Tuesday morning feel good story
These have been coming is slower than normal lately, but here are three for your Tuesday moring muffin goodness. The first is from Alabama, where a homeowner came home in the early evening to find two armed thugs had beat him home;
At least one of the suspects brandished a gun and shot the homeowner in the leg, who in turn, shot one of the suspects. Southeast Shelby Rescue paramedics and Wilsonville firemedics treated both persons at the scene. The homeowner was transported to a local hospital via ambulance with non life-threatening injuries. The suspect was transported to a local hospital via helicopter with more serious injuries. – See more at: http://www.shelbycountyreporter.com/2014/01/26/two-shot-injured-in-wilsonville-home-burglary/#sthash.zo4UEiFz.dpuf
The other two are from Chief Tango and they’re both from Texas, the first from San Antonio;
The homeowner told police he was watching television when the men showed up at his door.
They were banging on the door, yelling at him to come out.
The homeowner told police he was afraid for his life, so he grabbed a shotgun and fired one shot through a window, hitting one of the suspects.
The other suspects drove him to a hospital downtown where they were all taken into custody.
The next story is from Port Arthur where four thugs held the homeowner at gunpoint while the fellows removed their property;
As the men left, a resident fired at least one shot at the suspects. Evidence at the scene led officers to believe that the suspects fired back.
The police department reports receiving a 911 call of shots fired just after 10 p.m. in the 300 block of 9th Street. A second call mere minutes after the first, reported a shooting victim at another location.
Officers spoke with the residents at the location of the first call and were told that three men had forcibly entered the home.
Officers believe that the shooting victim reported during the second call is a possible suspect in the home invasion.
The shooting victim was taken to Christus Hospital St. Elizabeth in Beaumont. He is listed in critical condition.

Aaaah, a Threefer. This Cuban Coffee is so sweet and rich, assisted by these feel good stories. By this time tomorrow, we here in the NW Panhandle of Florida will be deep in the throes of an Ice Pellet assault. Somehow I don’t see that as being nearly as bad as a shotgun pellet assault.
I have laid in the requisite Milk, Bread and toilet paper, so I am good to go for this oncoming storm. I don’t think the Shotgun pellet receiver feels quite as good as I do this morning.
This reminds me of a feel good story from when I was stationed at Ft. Wainwright. I got an early morning phone call from one of my Squad Leaders telling me he won’t be in for PT. Him and his wife had came home to find that a man had broken in and was sleeping on his couch. His wife went outside and he got his gun and woke the guy up telling him if he moves he would shoot him. The guy came at him. My Squad Leader got him in a rear naked choke and started hitting him with his pistol until the intruder went unconcious. When the police arrived he explained what had happened and told them that he is a level 3 combatives instructor. The cop replied “it looks like he chose the wrong house to break into”. Needless to say the intruder was intoxicated.
Damnnnn, this goes very well with coffee and bagels w/cream cheese.Hey dumbasses in Tewxas. The state motto is not just about littering. A 50% or .500 average would earn you a lot of money inpro baseball. The crooks wish these averages werew a lot lower. Tuesday 3fer,now if it would just warm up to average winter temperatures. Joe
