Mother of armed robber shot dead by man defending his children: ‘Why did he shoot him five times?’

After an armed man entered a Popeye’s restaurant in San Antonio last month and reportedly pointed a gun at a customer’s children, that customer — a licensed concealed carrier — shot the gunman dead.

But now the mother of the deceased 19-year-old gunman is asking why the father who fatally shot her son chose to fire more than once.

Why was your son robbing people and threatening to kill them?

This specimen was not an animal in that sense and hopefully did suffer.

Soon after Herrera, who didn’t have a job, started bringing home money . . . “If you have money from whatever you’re doing, you can take that money and find a place to live,” Ruiz told the station she told her son.

She knew he had chosen a high-risk occupation. I'm more than okay with five shots, since that's what it took to do the job.

‘Why did he shoot him five times?’

In part, madam, because you were a rotten parent.

During the event:

1. What caliber was the firearm used to stop the threat?
2. At what point was the threat, or the potential of continued threat neutralized?

“From the headline it sounded as if the mother was shot dead.”

Probably a helicopter mom and was there supervising her baby rattlesnake.

Why did you keep having kids until that one?

I have a better question, you stupid bitch: Why did you raise your foul brat to be an armed robber?

Exactly correct. This victimization of these thugs and criminals has to stop!

— Always shoot to kill.
— Dead men sometimes shoot back.
— Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Your life isn’t.
— Make sure they’re dead, it doesn’t matter how many times you have to reload.
— It’s better to go into court against a corpse than a cripple.

This is the kind of good shoot that pisses the BM crowd off but not when an innocent Australian woman is murdered by a schwarze cop.

The ‘old lady’ heard about the custom of charging the survivors for the bullets used to bring the person to room temperature.

She figured if he was dead by the 2nd shot she shouldn’t have to pay for the other 3 rounds.

She should also get the cleaning bill for the people in the shop that ‘relieved themselves’ when the citizen was obliged to off her feral animal.

Yes.

Removing the threat to his children was a legitimate use of deadly force. Sorry for the mother's loss but she should have done a better job of raising her son. If she had, perhaps he wouldn't have died so tragically?

He wanted to be sure the criminal was goodified.
