SF’s North Beach shooting was a botched armed robbery, police say [More]
Sounds like the guy who defended himself deserves a medal, not an arrest.

Notes from the Resistance
We could even encourage worried homeowners to buy bear spray for protection. I backpack, and it’s well known that bear spray is more effective against a charging grizzly than a handgun. Probably also more effective against a home invader. Think of it as harm reduction. [More]
That ought to go real well indoors.
As for outdoors, I’m thinking the Tueller drill shows a human can traverse 21 feet in a second-and-a-half and I’m guessing how long an 800 Lb. bear at 35mph would take and how close it actually has to get to be assured of a face-full, and wondering if that would be enough, and then remembering how some have been seen rolling around in pepper spray, and noting rangers carry guns, and then what he’d do against an armed home assailant, and… what the hell. It’s not like this chronic idiot is worth debating.

Good– Democrat-enabled crime is waking people up to the reality that they’re on their own. But unless he’s physically incapacitated, you gotta wonder what kind of man relies on his wife to defend him.

Sorry, “heroic” is not the first word that comes to mind. Then again, me ‘n “Real Man” never did see eye-to-eye on that.
Compare to the same number of predators when a victim is armed.

According to Asst. Chief Ernest Garcia, four suspects in masks entered the store and started robbing customers at gunpoint. That’s when an armed customer pulled out their weapon and shot at the suspects, Garcia said. Three of the robbery suspects were shot. [More]
This makes it seem like he has a good presence of mind. Let’s hope that extends to what he told police before seeing an attorney. And let’s hope the attorney advises the intent was not to stop a robbery, it was because the gun owner was acting in self-defense.

How often do you see a prosecution where the police are witnesses for the defense? Gov. Abbott should just pardon this guy, right now, and stick it up Soros’ @$$. [More]
Yep. Not that the Dementing Moms would agree.

Evidently, everyone who doesn’t want to see foreign and domestic enemies destroy the Republic is an antisemite.
Looks like Abbott’s up on pardoning. Now let’s see if the Texas AG is up on prosecuting the damn Marxist persecutor. Enough with “law enforcement.” It’s past damn time for some rights enforcement.
UPDATE
Andrew Branca says the “conviction was legally sound.”
FAFO. [More]
However, the prosecutor said the shooting was not justified because Colie shot someone who was unarmed inside a mall. The judge denied the bond request and believed Colie was a danger to the public.
And the harasser got within six inches? I may have reacted physically, too, and we know what a well-placed fist can do.
I don’t think it’s out of line to wonder what the prosecutor and judge would have done had this moron’s shooter been an “Only One.”

A New York City parking garage attendant was hit with an attempted murder charge after confronting an armed thief and wrestling the gun away before opening fire on the suspect. Moussa Diarra, 57, is also charged with assault and criminal possession of a weapon in connection with the incident that occurred at around 5:30 a.m. Saturday morning. [More]
This is what the prohibitionists would have us all reduced to.
With “legally-recognized” criminal possession exceptions, of course.
Funny, how often the racist inequities of that turn up.
UPDATE
DA Alvin Bragg will not prosecute NYC garage worker who shot armed thief [More]
Yeah, now that there are eyes on this and he fears it may affect public sympathies for him in his quest to make a national name for himself in the political persecution of Orange Man.

Well, by talking to the police he’s effectively sabotaged his own defense that fists are deadly weapons, and that, combined with sudden and unfamiliar incident stress and fear, triggered his response — just like can happen with professionally trained Only Ones.
