"Otherwise, the Marines would have had to kill them with their bare hands and that would've been much more painful."

Yes,but WAY more fun....

Where is the Black Panthers reward poster for the capture of the Marines?

They look like they could be Obama’s sons.

The Marine resident and Skinner were struggling on the floor. “Skinner said, ‘You are going to die now’ and squeezed the trigger of the shotgun repeatedly,” Lee said. “The gun did not fire. Apparently, Skinner did not realize that while the Marine resident kept the shotgun loaded, he did not keep it ‘pumped’ and chambered.” The Marine resident was able wrestle the shotgun from Skinner’s grip. Skinner came at the Marine resident, who was on the floor, and the Marine resident shot Skinner twice in the torso.

What a blessing they were killed - these two could have gone on for years making life a horror for so many. I doubt their families will miss them after a month or two...

Did the article mention if either burglar was wearing a hoodie?

No But I would lay odds that they were only looking for bags of Skittles.

another example of good gun control. :-D

According to the link you provided, the two dead guys had 9 kids between the two of them—one had 5 and the other had 4. Lowlifes.

Marines are very efficient!

Anyone who hasn't read the whole article really should do so. The US Marines had a hell of a fight on their hands and a lot of luck going for them. One of the perps took a shotgun slug in the a$$ which exited his abdomen and kept going till taken down with a wine bottle. Bravo Zulu Marines!

The Marine resident was able to kick Skinner and free the shotgun from Skinner's grip. Skinner came at the Marine resident who was on the floor and the Marine resident two times.

That there is one hell of a paragraph. Another high school dropout wrote this article.

So, there's a Marine resident and the Marine resident who was on the floor. I guess the "Marine resident two times" either re-upped or he lived in the house two times. Was he on the floor, too? And then there's the "one civilian of 107" mentioned earlier.

Correct and according to their obituaries, it looks like there are several different mothers as the children either have different last names and/or live in different areas.

The title almost tells the whole story. The only thing missing is a Darwin Award assessment.

Apparently, Skinner did not realize that while the Marine resident kept the shotgun loaded, he did not keep it ‘pumped’ and chambered.”

Surprise, Surprise, Surprise.

See post 9 for the cultural reference.

I think Maurice and Diego f***ed with the wrong Marines!

“SIR, the private’s weapon’s name is Charlene, SIR!!”

Makes me kinda feel bad for these guys. What are the odds of breaking into a place and having a couple of Marines come home.

[Wicket]

I kinda like it when a story turns out well.

...Skinner did not realize that while the Marine resident kept the shotgun loaded, he did not keep it ‘pumped’ and chambered.” Surprise, Surprise, Surprise.

If our culture has to produce 'violent', nice it's a among the stupid...
