An attempted robbery of a Tennessee home Wednesday night turned deadly when the homeowner fatally shot one of the alleged robbers, who was a convicted felon.

Excellent. Too bad the other guy got away.

But they can all be rehabed!!

(obvious sarcasm)

This is why you keep your carry firearm on you, and not in a safe. Also, maintain your situational awareness when something doesn’t look right (open door).

I love stories with happy endings. (Remember the neighbors folks. 12ga #3 buckshot, 1200fps, maximum effect, minimum collateral damage.) Hope they find the would be robbers helper. Wonder what the homeowner used to keep himself safe.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

The deceased looks to be a fine, upstanding young gentleman.

I hope Tennessee has Felony Murder they can charge the guy who got away with. That’s always great. I blast a hole in your buddy and YOU go to jail for his murder!

From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

Terry Adams now has some red roses on his chest to augment the ink artwork on his neck.

The now-deceased robber…

What the??? That should be "alleged robber," Fox. You are slipping. Somebody didn't consult the style guide.

Well he is.....Now.

“Police said Adams is a suspect in that case.”

My old man always said to not be a criminal - it will follow you the rest of your life. I guess in Tennessee that they take it even further!

[Keyhopper]

I don't know about upstanding. He kinda looks laid out to me😄

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Well, ya gotta admit...he’s pretty “gentle” at this point.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Yep. White trash.

[Secret Agent Man]

I feel bad the homeowner will be under scrutiny by the DA and open to possible lawsuits by surviving thug relatives trying to cash in on thugs death. I would hire the best atorney and countersue them out of existence.

[Luke21]

The left wants the homeowner disarmed and dead. They always root for the bad guys.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

WOW! I’ve got kin in the Hermetage-Old Hickory area!

[Slyfox]

What is the deal with the neck tattoos? Can’t hide em when ya work anywhere.

[Do_Tar]

Don't you mean you HAD kin in the area.
