When the past smothers the present, there is only desperation. When the future absorbs the present, life stands still. In either case a decision must be made because you only live now and you are only what you are now.
the guy was lucky it could have beenn worse if the shotgun had went off but he chose to fight back instead of being a victim
Too bad it wasnt a lethal hit, but it got the job done. Good for the would be victim.
All in all ..................... Good guy 1 Bad guy 0

Best Choices for Self Defense Ammunition
Sometimes the bad guys carry unloaded or toy weapons (thinking it goes better for them if caught, which is questionable). Don't know in this case, but it at least appears the BG was not ready to shoot. Does busting a cap in his a** teach him any lessons? Might not be the ones we want.
Anti-gunners seem to believe that if we just pass enough laws, we can have utopia. Unfortunately, utopia is NOT one of our choices.
It will be interesting if more details come out. This is a well lit parking lot. Did the BG jump out of a car with the shotgun? It would be hard to miss a guy walking around with a SG.I will stay tuned if more details are aired.

College is the street that JJ's pawn the gun shop is on right? But this happened on the other side of I-10 on that street, correct?
This is why I practice practice practice,probably within 5 feet and he hit him in the hip,IMHO he almost missed.I will guarantee that most people that get a permit never visit a range again until they have to requalify if necessary

I'd say that this dirtbag was a slow learner.
He also had two outstanding warrants for burglary and another for a second aggravated robbery.
Officers also discovered the vehicle the robber was driving had been reported stolen.

I agree. I know plenty of those people. And I've shot with some of them--scary! I'm not saying I'm a gunfighter, but I DO practice, and take some form of training at least once a year. Get to the range at least 2-3 imes a month WITH my carry weapon. And I also shoot IDPA (lots of fun).

WoW!!
Confronted with a shottie, I don't know if I would only pull the trigger one time.
Can't say that I wouldn't only take one shot but I'm thinking I'd be scared crapless.
