Trieu Duong was killed Thursday afternoon during a robbery at his Fairfield jewelry store. Edward Morsby III was arrested in Virginia and charged with capital murder Perry Cauthen was arrested in southwest Birmingham and charged with capital murder Trieu Duong and his family arrived in the U.S. on the most American of days. It was the Fourth of July. In 1976. And that made it their adopted nation's bicentennial, and a perfect time to embark on the American Dream.

What a CRIME! Too bad Mr. Doung had no .45.
We need quicker capital punishment here in Alabama. There are simply some terds who don;t deserve to live anymore.
Sick, just sick. I hope they get the chair.
Bet those 2 thugs had no father in their lives and never worked a day in their life.
So much of the B’ham area has become a craphole.
No, but you can bet any “education” they did get went along the lines of hate whitey, hate those who succeed, impregnate as many girls as you can, game the system to squeeze as much as you can out of the taxpayers...
Not “has become”. I’ve been there off and on since I was a wee child. It’s always been a craphole with spots of tidiness.
They look Amish.
It may be getting worse now that we have obama and liberals in “power.”

Gee..... How did I just seem to KNOW what color they would be?
Who's to say he didn't? Arming yourself still means you have to get the first shot. To think otherwise is giving yourself a false sense of security. Poor Mr. Doung was shot in the head the moment he appeared from the back room. His weapon, if he had one, might have been under the counter, out of reach, and useless his this situation. Who knows?
I post this only to re-enforce the fact that owning a weapon isn't enough. You have to have the mindset, the preperation and the tactics to be able to use it effectively. There's nothing to prevent a legal immigrant in Alabama from lawfully owning a handgun. Being a jewelry store owner in a high-crime area, I'd bet he already owned one. He just found himself unable to use it.
I hate that what I posted sounds like anti-gun talking points but the truth is that armed merchants are killed all the time in robberies. Not because they own guns but because they thought simply owning a gun was enough. Our inner-cities are a war zone occupied by predatory sociopaths with borderline retarded IQs who would shoot and kill their own grandmothers for $20. And I hate to say it but every young black male with cornrows and baggy jeans who comes into my store will be profiled as a potential criminal and until the black community cleans their own house, this profiling will remain in place.
absolutely
and I treat wiggahs almost the same way...they are a plague in poor white/mixed Nashville
I should've added, "if I was a store owner" as, fortunately, I am not a shopkeeper in a high crime area.
Very tragic. It underscores the need to be armed at all times.
They aren’t robbers. They’re murderers.
I just read the article. It seems like a bad idea to open a jewelry store or other prime criminal target on “Martin Luther King Dr.”
To survive the war over there then come here and get killed is very sad. At least he knew freedom for 33 years.
