TX: Clerk fights back, disarms and Fatally Shoots Robber
Gun Watch ^ | 17 July, 2015 | Dean Weingarten

Posted on 07/20/2015 7:55:49 AM PDT by marktwain



A liquor store clerk was attacked by a robbery suspect with a gun.  The victim fought back.  The fight ended up outside the store, where the clerk was able to get control of the gun and shoot the robber.  The suspect later died.

This is the third robber who was shot and killed in Houston in the past few days.  Two others were shot and killed at a Super K by Diem Tu, as they pistol whipped his brother in law, Brian.

It’s always about the shooter and use of a gun, not about the robber who was attempting a criminal act, whether it be theft, or worse, killing the owner, clerk or whomever.

That's because this is Dean Weingarten's *GUN WATCH*

He keeps an eye on positive defensive uses of firearms. So does the NRA's "Armed Citizen" column in the Rifleman and Hunter.

Serves a useful purpose.

Thankfully the criminal’s career is ended.We will never know how many other people would have suffered if he would have escaped.

Good. At least they got it right about who was the victim.

Do enough of these, and perhaps those wishing harm might get a message.

BTW, Houston is home to the largest # of Katrina refugees, has the most diverse population of any Metro, and huge numbers of illegals.

And Obama is trying to get this installed into a neighborhood near you for ‘diversity’.

Get the picture?

Why can’t Sheila Jackson Goober do something about the plague of crime in her chosen city? Could it be that her surname, Lee, obviously an homage to the great leader of the Army of Northern Virginia, is causing it, much like the Confederate flag?

She should be ashamed.

Her Highness QUEEN Sheila Jackson Lee is incapable of shame.

That emotion is for peasants like you & I.
