Another afternoon, a gunfight broke out on the streets as armed neighbors and armed intruders exchanged fire.

"About 25 rounds were fired," Harris said.

Blood was later found on the street from a wounded intruder.

Not far away, Oakwood Center mall was seriously damaged in a fire caused by vandals.

Can you imagine the outcome without the 2nd Amendment???

Good on these people, and good on the Gov for reversing the orders to disarm them

Several thoughts on this. Every locked house will be opened by force to check the attic. They may flush the toilet but it comes up somewhere. Then there is that water in the tap. Where did that come from.
As for the looters, Where are the fire ants when you need them.

Indeed. That's why I have a 12-gauge shotgun and a medallion of St. Jude in close proximity to one another.

And in the mind of the Leftist, the looters are heroes and those who use their rights to defend themselves are villians.

Won't be long before the Democrats demonize these people while they praise the "angry taxpayers" who raped, murdered and looted.

The NRA had better use this as an example to beat back the gun-grabbers and control freaks.

It seems to me that blacks are very touchy about any mention of crime, and once they started objecting the coverage of the subject diminished. It is a little hard to understand this, as crime affects their communities a lot. I know, historically, the Bull Connor with dogs made them very leary of police, but that does not explain the reticence now.

Imagine if the politicians had brains to USE CITIZENS as an ASSET!

Imagine how different it would be if the public at large KNEW citizens had emergency situation security?

I think it would be WISE to take steps to incorporate armed citizens in an emergency plan.
