Your Tuesday feel good story
Lerxst & Chief Tango send us links to today’s tale of impetuous youths turning their lives around, this time in San Antonio, TX;
Investigators said three masked men kicked in the front door of an apartment unit and began to ransack the home.
Police said one of the suspects grabbed the tenant, 21-year-old Dmitri Lawrence Brown, by the throat, forced him down, then put a hand over his eyes while the other two suspects attempted to steal jewelry from the apartment.
As the suspects were leaving, Brown was able to get up and grab a gun, police said. He then shot and killed the suspect who had been holding him down, police said.
Brown also opened fire on the other two suspects, but they fled in a silver Dodge Charger.
Police said this all occurred with four children and their mother, 49-year-old Evangeline Tubig, inside the apartment. None of them were reportedly injured.

The suspect.
Unfit police department strikes again.
Again with Texas? When will these idiots learn that Texans keep guns around… And are not afraid to use them. I guess the best way to fight crime is to make the criminals pay a price for their lawless acts. The criminal justice system is ill fitted to truly punish the offender. An armed citizen can make crime a very costly enterprise for the crook.
Roger, you should read your own copy.
You said ‘idiots’. They don’t learn because they are idiots. It’s not when, it’s a matter of ‘whether or not’ they even have the capacity to learn anything.
I’m glad that the women and children are safe. Always a hazard in these situations.
And I’m equally glad that one perp has made the ultimate decision in “turning his life around”.
@3 Ex PH2, You caught me. I fell into the that old redundancy trap. Defining people by the definition of their actions. However, it is OK to define them by the outcomes of their actions. In this case dead equals idiot and I stand by that.
Again, one less punk the taxpayers will have to feed, clothe, and house.
Don’t mess with Texas!
A large number of us in San Antonio are heavily-armed pacifists.
