On May 29, three black males walked up to three white males moving into an apartment and allegedly demanded money at gunpoint. One of the three residents pulled a gun and opened fire, killing one on the alleged robbers, critically wounding a second, and injuring the third.
The incident occurred around 11 pm in Aurora, Colorado.
According to CBS Denver, “three white males in their 20s were moving into an apartment building when they were approached by three black males between the ages of 16-20 in the foyer of the apartment building.” The three black males allegedly “demanded money at gunpoint.”
Aurora Police Chief Nick Metz says that two of the three would-be victims began handing money over to the suspects when the third pulled his own gun and began shooting.
The citizen who defended himself and his two companions was questioned by police then released. Arapahoe County District Attorney George Brauchler commented: “I don’t think we would call this necessarily a make-my-day issue. This is a straight up regular common sense statutorily codified self defense.”

What makes a 103 pound woman the equal of a 220 pound thug-— A 357 COLT KING COBRA.
You damn right kiddo.
Good point. He should have used a Desert Eagle or S&W500. They're a little weak on concealability, but top notch in stopping power.
The real problem though is paramedic response times. There should be a "Code thug" dispatch that means "grab coffee and donuts on your way to this call" or, more diplomatically "thugs down and bleeding, approach slowly and with caution as if there might be more armed thugs on site".
I was only half kidding. Besides, the DA said "This is a straight up regular common sense statutorily codified self defense.”
Correct. Three (3) down ...
Didn’t they know black lives matter?
“If you think about it, three blacks males confronting three whites males is odd..”
Why? Blacks know that other Blacks “don’t got no money!”
“Shooting a perp after he has scattered and is no longer a threat is really way good way to get a ticket to prison. “
They were all still in the foyer of the apartment building! But I will just bet you that they other two MF’s were pi$$ing themselves trying to find their way out! Following them outside would have been another story, but my guess is that with each with a “hole,” they weren’t going anywhere very fast.
Only once was in Texas. It ended badly - for the mugger. (Inverted elbow.)
Yep! While I may practice with .38’s in it . . . I carry it with .357’s. :) Well that was before the boating accident. :)
Like Gene Hackman in Unforgiven says: “it ain’t easy to shoot a man, when they are shooting back”
