If they are found......................

If they are found........... they should be unfound!

"I suppose all those injured by IEDs just needed a concealed handgun as well."

You are a little short in the logic department.

A handgun would have saved the guy in the wheelchair from being beaten by three young punks, but his two legs would not. Why in the world you think that a handgun could keep someone from being injured by an IED?

More feral humanoids at work.

Sometimes, there is no logic.
Sometimes, shit just happens.

Fact is, he didn't have a gun.

It coulda have gotten him killed.
It shouldn'ta happened.
And I wouldn'ta called him a wimp.

But that's just illogical me.
Merry Christmas.

And Merry Christmas to you and perhaps you now have an idea of what Christmas gift might be most logical for your loved one.

Yes, hanging Chrismas lights with an 8 year old boy and a concealed gun in his pocket is quite logical. LMAO! Stopping four idiots from drag racing in front of his house with nothing but his bare hands might not be logical but... he's a crazy Marine, not necessarily chock full of logic as is his sister. He found the four young men rather quickly and handled the situation. Quite well I might add.

But hey, feel 'free' to call me illogical...feel 'free' to beat down an amputee widowed veteran in a wheelchair who was already mugged once, a wimp.

bump

[joesnuffy]

He needs to get over to DAV and they will help him get to a VA Medical Center

If he has a war wound that was aggravated he should be eligable for a bump in his disability rating and a wheelchair, along with further help for his long term care..

I hope he gets some help with this asap

Amazing that they admitted the criminals were black.

I watched this story unfold from our local Ohio news station. A local business and many others not only got a new wheelchair for this "victim" but locals brought him food and supplies as well. Shame on him for taking advantage of kind people, and God bless those who gave from their hearts. I dont think the point of the story should be on people who give...but on the ones who take advantage of them. Bless those who take the time to do for others in times of need. :)
