Senior Shoots And Kills Mugger Armed With A Knife Found Really A Pen--Too Many Cities Like The Wild West

 

Residents in crime ridden cities are facing the perfect storm
Where deadly assaults followed by suspects being released as the norm
More and more fearful of their safety residents don’t want to leave their homes
To walk on the street, be in their car or enter a public place turned into a shooting zone.
When a resident, especially a senior or a female, knows carrying a gun can make their safety prevail
Survival is the most basic human instinct and when confronted shooting first means a trip to the morgue will not be entailed
Any object in the dark of night or pocket bulge could be a gun
Choice to if packing draw and shoot or be shot in the back trying to run
In Queens a senior was confronted by a mugger in the early morning hours
Demanding his cash and cigarettes and probably looking like he could overpower
Worse to the intended victim he had sharp looking object in his hand
Was it a knife or screwdriver? Could be, so could not take a chance of trying to an attack withstand
As the 32 year presumed mugger advanced the victim pulled out a pistol and shot him in the chest
It’s unclear from the news report that with his “illegal gun” he was or would be subject to arrest
Gun control laws no matter how strict will not prevent the felons from procuring a firearm
And citizens seeing the news of violent crime each day will want to carry to prevent deadly harm
We must have more cops and fewer Soros funded D.A.’s
Who have a great proclivity for not putting violent felons in prison for long stays
Where while there to try to rehabilitate with skills our urban schools failed to provide
So if they are to be released to be able to be employed so the need to commit crimes will subside
