Great to be back, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes! Raise a glass, mug, hell a goatskin bota bag for all I care, to Dave for his excellent work porting This Ain’t Hell to its new digs. Bravo Zulu, Bro. Damn well done.
We’ll start off with one mort, and taking the article at face value none locked up, and three in the wind.
Armed robber found dead hours after being shot in DeSoto
By FOX4News.com Staff
DeSoto PD is investigating a man’s claim that he fatally shot an armed robber — but didn’t know it until the next day.A homeowner called police Tuesday morning after finding a body in a DeSoto neighborhood.
Police had investigated a report of gunshots there late Monday night, but they did not find anything. Then, the would-be robbery victim came forward.
Police spent almost the whole day processing the scene and collecting evidence. They now believe it was an attempted robbery that ended in gunshots and a dead robber.

Another mort today, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, and none inconvenienced or in the wind. Poor sportsmanship, letting him get away and bleed out. Should have followed the blood trail to put the poor thing down humanly.
I’m kidding, of course. Mostly.
*grin*
Police rule justified self defense in fatal apartment shooting
RENO, NV (KOLO) – Reno Police say a fatal shooting at an apartment complex Monday was justified.
By Staff
Police were called about 6:15PM May 6, 2019 to the Evergreen Apartments on Brinkby Avenue. They found 35-year-old Christopher Jimenez with a gunshot wound to his abdomen. He died after being taken to a hospital.
Detectives spoke with several people on scene, including the shooter, and pieced together a timeline that shows Jimenez had been acting out of character in an apparent “altered state of consciousness,” according to police, when he started an unprovoked and violent fight with a resident of the complex who had been sitting on the landing outside his apartment.
Another resident of the complex, who has a concealed carry permit and was armed with a handgun, saw the fight and tried to intervene. Witnesses say Jimenez stopped his attack on the first person and rushed the resident with the gun, who then stepped back and told Jimenez to stop, but Jimenez instead starting fighting him. That’s when the resident with the gun fired a round and stopped the attack.

Friday Trifecta, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, well done. Three morts and three in the wind has a nice symmetry, and can only be an indication of good times ahead.
There is no way to rule innocent men. The only power government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. — Ayn Rand in her must-read novel, Atlas Shrugged

“the 41-year-old American fought off three masked men at his Landstuhl home in February, but a fourth pushed past him”
I would feel much better if the story was about 4 shot burglars.
In Western Europe? Ain’t gonna happen.
This is not the Germany of 1969.
El CID had their hands full with Hashish back then or the occasional GI killing a chicken with a 3/4 ton.
Even the Kaiserslautern girls would be shocked.
The shakes and the DTs are almost completely gone now. However there is some serious swelling going on in the nether region. I, mean, what do you expect….TAH is back, a trifecta of room temperature scumbags, proof that not even the vaunted German Polizei can protect its citizens (4 to 1 with only a knife), plus a shiney example of the design of The Saintly Brother John Moses Browning (Howitzer Be His Name)…Life is good!
Welcome Back TAH. My time traveling caused me to miss the follow up memo on the migration. Thanks to all who keep us “hooked up.”
Wonder if it was Islams that attacked the family in Berlin. If so, AP would do all in their ability to conceal that fact.
The attack was in Landstuhl, where we have a nice American Hospital, the story was out of Berlin. It is a shame that things like this happen all over the world…I thought it only happens in America where we have those crazy assault rifles running free! Except in California where your neighbors call the cops on you if they don’t like you having guns as a collection.
Wouldn’t it have been something if DeSoto was found dead in a DeSoto.
I was going to mention that Jeff but I realized that very few people would know what a Desoto is. Unless of course they got their dick wet in one.
