70-Year-Old Detroit High School Girls' Basketball Coach Shoots Attackers

Good guy with a gun WINS!! Good for the coach.

To bad the message will not sink in to the fallen one's colleagues in crime. Should not attempt to rob someone with a gun. Consider that your intended victim could be a well trained CCW carrier.

I see how easy it is for the 'other side' so to speak, to assume someone is posting with nefarious intent contrary to what they're actually saying.

You're happy someone died. A teenager. Not even finished school, but obviously in need to guidance.

And you're happy.

I don't think so... Could it be that you're trying to muster anti-support???

That's not really relevant.

If you pulled it on a cop they would have done the same thing.

I don't think - at least I hope not - that the officer would be sitting down to dinner with his wife and family and bursting at the seems to say "Happy Days, family of mine. I shot and killed a 15 year old kid today. Oh don't worry, he had a gun. I'm so proud of myself for not being slow on the draw."

Like the op.

So now the armed attacker becomes the victim... Classic reversal.... 15 years old or 25 years old... it does not matter when a person willingly commits a crime with a firearm and most certainly threatened the lives of his 3 victims. 3 victims dead?? or One armed and violent attacker dead?? Hmmmm... Lets defend the attacker... Poor kid never finished school? More than likely this kid was not even in school where he should be. If he's a victim of anything he is the victim of a violent culture in which he was raised. Just like the rest of them. It is a vicious and cruel circle... No one in public office with any weight seems to care enough to change that... NO ONE..

I'm not so much interested in who or what as I am with the display of sickening joy at the death of someone.

Shoot first, sort out the funeral later.

Laugh about it in the mean time, because, we damn dang got us a good one hyuk hyuk, in't that right sheriff Hog?

Not sure what mental condition the OP is suffering from, but this is far from a heartwarming story.

Guns on campus, an armed robbery and a dead teenager.

Absolute fools. You take pleasure from the deaths of people?

Yep this place has gone to the dogs, it used to be an interesting site - but now it's filled with gun-nuts and teeth-gnashing idiots who have no humanity.

The amount of vile, casual racism (usually from Americans) is horrendous, but the mods won't do a single thing about it and would rather punish someone for going off-topic than dealing with the scumbag racists and animals that now haunt this forum.

What is wrong with introducing on the job injury and death for career criminals?

Criminals begin their rejection of society's values at between 8-10 years old.

This is the approximate age that a developing human comes to the realization that they have free will and freedom of choice.

The criminal CHOOSES to violate and oppose society's values.

So the injured parties in this stroy had 7-8 years of criminal
activity before they CHOSE the wrong (from their point of view)
person to assault. (In my opinion they chose the correct and right "VICTIM" to assault).

So to the whiney sniveling social constructionists who blame
everything except the criminal for their wrong behavior, these
two criminals got what they deserved.

I remember playing a basketball game in the 80's at a notoriously tough school where the stands were empty, no fans allowed, and the bus had security. I don't think anyone was armed, but I don't remember

how sad they need escorts to get to their car

good for her she had the guts to defend those kids, and how sad she has to live with that memory now

awful

This is where I like to remind them that even badass SEAL's can't defend themselves against a bullet they don't expect.

Former Navy SEAL and "American Sniper" author Chris Kyle was fatally shot along with another man Saturday on a Texas gun range, a sheriff told local newspapers

I am not happy an education hungry, help an old lady cross the street, give the shirt off his back teenager died.

I am happy a thug trying to rob grandpa and his two young grand daughters was whisked away....

And then you did that stupid 'Go America' thing that idiots shout and holler and whoop, as though America is the only place on the planet. Why do people do that? Is it a mental illness.

You don't get people in Scotland shouting 'GO SCOTLAND' every time something happens. What is it about reiterating your geographical location every time something happens?

Is it in case you forget where you live?

AMERICA HELL YES!!

^^^ that crap. Can someone explain this please?

2 schoolkids pulled a gun on coach of the school they attended,(one of the kids had just been expelled from the school) the coach shoots one dead, the other is in hospital.

This kind of story makes you proud to be American.

You are proud of this violence in your country. Proud of a culture of KILL or be KILLED.

wow.

Well in some countries it would of been a crime to shoot this criminal..

As other posters have said some countries turn the victim into the criminal.

Here in America you have every right shoot a piece of scum like this...

reply to post by gangdumstyle


Yes but you lot seem to enjoy it. It sounded from your post like you loved it.

America is not the only country to have guns you know, I'm not sure if they taught you this in school, but other countries have guns and are far more responsible than baby America.

Do you see them jumping up and down and hollering like idiots every time a criminal is killed?

No.

Whenever the Government is involved, you’ll find a conspiracy theory.

This is just the latest one.

This kid took a risk waving a gun in other peoples faces demanding thier property. He paid for it plain and simple.

In this country you have the right to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your property.

The more people start doing this, the less this crap would happen eventually.

Police are nothing but responders and revenue farmers they don't protect or prevent nothing. They are a deterrent at best.

When people realize this and start protecting themselves things will get better quickly.

It's better to be tried by twelve.

Than carried by six.

The thugs thought it only happens to other people, not them.

The coach realized it could happen and was prepared.

You're missing the point. Yes, it would have been worse for three innocent people to die than one guilty person - but being happy about death is sick no matter what. Yes the kid shouldn't have been robbing the old man but he still has a grieving mother and family that will suffer for a long time.

You can say justice was served if you want I don't care, but to actually be boastful about how he got his comeuppance is just sick. It's still a sad situation when a young person or any person dies.
