The ferals will behave better when people start defending themselves. But then of course, that’s why our social overlords want us disarmed and helpless.

Shot in the leg, went to the hospital, left before police got there. Not suspicious at all.

Michigan Man wasn’t shot.

Attempted Carjacker was shot.

Big difference.

Had to get to the third sentence to learn that it wasn’t an innocent bystander.

Once again. Where are the editors?

Indeed. Damon doesn’t look very contrite, does he? He’ll be back on the streets again soon... and he knows it.

I cannot find out what that stands for. There’s no urban dictionary for it.

Not quite as bad as “Carjacking gone bad”, though pretty close. They always like to add weasel word qualifiers and euphemisms. “Would be” and “attempted” are favorites.

Eastpointe, about 14 miles from Detroit,

Huh? Eastpointe and Detroit are next to each other. The common border is 8 Mile Road.

I think of “botched” as a poor paint job due to error or incompetence, not a failed crime.

When I was a kid, Eastpointe changed their name from East Detroit. They didn’t want to be associated with Detroit.

Guess it didn’t work.

Just shows how racist this country is. I have never read a story of a white guy getting shot during a car jacking. For that matter I can’t even ever remember a story about one even being arrested for it
