"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!

...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!

Another victim of the cigarette tax - smoking really does kill.

And where are the cops?
Donuts are up at Dunkin Donuts?

Someone tried to rob the Molly Pitcher Mini-Mart?

Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
