Resident fights off three home invaders, KRQE, Albuquerque, N.M. 08/20/14
A man was asleep at home in Albuquerque, N.M. when a trio of armed robbers attempted to gain entry
to the residence by claiming that they were police. The criminals ultimately broke down the door and
got inside the home. The resident responded by retrieving a gun and firing at the home invaders,
striking and killing one, and wounding another. The surviving intruders fled the home, but were
later captured by police. The surviving home invaders have been charged with the murder of their
accomplice. Albequerque Police Department Public Information Officer Tanner Tixier shared some
advice for would be intruders with local media outlet KRQE, stating, "“What people need to
understand is if you join your buddy to go commit a felony and your buddy dies you can be the one
who gets charged with murder."
Sounds like they got what they deserved, administered by someone who
was sufficiently trained to undertake his own defense.
Problem is, a large percentage of guns are in the hands of people who
aren't well trained, don't store or handle weapons properly and end up
creating more danger than they're capable of solving.
I want guns in the hands of people who can handle them properly. The
gun industry and the NRA don't give a **** who has 'em. In fact,
their business case is built on the fear that the "wrong people"
(young, colored folk) have 'em. Turns out the "wrong people" are the
idiots who never take responsibility for the deadly force they own.
Yet you swing blindly in the night attacking everyone.
Huh? I'm attacking those who are too stupid to take responsibility
and those who are too calloused to make laws that will help stupid
people take their responsibility seriously.
How about some laws for the hundreds and hundreds who do the shootings on purpose?
