I wonder what the results would have been if the owner had pulled out
his trusty pistol and started shooting the robbers?
 
Charged with discharging gun within the city limits?

It's a coin toss or maybe even a crap shoot depending on the

We love Grady Judd....

****************************

 
As reported earlier this week, some dirtbag who got pulled over in a
routine traffic stop in Florida ended up "executing" the deputy who
stopped him.

The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear
at close range.

Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed.

A statewide manhunt ensued. The low-life piece of human garbage was
found hiding in a wooded area with his gun. SWAT team officers fired
and hit said low-life 68 times.

Now here's the kicker: Asked why they shot the guy 68 times, Polk
County Sheriff Grady Judd told the Orlando Sentinel ... get this.
"That's all the bullets we had."

God bless Sheriff Judd!
