Monday morning feel good stories
From North Hollywood, California;
An auto parts store employee was handcuffed after fatally shooting a man he said was breaking into a vehicle in North Hollywood Saturday night, police said.
Los Angeles firefighters responded to the 6000 block of Lankershim Boulevard shortly before 6 p.m. A body was seen covered in a white sheet at the scene, which was located next to a motel.
An employee at the auto parts store said he opened fire when he noticed somebody breaking into a vehicle, police said. The vehicle was parked just north of Oxnard Street at the business Pacific Parts and Instruments.
Police said multiple employees were inside the store when they noticed the burglar, and one armed employee went outside to confront the suspect. The employee then fired about four shots, according to LAPD Capt. Elaine Morales.
From Black Lick, Pennsylvania;
State police say a Pennsylvania man who broke into a house from which he had been barred by a protection order was shot and killed by a resident.
Police in Indiana County said 48-year-old Stacy Livingston had been evicted from and excluded from a home in Burrell Township but returned early Saturday and broke in through a basement window.
Police said the intruder’s wife and five other family members were inside, and an adult family member shot him in the chest. No charges have been filed and the investigation continues.

California guy gets arrested.
Figures.
When are those idiots either going to secede or just break off and float away?
They’re still waiting for The Big One. NHSparky.
“He came in through the basement window,
Protected by his silver spoon……”
Apparently it wasn’t protection enough.

Nice! I love to start the day with two DRT’s!
No more stealing my oxygen!
And the world is a little nicer place, now…….
Say, those protection orders really work! As long as someone has the ability to enforce them, and provides the protection.
Yeah, kinda like the guy said about you can get a lot with a smile, but a smile and a gun gets you lot more.
What was the lyric- “he walked through that restraining order and put her in intensive care.” Not happenin’ this time.
A nice thing about a protection order – it gives one an extra layer of defense and credibility in the eyes of the DA when you apply the lead-pill injections to the person against whom the order is issued.
Order of protection ignored.
Obviously, the fellow who ignored it is illiterate. Didn’t understand that ‘no’ means ‘no’. He may have thought it meant ‘well, maybe’.
Does anyone think he finally understood the difference? Yeah, me, neither.
At the end of the day, a protection order is just a piece of paper.
But when presented in court after a defensive shooting, it is a piece of paper that helps protect the shooter, hence the protection of a protective order.
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
But most firearms rounds are supersonic, so they get where they’re needed PDQ.
