Saturday feel good story
Chief Tango sends us links to today’s feel good story which comes from Houston. The details are a bit muddled, but it looks like it could have been an attempted carjacking foiled by the car’s owner, while three gunmen tried to turn their lives around by taking possession of it. From the Houston Chronicle;
Police said a 32-year-old man meet two other men in the parking lot to make a deal for used auto parts. When the man got out of his vehicle, the suspects walked over to him and demanded his money and other items at gunpoint.
Police said the robbery victim, who has a concealed handgun license, pulled out his weapon and opened fire on them. One of the suspects, whose name has not been released, died at the scene. The other suspect was wounded and it is believed he ran away into a nearby field, climbed into a vehicle and sped away.
KHOU tells the tale of the second injured fellow;
The injured man drove himself to LBJ Hospital where he is being treated for a gunshot wound to the arm.
A third man was taken to HPD headquarters for questioning.
The security guard wasn’t injured. Police say the guard did not fire his weapon so it remains unclear who shot the two men.
The third man was apprehended by a security guard according to MyFox26;
When gun shots rang out, the security guard at Fiesta Mart alerted police and charged to the parking lot taking one of the men into custody.
So all’s well that ends well;

Good guys win again, Hooray!
If only Chicago could take a hint from this they wouldn’t be asking for the National Guard to be activated to patrol the streets.
Wait. So, a man who legally owned a gun for self defense was able to defend himself against men who, more than likely, illegally obtained a gun? That’s ludicrous. We need more gun laws to keep thugs from illegally obtaining guns!
@2-You expect common sense to occur in Chicago. That is asking FAR too much of both the cits who live there and the city they live in.
Good ole street justice!
One five dollar bill says if Chicago gets the NG troops, they will be patrolling un-armed, too. As for these economically disadvantaged young men in Houston, I am willing to bet Quanell-X will out raising a ruckus again, telling Houstonian’s that they be raaaayyyyyysis keeping ’em down all the time, no kind of jobs available and they was jus’ pursuing truth, justice and good ol’ fashun capitalism, ya know?
Quick draw on that CCW holder!
God bless Texas!!
Zimmerman not guilty. Another Saturday feel good story.
I’d bet that Insipid and Joey the rock-climbing zero are about ready to explode about now.
See according to the limbs he should have given the car up. Promoting racial equality and all that jazz. Plus he’s insured right?
