“When they tried to force John Lovell into the bathroom, he pulled out a gun and shot both men”

Absolutely great stuff. Liberals and criminals, “It’s just not as fun when they shoot back!”

“He should not have taken the law in his hands,” said Rosa Jones, Gadson’s grandmother.”

These people honestly believe that the victim has no right to fight back.

I believe that criminals, like communists, are on their best behavior when they are afraid.

Well, they would say that, wouldn’t they? They raised a violent predatory criminal, so why is ANYTHING they say even worth reporting? Why do the MSM so eagerly serve as a transmission belt for such nonsense?

I’ll take a wild guess and assume that the criminals feel the same way.

We had a similar case where people were herded into a walk-in refrigerator. They were found the next day executed. The robbers were totally at fault for creating this situation.

Gadson’s grandparents told Local 10 on Thursday that Lovell was wrong for pulling the trigger.

“He should not have taken the law in his hands,” said Rosa Jones, Gadson’s grandmother.]

So two armed punks are trying to force a 71 yo into the bathroom and the victim is accused of taking the law in his hands. Granny oughta be locked up for her own welfare and of those around her.

It’s about the feeling of having rights. Liberals now believe that they have a right to steal without recourse. So, when an ex marine goes old school on them it’s quite a shocker.
