The Irony Is Overwhelming
#1
The Irony Is Overwhelming
First off, this story recounts the tales of two gun nuts who fired their precious guns at "shop-lifters" and were then surprised when they got charged by the cops.

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/12/indiana-...oplifters/

Quote:Indiana vet too scared to carry gun — or leave his house — after felony charge for shooting at shoplifters


But what is truly astounding is the last paragraph where a local cop has the fucking balls to say:

Quote:“That weapon is there to protect yourself or others,” said Sgt. Chris Snyder, a spokesman for Elkhart police. “And somebody that’s running away from you, getting in a car to even go further away from you — does that really pose a risk to you or to anybody else?”

Apparently, only if you are a cop with body armor and back up either present or on the way.  In that case, they blast away until the body stops twitching and then tell anyone in earshot how fucking "scared" they were.
