They must have thought they were in New Jersey.
Sounds like the occupants went to a gunfight with a squirt gun.
As Meatloaf said, “Two out of three aint bad.”
Because Texas... that’s why
The only way this story could have been better was if he killed all three. Nice shooting!
Let me guess, were these three thugs all from the ‘Dindu’ tribe?
” ..practices his skills with his AR-15, the weapon he usually has by his side when sitting on his porch late at night.”
Sounds like he chummed the waters then unloaded on the gators when they came in for a snack.
pistols against an AR-15, if the range is the length of an average lawn, the guy with the rifle has a big advantage.
I thought it was a video of the actual event.
Nevertheless, GOOD SHOOTING!!!!!
Three less thugs to deal with.
Not that I regret that the homeowner was justified, but there has to be more to this story.
>>pistols against an AR-15, if the range is the length of an average lawn, the guy with the rifle has a big advantage.
Not to mention the ‘thugs’ were probably ducking their heads and shooting out the window while holding the pistols 90 degree angel from the ground ‘gangsta-style’
DAmn, I love a happy ending.

Had the same thought - reminds me of the Eastwood film ‘Gran Torino’’
OK ... Spraying the house with 40 rounds and NOT HITTING YOUR TARGET is not an awesome display of anything ...
Returning fire, and hitting all three bad guys ...
THAT'S awesome firepower.
HA!!
Don’t MESS with Texans!!
Who says AR15s have no legitimate purpose in private hands? Such people lack any imagination.
Self-defense.
Good guy knows how to use cover, avoids getting hit by assailants’ 40+ inaccurately delivered rounds.
Good guy uses his AR15 and training to return accurate and effective fire, taking out the moving vehicle, killing two of its occupants and sending a third to the hospital where he’s undergoing surgery.
The third is in critical struggling for his life.....better than 2 out of 3 I would say.
Sounds like Larry and Curly ain’t no mo’.
