Title: Such a "feel good" story........
Post by: Twaddle on April 22, 2019, 03:56:46 PM
http://www.tampabay.com/florida/2019/04/22/a-florida-mans-car-was-stolen-with-his-son-inside-he-chased-the-car-for-five-miles-then-shot-the-thief/

A Florida man’s car was stolen with his son inside. He chased the car for five miles, then shot the thief.

The suspected car thief is in critical condition and will likely face criminal charges if he lives.

A South Florida man whose car was stolen with his 6-year-old son in the back seat chased the car down, then repeatedly shot the car thief, according to published reports.

The Palm Beach Post is among those reporting that Lamar Thurman, 29, stole the 2012 Honda about 2:30 a.m. Saturday. The boy’s father, who is not named in the report, had left the car running with the boy inside while he said goodbye to friends.

Thurman got behind the wheel of the car and drove away. The dad and his friends called 911 and chased the car for about five miles. They eventually caught up to the car in Lantana after Thurman crashed. As the father and his friends tried to free the boy from the car, Thurman was able to start driving the car again and the father fired repeatedly, hitting Thurman multiple times, the Post reports.

Well..all those that follow the law I should say.
Speaking of firearms---Chuck Norris is the new face of Glock. Turns out lots of people aren't too happy with that either.
I just picked up a new Glock 17 last week.

Shooting  a fleeing  robber is illegal   , I hope the father goes to jail for a long time .

Why would people not be happy with the Chuck Norris thing..?  ???

(While I'm here I must admit that I've spent hours on YouTube watching my 'Murican Brothers shooting the hell out of stuff, almost always started by someone here on GetBig talking about a new purchase, etc.)

It's not everyone angry with Chuck. I saw one short article where they had to use multiple quotes from two SJWs that seemed really upset with him. The rest were guys making "karate doesn't work" and "Chuck Norris is so tough" jokes.

Here we see Lou reconsidering asking Chuck for that $20 photo fee.

Hope the worthless piece of shit croaks.

Too bad the father didn’t/couldn’t sink one point-blank into the shitskin’s forehead.

Liberals hate guns. Liberals hate conservatives. Chuck is a proud conservative.
They get triggered over this stuff.

Nice choice Prudence, I have a Glock 19 and a Glock 43.
(Plus three S&W's, a Taurus, a Kel-Tec, and a small Jennings 25. (Range stuff only).

The guy who stole the car doesn't look too sharp-minded. Shooting w/ your kid in the car is dangerous, shows how desperate the dad was to get him back.
Unlike the clown who let his little girl burn to death in a car last week.

Thanks Dude.... also the highlighted sentence is exactly the sort of thing to send me running to YouTube to see what guys like 'IraqVeteran888 (sp?) and Jerry Miculek (sp?) think of your arsenal 😎

Thanks BB - I have to admit I hadn't realised Norris was so poltically engaged when I first asked the question, I'd just assumed it must be something to do  with his films

and a small Jennings 25
Those are really nice and small.
 I saw a video of a tiny female that hadda be about 110lbs--short itty bitty thing--hold one in her left hand and a full size 1911 in her other hand. She was showing how hard it was for a person her size to conceal it. The video went on for about 3 min--never once could u tell she had the Jennings in her right hand until she revealed it. If anybody knows that video, I'd love to see it again.

I had rifles growing up, but no pistols.
When I moved to NH from Mass in 1989 when we got married, I walked into a store, showed the guy my license,and bought that Jennings for like 30.00.
(He just looked at it (license), sold me the gun, no background checks back then in NH). So things have come a long way,and can get better. (As it relates to selling to crazies).

Anyways, the thing is pretty well made, still shoots fine after 30 years. When Jennings went up for sale, a long time employee bought the place.
Not sure how they are these days. (Jiminez Arms).

30 bucks---damn. Today you can barely get 100 rounds for that price.
I grew up in NYC where owning one is out of the question. I'd never even touched a gun, moved to the wild wild west and went bezerk.
The gun violence here is more than what I thought it would be seeing as everybody has firearms and most people CCW. More guns here than in Texas?? wow.
I don't think I could live in a state that didn't allow it. These filthy animals are killing everybody.
