Wednesday morning feel good story
In Houston, Texas, three youngsters tried to turn their lives around by liberating some of the assets at a local convenience store. After pistol-whipping some of the employees, another employee ventilated two of the three who were declared DOT when they showed up at the hospital.
Someone should tell journalists down there in Texas that they shouldn’t use quotes from folks who have trouble with English to tell the story, I had to read it like three times to figure out what they were trying to say, especially at this link.
Chief Tango sends us a link to an incident in Onslow County, North Carolina, where 21-year-old Gaberail Denton Wright, reported to be a Marine veteran, was practicing his low crawl across the floor of a homeowner who didn’t appreciate Wright’s training and shot him in the abdomen. I’m guessing that Wright left the Corps rather abruptly given his age. Another link tells how Wright had lived with the homeowner after he left the Marines and they had tossed him out when he was charged with identity theft and had forged some of the homeowner’s checks.

Okay, in seeking to expand my repertoir, (I use DRT all the time now)….DOT…Dead Over There?
Yup
Guard Bum LOL, I’M LEARNING the abbreviations and each one is funnier than the last..
Awesome, thanks!
Can we expect a follow up with Wright’s FOIA paperwork in the near future? I’m guessing that, given his no-go at several skill level 1 tasks, that he wasn’t much of a Marine.
I like this:
“two of the three who were declared DOT when they showed up at the hospital.”
What did they do? Drive themselves?
Reminds me of this nonsense children’s rhyme from my mother:
“Early one morning, late one night,
Two dead boys got up to fight.
Back to back, they faced each other,
Drew their swords, and shot each other.
The deaf policeman heard the noise
And came and arrested the two dead boys.”

Regarding the Houston incident.
First 2 of the 3 were shot the 3rd suspect must have driven them to the hospital. Surveillance video shows all 3 leaving in the same car.
Second. That is a bad side of town. It is a mixture of Asian Hispanic and Black populations. Odds are 2/3 are not going to be native English speaking.
That clerk sure did a number on this group. I wonder what kind of gun he used.
Two down and I’m sure we’ll hear about the third sometime in the future.
