Tuesday morning feel good stories

| July 25, 2017

From DeKalb County, Georgia;

Police say a homeowner shot and killed a man dressed like a woman after he broke into his home.

It happened in Lithonia near Brownsmill Road just after 2 a.m.

Channel 2’s Liz Artz spoke to DeKalb County Police Lieutenant Lonzy Robertson about the case Monday.

“The homeowner gave him a warning. The suspect continued to approach him at which time the homeowner fired one shot,” Robertson said.

From Jackson, Mississippi;

Boyd is accused of breaking down the front door of a home in the 500 block of N. Waterloo Street with two other men at about 2 a.m., July 17, 2016, with the intent to steal the homeowner’s medical marijuana, police said.

The homeowner, who had armed himself after previous break-ins, confronted the men inside his home and fired a single shot, striking Boyd as he approached, police said.

Officers arrived at the scene to find the door knocked off its hinges and flattened to the floor and Boyd with a single gunshot wound, police said.

Since the incident, Boyd has been at a rehabilitation facility recovering from the gunshot wound, police said. He was discharged Wednesday, June 21 and was arrested at that time.

The homeowner, Richard Snyder, was found to have justifiably acted in self-defense and the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office declined to charge him with any crime.

From Killeen, Texas;

When officers arrived to the scene, they found a woman later identified as 23-year-old Raven Symone Fisher lying on the ground at the apartments. Officers then began to perform life-saving measures.

A preliminary investigation determine that Fisher confronted the male victim about a parking complaint while she was armed with a handgun. The victim who is licensed to carry a handgun attempted to diffuse the confrontation with the suspect unsuccessfully. He defended himself with his handgun from the assault, police said.

The victim was initially detained by police and later released with no charges.

Fisher succumbed to her injuries at the scene and was pronounced dead at the scene at 3:44 a.m.

Legally armed citizens are protecting themselves and their goods. I would think that the thugs, punks and other undesirables would get the hint that they are in a life threatening vocation.

Hold on, that story from DeKalb County is wrong. The homeowner must be transphobic, and so is the PD. The homeowner should have tolerated the tranny when she he entered his home. And the Police spokesperson misgendered the poor tranny by calling him a male, not it’s preferred gender.

my first reaction too was ‘that homeowner is in a world of hurt now.’ Second was ‘here’s the next headline for assaults on TG/gross-dressers’

David

cross dressers…. the old fat-finger is working well.

Ex-PH2

Gross-dressers is just fine with me.

They all have bad taste in clothing.

Think you were right the first time David.
