Never bring a shotgun, a .380, and five gangsters to a Marine fight

Quote:
Grabbing the knife from his backpack, Autry managed to kick the shotgun from the man's hands and stabbed the woman in the chest, fatally wounding her. Stephens said. In the melee, Autry also stabbed one of the male suspects. Another suspect attempted to shoot Autry with a .380 pistol, which misfired, Stephens said.

The suspects ran back to the Cadillac and drove to Atlanta Medical Center, where police arrested them.

Re: Never bring a shotgun, a .380, and five gangsters to a Marine fight

Idiot youth always seem to think that larger numbers and more/bigger guns ensure victory. This just shows how hard it is to beat solid training, experience, and determination. The kids clearly had no idea how to use their weapons and certainly didn't seem to be expecting to use them at all...amazing ignorance...I'm more interested in how the kids actually got the weapons in the first place.

I'm pretty sure it's just Chuck Norris playing cops and robbers, he's the ninja cop.

Too bad he didn't grab the shotgun and do away with them all. That would be a happy ending.

At least he killed the pregnant one. It's a Darwinian correction for the species.
