Zhang held three of the suspects (two ran off) at gunpoint on pool deck. Nerve-wracking stuff for sure, but he was still chill enough to exercise another one of America's most cherished rights -- the right to take a cell phone camera photo at anytime.

And what a picture it is: You can stare right down the length of Zhang's handgun and then look at the three would-be burglars, lying almost face-down on the concrete with their hands out where you can see them.

From the article:

“(Zhang) got a gun so he fired a warning shot and was able to apprehend them until the police showed up.”

I thought it was illegal to fire a warning shot?

One thing in general about Asians is they rarely commit violent crimes or thefts in comparison to other minority groups.

If he had submitted his photos first to a US Media outfit, how many people think this would have grown into a major anti diversity news story..?

for me the lesson here is the US media will respond with an diWORSE-ity story AFTER it becomes a major story *elsewhere*.

Warning shots should be a warning to the next guy.

The problem he has now is that he has disrespected these foreign guests, and they don’t take disrespect lightly.

“Two of the five suspects were able to flee, but neighbors assisted deputies in locating them, officials said.” (Another report noted that the entire neighborhood helped locate the two who got away.)

“Roberto Alonso Salmon, 18; Garret Rogers, 19; Ruben Medivil, 19; Joaquin Leonardo Salmon Garcia, 20; and a 17-year-old boy were all arrested on suspicion of attempted burglary.”

So now, they'll be deported, instead of becoming the dear departed....
