Someone is on your property and shootin’ at you they should expect no less. The yahoo got exactly what he deserved.

He was taken to an area hospital and died shortly after arrival...

I hope he enjoyed the ride. F*** him.

‘The case will likely be referred to a grand jury, police said.’

That’s bizarre. Unless the victim has some gang background or something I dunno why they’d do that.

Anybody who takes up armed robbery right now definitely didn’t get the memo about Obama getting elected. Right now, and for at least the next few years, assume that *everybody* is armed.

In some parts of the country, robbers can expect the same treatment as the Dalton gang in Coffeyville, Kansas.

Another happy ending.

What I don’t get is that when we read these stories with a happy ending, the good guy always had a permit. I’ll admit I don’t have one, as they are expensive to procure and retain, although I won’t admit to violating any laws. In that situation, however, the good guy wouldn’t have been in violation of Texas law even if he didn’t have a permit, so I can’t really see why that would be relevant. I don’t have a problem with his license, I’m glad he has one, but it isn’t an issue here. I just wonder if the media is trying to impress upon us that we should never be prepared to defend our property, our lives, or those of others without a license.

Flores and the man apparently ran down the street firing at each other several times, according to police.

Although I am a unreserved defender of the Second Amendment I will say that the son was very irresponsible to have chased the burglar down a residential street firing his weapon at the fleeing burglar.

This kind of behavior does responsible gun owners no favors.

This man could have easily killed innocent bystanders, damaged cars or homes.

He was completely within his rights to defend his mother’s home and his own life but once the the burglar had fled his mother’s property he should have holstered his gun and called the police.

He also could have given chase but when the kid started shooting on the run the responsible thing to do was to stop the chase because other people were also being put in danger.
