Tuesday morning feel good stories
From Chicago, Illinois;
It happened when three men, one of whom was armed, forced their way into an apartment in the 5500 block of North Chester Avenue in the O’Hare neighborhood about 11 p.m., Chicago police said in a media notification.
The offenders pistol-whipped two men inside the apartment and demanded their property and money, police said.
In a struggle that followed, one of the victims wrestled a gun away from an offender. While the offenders ran to a black SUV and silver minivan in a nearby alley, the victim fired several shots, possibly wounding an attacker.
From Lexington, Kentucky;
Police say Sunday night, 57-year-old Marcellus Custard broke the glass out of the front door of a home on KY-1842 and was attempting to unlock the door, when the homeowner shot him.
Custard died from his injuries.
Investigators say Custard was the homeowners ex-husband.

Custard’s Last Stand …
So, Custard couldn’t cut the mustard with his ex?
Guys need to learn that when a woman leaves you, it’s time to just let ‘er go. If you cannot attract another woman, maybe you need to do some self-evaluation and remediation.
Or as Charlie Robison said “A pretty woman, she’ll leave you – leave you to drown in your own tears. An ugly woman, well, she’ll leave you too – but then who freakin’ cares?” (“The Best That I can Do”
Or, in the words of Jimmy Soul:
If you wanna be happy
For the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
So from my personal point of view,
Get an ugly girl to marry you.
Disclaimer: I did not follow Jimmy Soul’s advice in choosing to marry Mrs. GB.
Nice 63 novelty song.
“Marcellus Custard”
*sigh*
Claw….number check on aisle 2…
The results from the TAH Name Scrabble (Home Version)®™ Whiz Wheel are:
Marcellus Custard (DRT) 23×3= 69.
What are the odds that some idiot prosecutor will figure a way to file criminal charges against the victim who defended himself in Chi? Possession of an unregistered gun, unlawful discharge, something silly.
Shooting at the perps as they ran away – charges are definitely a possibility in Kommunist Chikago….
Depends on articulation of all the circumstances.
Technically, you may be authorized to shoot a fleeing criminal based on application of state and local law … and what the SC has to say about it.
But, in this case, when a rat robs a rat and a rat shoots at a rat, the rat who did the shooting will probably get in trouble. I doubt there will be a possession charge, but possibly an unlawful discharge of a firearm.
Two idjits tried to carjack a Chicago cop sitting in his car last night. One of them tapped on the passenger side window, the other pulled a gun on the cop who pulled a gun and shot the perp.
The CPD PR person said ‘this shows how brazen they are’. Not a word about ‘dindonuffins’ or ‘he a good boy’. I admire her vocabulary usage: brazen.

I think Rahmbo’s effectiveness as a mayor has – well, worn thing is a mild way of putting it.
Good for the cop.
And for the CPD PR person.
May Mayor Dumbo-Rahmbo fade into the cesspool and be flushed away.
As Pat Brady of the old half hour Roy Roger’s show used to say “mustard custard”.
Here in Florida we are very gun friendly
Shall issue concealed weapons permits, stand your ground and castle laws all give us Floridians the right to self defense
Shooting at a fleeing perp is strictly forbidden
That would definitely get you charged with something
Especially as “ he may possibly have wounded” one
He could just as easily killed a neighbor
You are responsible for every shot fired
Missing a criminal actively trying to kill you and hitting a neighbor is the criminals’ fault
Missing a criminal running away and killing a neighbor is your fault
That’s how I see it
Doc-I have the seventh edition of The Florida Firearms law, use & ownership by Jon Gutmacher, which lays everything out on what one can and cannot do owning a firearm. Very informative.
Sounds like a game of Clue: Custard in the parking lot with a pistol.
