General Sessions Court Judge Bob Moon on Wednesday told a female home invasion victim she needs to buy a gun to protect herself.
"There should be a law that law abiding citizens with no felony convictions should own a gun," the judge said while setting bond for Colton Dobbins.
Judge Moon told Danielle Walker, "I know many fine police officers. But we can't depend on the police to protect us any more."
He said Chattanooga is the 57th most dangerous city in the country, and to many criminals "the value of human life means nothing to them."
The judge said, "With 7,000 foreclosures every day and 6,000 kids dropping out of school" that the crime situation is going to get much worse.
He told the 18-year-old Dobbins he is "lucky to be alive" after barging into the home of Ms. Walker.
Judge Moon said, "If it had been my house you came in on, you would have wound up at Coulter Funeral Home."
Dobbins was charged with forcing his way into Ms. Walker's home where she and her nine-year-old son live. Ms. Walker said Dobbins knocked her to the floor, then two other men entered her home.
Ms. Walker said, "I was afraid for my son."

I swear it’s there, along with some nonsense about the President having to be a natural born citizen. Isn’t that a hoot?

“Coulter Funeral Home”, eh? Is it operated by one of Ann’s relatives?;))

Somehow I don’t think we’ll be seeing any attacks on this guy from our straight-arrow MSM “journalists.” Too many viewers/readers would agree with him.

I’m only about 45 miles from Chattanooga and never go there unless I have no other choice.
I guess the judges in Chattanooga are getting tired of the revolving door criminals are passing through. I’m really surprised the lady didn’t have a gun. Most people here do.

“The judge said, “With 7,000 foreclosures every day and 6,000 kids dropping out of school” that the crime situation is going to get much worse.”
Not to mention out of work illegals.

The 2nd amendment is a “God given right” so why do so many Americans run down to their local government and pay them for a permit (permission) to carry a firearm?
Well trained are we not?
