Take their assault weapons!
The way people are arming themselves these days I won’t be surprised to see more of these stories.
This is the worst type of shooting. None of the bad guys where hit, and from the sound of it, I wouldn’t be surprised if neighbors find bullets in their houses.
Have they posted bond yet?
From a comment:
“It wasn’t that long ago in American history (100 or so years) when everyone had to arm themselves when walking around out West to protect themselves. If they can’t figure out how to control the crime issue, we might be entering a turnaround time period where we have to live in those times again.”
Maybe he’s right.
Good on ‘em...
Better on ‘em if they had hit the perps...
Always remember: center mass, good sight picture, control your breathing, and squeeze through the trigger. Repeat as required.
And, practice, practice, practice.
I wonder what kind of car it is that it’s worth coming back a second time to try to steal it. Also, what went “wrong” the first time.
Any dead neighbors or was their own car the only thing wounded?
There a cheap and effective way to prevent car theft and you don’t have to worry about line of fire.
I love their high-tech security alarm. We used a string with a cowbell.
The Police could probably find the perps by following the trails of urine they left behind them.
If they aren’t gang members, then Obama’s government will have those weapons confiscated.
They scared them off faster than a mountain lion after he smells a good phart. A good phart is tear gas to mountain lions. Runny nose, watery eyes and tongue hanging out while running away fast.
Sounds like they shot their car up so badly that it can’t run. Hence the reason why the perps ran away instead of driving away. I guess that’ll teach those perps to try and steal your car, shoot your car up!!!
Is this covered by insurance??? Inquiring minds want to know.
“When police arrived they found shell casings littering the driveway and front yard, and the couple’s car riddled with bullet holes.
There was no blood at the scene so police don’t think any of the thieves were hit.”
Kind of a pyrrhic victory there.
Here’s what really happened; the boozed up couple had been drinking all evening and had run out of liquor so the guy jumps in the car and starts out of the driveway only to realize he was out of gas. When he stumbles out the car, he snags the trashcan lid with his shirttail and lurches into the clothesline.
His old lady, grabs the AK-47 they kept beside the fireplace because they spent their poker money on malt liquor and schnapps, staggered out the front door and let fly with about two magazines into the trunk of their soon-to-be-repossessed car.
The husband, having finally freed himself from the backyard tangle, fell to one knee and scraped it.
In a fit of anger, he emptied the pistol at the ground as the bullets bounced back up and left streaks of grazed paint down what was left of the sorry-old sedan.
Hearing the sirens, they threw some empty cans out of the trash container and cooked up the tale that the news just swallowed whole.
That’s my take.
Too bad they shot up their own car. I wonder if insurance will pay for it?
I don’t care if you are a bad shot...but how the hell do you miss a bunch of men, half way in a car, inside of a garage, using an AK, when you obviously shot enough times to riddle the car with bullet holes???
