If only he had a gun... - GoFuckYourself.com

Actually, the old man did have a gun this morning when three mexicans broke into his home.

He managed to kill one of them with his handgun. But maybe if he had an AR15 he could have got all three.

LAS VEGAS (KSNV MyNews3) ? A man suspected in a home burglary attempt is dead and another is in custody after an incident this morning near West Sahara Avenue and South Jones Boulevard.

A news release from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says its Dispatch Center received a call around 7:45 a.m. from the occupant of a home in the 2300 block of Westwind Road indicating intruders were attempting to forcibly gain entry into his house.

The resident, a 72-year-old male who had been the victim of a recent burglary, retreated into his bedroom and retrieved a handgun. As the suspects entered his bedroom the victim fired at least one round from the handgun, causing suspects to flee.

Arriving officers encountered one suspect attempting to flee the area in a vehicle. This suspects? vehicle collided with an arriving officers? patrol car, and the suspect, a Latin male, was taken into custody after a short foot pursuit.

A second suspect, also tentatively identified as a Latin male, was last seen fleeing on foot eastbound into the surrounding residential neighborhood and remains outstanding.

Officers searching the backyard of the victim?s residence found a third individual, tentatively identified as a Latin male, deceased from an apparent gunshot would. A handgun was also recovered from the backyard.

The investigation into this incident remains ongoing, and at this time charges against the homeowner are not anticipated.

Gun nuts seem to think that you need a handgun in this case.

The house across the street from me was broken into a few years ago. All that was required to chase them off was a rather skinnny run of a sixteen year old boy in his boxer shorts. Criminals are criminals because they are cowards and lazy, and nine times out of then they'll bolt the moment they are confronted by anyone...

On one hand, this older man became judge, jury, and executioner. I'm guessing if had just fired a shot in their direction they would have fled. On the other hand, break into someone's house and you get what you deserve including being shot dead.

Nukes are arms, so I don't understand why each of us are not allowed to have personal nukes. It's a right that is expressly granted under the second amendment.

three dudes had a gun apparently.. or the police find a random one in the backyard

StickyGreen · 02-04-2013, 05:34 PM

The "nukes" argument is so fucking retarded... give it up already... firearms are here to stay regardless of how much you bitch and moan...

Three men, at least one armed, break into the home of a man in his 70's who defends himself and some find this offensive. Congrats to those of you that would have put yourself at their mercy. Wow.

Obviously the old man was acting as a member of a well regulated militia. Good on him.

Seriously though, I'm glad he and his were unhurt. Sounds like the would-be robbers dropped their handgun in his garden as they were running.

Just because he wasn't part of a militia ensuring the security of the free state doesn't mean he isn't also allowed to bear arms himself. It's called freedom, and it's not complete anarchy because we have things called laws.

If you randomly murder someone on the street with your weapon you will face serious consequences, but if you murder someone who breaks into your home you will likely face minor consequences.

Weird, he didn't "NEED" that gun according to some people. What the hell!?

Yea, according to Rochard all he needed was a "skinnny run of a sixteen year old boy in his boxer shorts" ??.

If he had one of these I bet it would have been a different story. Everyone should have a nuclear missile in their backyard...because after all, they have the rights to arm themselves.

I'm cool with some one blowing away someone they caught in their house. I honestly am. It's scary to even think that one person has suddenly become judge, jury, and executioner, but at a certain point a line is crossed and self defense becomes a last resort. That line is crossed the moment someone breaks into a house.

At the same time, this man is going to face a massive legal battle that will most likely bankrupt him. He'll be sued by someone's wife or mother for "wrongful death" (which is pathetic really), and he'll end up in court.

But what I said about my sixteen year old neighbor is true. Criminals are more scared than the average public is. And when confronted with such a situation a criminal knows that breaking in and entering is one thing, but kidnapping is completely different thing.

best security for your home is a large german shepherd...and a shot gun.

the cocking sound from a shotgun should be enough to run anyone off...and if you miss...well the dog will be on them by then.
