Title: Trajedy Strikes
Post by: 1Cane on January 08, 2023, 02:56:45 PM
In Houston a young future Bank Robber was struck down by a Taqueria customer. After taking everyone's wallet and cash, he was bruteily shot nine times and died on the scene. The customers retreived their good's and left. The police are seeking the shooter to see if he needs more ammo! :banana: :banana: :banana:

I saw the video the other day on twitter. I really liked the music playing at the restaurant - and a bell tolled twice just after the robber received his last bullet.
I don't like that someone had to die, but screw that amazinhunk. That's what you get. that's what you deserve.

I'm thinking your education was the bigger tragedy.

Robber had an airsoft M&P replica pistol, according to police. Customer who shot him appears to have a compact semi-auto 9mm. The customer was under no legal obligation to remain at the site of the shooting. Police want to ask him questions, undoubtedly as to whether or not he felt in danger of death or great bodily harm for himself or others. His attorney will surely advise him on what to say to police. Some have said that he shot the felon too many times. Down here in Brevard County, Florida, our Sheriff would say that "dead isn't dead enough for felons" like him. A trained LEO might catch some heat for a few extra shots, but not a civilian. Just before he passed the armed customer, the robber pointed the gun at him and the man sitting with him. That's well within the boundaries of being in reasonable fear of death or serious bodily harm. As long as the bad guy is moving, has the gun or within reach of the gun, one must assume he is not out of the fight yet.
I can almost hear the robber's family... "My boy dindu nuffin' to shoot him for. He's a good boy". That culture of violence is also a culture of denial.
Taking a life, even a despicable life, is no small thing. This will surely haunt the shooter and other customers who were victimized.

I think all of the shots could be justified until the last one. Execution is a no-no, whether he was going to survive or not.

Sadly as criminals are not prosecuted properly this will happen with increased frequency as the law abiding segment of this so called society has had enough

There's ZERO upside to talking to the popo. However, they got good video of the old man and his truck, their woke DA will charge him

30 YO Eric Eugene Washington had a long wrap sheet which included a previous murder of store clerk that was pleaded down to aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon in 2015, was released in 2021 and was out on bond for assaulting his girlfriend in December 2022. Don't let the Texas we execute'em down here noise fool you, we catch and release these scumbags as fast as any other state.
BTW the shooter/"old man" is 46, that's the oldest 46 yo I've ever seen. No charges, all civilian shootings go to a grand jury here and he will be no billed.

Murders released in 6 years...
Touring funeral services with thug occupied gold caskets with coverage greater than the pope and other world leaders...
Does anyone wonder why it's becoming the wild wild west?

Had the criminal been in Minnesota where they cherish criminals, he would be alive and feeding off victims still today.
I would love to see Houston ship all their criminals up there.

When you rob people at gunpoint, fake gun or not, you deserve whatever response you get. Punishing the shooter will be a sore travesty against justice.

Hopefully the outcome from this is one that draws a clear line in the sand for stupid criminals.

In Canada it is illegal to carry any weapon whatsoever for the purpose of self-defense. That includes pepper spray.

Canada has become pretty much total control society. Everything what is not allowed by law, is forbidden.
Something similar has become of my country of origin, Finland, in bit lesser degree. There I had concealed carry permit, as well as in Belgium. In my nowadays residence Bulgaria I have just pepper spray, which are free to buy and use for all adult persons but firearm permit for foreigner is hard to obtain.

I have been following the taquirria shooting pretty closely. I am aware Houston has a liberal and not overly gun friendly DA. Keep in mind the only side providing evidence and accusations are the DA at the Grand Jury. Defense is not present.
I think there will be charges and a trial. TX is not as hard core as folks like to post about. IMO the guy was perfectly justified with the first 4 shots. An argument "could" be made for the next 4, but IMO it is on shaky ground as the robbers gun seems to move away from the body when he hits the ground. There is no further movement from the robber either. The 9th shot, fired after he picked up the gun then dumped a head shot is pretty much inexcusable. No way could he argue a threat existed after removing the robber's gun and the robber being non moving. At that point there was zero exigency.
Personally, I hope he doesn't get tried but I think he will end up serving time.
