Dept. Of Righteous Shootings

From, of all places, Southern California:

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office said a home intruder armed with a shotgun died Friday night after being shot during an exchange of gunfire with a San Jacinto, California, homeowner.

Here’s the interesting part:

During the confrontation, the suspect fired multiple rounds at the homeowner. The homeowner returned fire, striking the suspect.  The homeowner was not wounded in the shootout but the alleged intruder was pronounced dead at the scene.

Well, so much for that “shotgun is better than a handgun” trope.  (I’m assuming that Our Hero was using a handgun because as usual, the press report is sadly lacking in important details.)  If my assumption is correct, then it drives home what I’ve been saying for years:  aimed, accurate fire beats spray ‘n pray, nine times out of ten.

Which reminds me:  it’s been weeks since I practiced with my bedside gun, so it’s time I remedied that situation.

So if you’ll excuse me…

And yet another asshole tries to break into a home, and discovers that it’s not a good thing to do in Texas:

A Hopkins County, Texas, homeowner spotted a would-be intruder via a Ring camera Tuesday and shot him as the suspect was allegedly reaching into the house via a broken window in the door.  The homeowner watched the man, Buck Clary, via the Ring camera.  The Sheriff indicated the camera video allegedly showed Clary hitting the front door “and screaming.”

Clary then broke a glass in the door and reached inside the house, which is when the homeowner shot through the door.

And now the good news:

Clary was struck and wounded.  Hopkins County EMT transported the wounded man to a hospital, where he died.

Okay, that’s all well and good.

But I think we should demand more informative stuff other than the “goblin killed by homeowner while trying to break in” storyline.

I’m looking for answers to fairly simple questions such as “What kind of gun did Our Hero use?”  If a 12ga shotgun, then all’s well and good because we all know what it’s capable of.

But what if he used a handgun?  Then we need to know what caliber bullet went through the door and did its deadly job thereafter?  And following on from that, “What kind of door (hollow, solid etc.)?” because that also would also help us decide what kind of doorbuster guns ‘n ammo we need if faced with such a scenario.

The damn Press needs to get its shit together, if you ask me.

There will be a followup post to this one, on a similar topic.  Watch this space.

Once again, an alleged intruder allegedly tried to break into an alleged homeowner’s alleged home, and allegedly having been told to stop breaking in, allegedly continued to try to effect an alleged entrance, whereupon said alleged homeowner allegedly used an alleged firearm to end the alleged threat.  The alleged shootee was then allegedly struck “at least once” with alleged bullet(s), and allegedly assumed room temperature soon thereafter.

The police alleged that “the [alleged] homeowner’s statement matched up with the evidence they found.”

Okay, ignoring all the legal caveats, a scumbag goblin was wasted by a Righteous Shooting, for which the following action should be taken:

Sent to me once more by Reader Brad_In_IL, news of this happy event:

A licensed concealed carry holder shot and killed a man who broke into his home and charged at him early Monday.

The 33-year-old concealed carry license holder called 911 at 1:24 a.m. and told dispatchers he had shot an intruder inside his home in the 2200 block of East 103rd Street and had already begun performing CPR on the man, who had suffered a gunshot wound to the chest.

Good news:

Officers arrived and took over lifesaving measures, but the intruder, who remained a “John Doe” as of Monday evening, was pronounced dead at 1:43 a.m.

Even better news:

[Our Hero’s] home is across the street from the South Chicago (4th) District station.

Look, I know that there are few PhD candidates among the Violent Burglary Set, but even so… dude?

Anyway, a one-shot kill:

…and some applause, please:

Finally, according to the report:

Detectives are investigating the shooting.

Even in Chicago, I bet it’s going to set a record for “fastest investigation and clearing, ever.”

So this “teenager” decides to do a little amateur income redistribution, choosing some guy at random and then pulling a gun on the intended victim.

Whereupon said intended victim pulls his own gun and pops a quickie into the teenager’s chest, sending him towards an early grave.

This used to be an uncommon occurrence in Chicago, until the Supremes dragged the city (and its surrounding state) kicking and screaming into compliance with the Second Amendment.  Now it’s becoming a fairly common experience to find a choirboy with a ventilated corpse, with a righteous citizen standing over him with a smoking gun.  ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪♫ ♪ ♫ ♪

However:  let’s just hope that the Chicago PD and the Soros-backed filth in the DA’s office decide not to go after Our Hero for doing the Right Thing.  Can’t say they won’t, though, because Chicago.

Sorry to end this happy news on a bummer note, but there it is.

Soros delenda est.
