…

OK, I’ll say it . . . “Don’t bring a club to a gunfight!” (smile)

That’s what I call good gun control. Good sight picture, proper trigger release.

Maybe we should register wooden clubs, afterall they kill people //sarc

The chief would not describe the verbal exchange. That’s curious but he sure didn’t leave any doubt as to what his conclusion is. At about 4:20 mins, the reporters starting asking stupid questions and the chief’s face showed he recognized the stupid. He wanted to quit. I did.

Well at least the perp doesn’t have far to go if he wanted someone to play a funeral dirge for him.

FBI stats last released said blunt objects like clubs/hammers kill more people than rifles. Not in this case…. good job, sir.

Dang, that Chief was a whole lot nicer than I’d have been, answering those stupid questions.

Pass a law that if a homeowner or store owner kill a criminal invader they get to hang the body outside as a trophy; and a warning.

#15, I second that, but I’d like to have the option of just displaying the dead goblin’s head on a pike as well!

I only have a few questions: 1.)what caliber, 2.) how many shots hit & 3.) where did the shots hit.

It’s always uplifting to see an American exercising their God-given, Constitutionally-protected rights to alleviate Mother Earth of the burden of carrying along another scumbag.
