[DGU] The 'Defensive Gun Use' Thread

[wtburnette]

I didn't watch the entire video, but I didn't see in the article and didn't see in the part of the video I watched the race of the man killed. Makes me wonder... :

Um, never mind. Robbery suspect changed his mind after realizing employee had a gun too, HPD says​

Just kidding. Houston police say an armed robbery suspect quickly had a change of heart when he realized his alleged victim also had a gun. Surveillance video shows the guy pull up his shirt and walk toward the desk of the car dealership employee before he stops in his tracks. He grinned, backed away and ran out the door and down the street. Now HPD's Robbery Division and Crime Stoppers are trying to identify that suspect and a second person they believe he was working with.

Not sure which one you are talking about. But for the most recent one before you posted I believe this is the person in question.

Video removed.....guess it did not fit the narrative.

Guy walked in, pulled up his shirt to remove gun, but when he turned around, there already was a gun pointed.
I guess news channels doesn't want to be "canceled".

HOUSTON, Texas......

One of them walked up to an employee asking to test drive a car and they walked inside an office.



According to police, when the employee sat in his chair he noticed the suspect pull up his shirt and grab a gun. This led the employee to grab his gun, which the suspect saw, and stated “No!”



The suspect then turned around, walked out of the office and took off running.

“Whoever that was, you’re not in trouble. Come see us. We have a gun safety class we put on every other Saturday, and if you take that, you’ll shoot a lot better, and hopefully, you’ll save the taxpayers money.”

I also liked in the story where the Sheriff said they have a gun class every Saturday. So the homeowner should come to one and maybe be a better shot next time.

Houston Texas a couple months ago:

MSN

Intruder breaks into house, goes upstairs, enters bedroom. Man in bedroom shoots intruder in the neck. Intruder flees, bangs on several doors in the neighborhood looking for help, eventually dies. Neighbors call cops about suspicious man banging on doors, cops arrive on scene, then they get the report about the intrusion and shooting.
