Two teenage criminals were in a car, cruising for trouble. They found it. The armed teens attempted to rob the man.

Two armed men vs one man. To me, that sounds like he could have reasonably been in fear for his life and/or grave injury. A prosecutor would have a long uphill battle convincing me this was not justified.

...in those neighborhoods, there’s easy access to firearms… and there are extraordinary rates of homicide.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner. It's called crime, violent crime. That is exactly why the rest of us non criminals need to be armed and prepared to defend ourselves.

Chief Flynn completely ignores the rest of Wisconsin, with *much* “easier access to firearms” and extraordinary low rates of homicide.

Remove the Milwaukee homicides, and Wisconsin has a lower homicide rate than Switzerland.

Chief Flynn has reduced the emphasis on detection, and reduced overtime for detectives, and the homicide clearance rate has gone from 93% in 2008 to 61% in 2015.

Funny how that works...
