"Asked whether Colaco's shooting has been deemed justifiable self-defense, Dick said the investigation is continuing."
Self defense is always justifiable.

This guy was being terrorized by hoodlums. He needs an armed guard, or sell the store.

Colaco said he has never shot a gun in his life and believes his actions were in self-defense.He owns a gun and has never fired it before? Get some training, ASAP!
To: monkeycard
...burglarized more than half a dozen times since March.
...the establishment was robbed four times in 14 days. In one incident, Colaco held a woman at bay with a gun until police arrived.
The usual quality of the libtard press reporting on anything involving self protection and firearms. Do any of these mental idjits even know the difference between a "burglary" and a "robbery". If so, they certainly don't know how to write a simple, intelligible story about either one.
But I do love the outcome, and hope the owner isn't charged, and does get some range time.

And we can thank the government for setting the price of a carton of cigs at $44.83 each -which makes it SO beneficial to steal them in the first place.
But, I’d be willing to bet that the enemedia will report something about this story like, “Desperate smokers risk lives for their fix,” to put the blame on everything except where it belongs.

He did Good, but he needs to do some Target-Practicing!

Thanks for all of your pings, Dave. “Enemedia”...I’ve seen it before but had forgotten about it. Good term. So many times it is the most accurate description. Thanks for mentioning it.

Additional target practice is always good, that would allow for using a tighter choke in the shotgun.

Smoking, a dying habit.

Indeed! With proper training he might go 3 fer 3 ‘stead of 1 fer 3 like this time.

I want to join those thanking you for the ping
And YEAH, if you own a gun, take it to the range, for crying out loud!
AND my personal opinion is that anybody who names a store "The Molly Pitcher Mini-Mart", is so offending the gods of good taste that he'd better expect bad Karma. Of course, on the Karmic scale, his decision NOT to call it Ye Olde Molly Pitche Mini Marte" is probably why things aren't worse for him.
