An armed person stopped an attempted burglary in Atlanta this week, police said. On March 8 around 3:03 p.m., officers responded to a Chik-fil-A on Peachtree Street. “Upon arrival, officers spoke with witnesses who stated a black male walked inside, produced a firearm and demanded money from several employees. The employees fled and the suspect exited the business a short time later. Several nearby citizens confronted the suspect as he was leaving. One of the citizens was armed and at some point, during the confrontation, the citizen fired several shots. The suspect ran on foot and was apprehended nearby, by the citizens and held until police arrived,”

If Biden and the leftist Democrats get their way there will be no armed citizens in position to stop robberies like what caused this story to be written.

Like De Blasio's wife said, "police yourselves". Armed citizens to be charged for challenging the armed robber's rights.

Poster #2, if Biden and the democrats have their way there will be no armed policemen, much less armed citizens to stop crime. The only ones armed will be the criminals.

How was this an "attempted burglary,' as stated in the article? This was an ARMED ROOBERY in progress.

When the armed robber is lying speadeagled on the ground at gunpoint about to have law enforcement apply the bracelets, he has the belated opportunity to review his life's choices, with regrets. If he absorbs a mortal defensive bullet or three from his intended victim, well, that's the chance he was taking when he pulled out a gun to commit a crime. As his vitals are bullet-gripped and start shutting down and the world darkens, he won't have the opportunity to contemplate his life's choices as he shakes hands with the darkness and succumbs. Although I prefer cops to take the bad guys down, civilians are usually better located than police (who, after all, must be summoned). If a violent crime is about to go down, it's better that potential victims, if possible (you shouldn't draw from the drop unless you want to die immediately), stop the criminal(s) with deadly force of their own rather than let it happen and hope the perpetrators are intent on only on robbery, not murder. The wholly unconstitutional gun control agenda of the Xiden administration will have no effect on violent armed criminals while making legal defenders less safe by taking ammunition out of their firearms, and by trying to outlaw their modern sport rifles such as the AR-15, which are by far the most effective self-defense weapons. There is no battlefield army on earth that would issue its combat soldiers an AR-15 Why not? Because their enemies, who will have machine guns, would cut them to pieces. A semiautomatic rifle legally available for decades, whether, AR, AK, Mini-14, Galil, or whatever, is not a machine gun, and can't be legally converted into one. I have heard of a single individual holding off more than a dozen armed attackers at a house with an AR. Once the would be invaders saw what they were up against, one of them yelled, "He's got a tec!" They didn't want any of that, and fled. Wrong house!

#7 said it before I could: this was an armed "robbery," not an attempted "burglary" as stated in the introductory paragraph. This amateur journalism without editorial review is embarrassing us as a society. I admit that it's better than the professional journalists who hide, obfuscate, or ignore any news that doesn't fit their woke, leftist world view.

Anyone choosing to carry a pistol has the obligation to practice with it so that accuracy of shots can be the rule.

#10 is correct. Effective pistol shooting requires regular practice. No doubt about it. If you don't know how, hire an NRA instructor.

Did it occur to any of the leftist politicians boostering for the 'Defund the Police' far-left trope that they might just be left holding the bag? Seems not. And sure enough, it's slowly starting to dawn on them that were played for fools. Because in the wake of the media-vaunted 'defund police' movement, every last blue city in America kowtowing to this has, surprise, found itself in the middle of a crime wave. Crime-plagued blue cities are now becoming unliveable, and citizens who form their tax bases are fleeing, That presents some problems for these pols. Caracas-ization is not for the faint of heart.

The Biden administration can be subjected to two empirical tests by any observer: first whether there will there be a new outbreak of war in the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) owing to the repudiation of the Abraham Accords and second, will it endorse restrictions on the exercise of the First and Second Amendments? We can leave aside for a moment the question of whether these possible developments are justified or beneficial. All that need concern the analyst for the moment is whether they can be detected. They most probably can because their signal characteristics are strong enough to burn through any spin.
Mike Rowe: Everyone Is Essential 9 replies

Politicians have too much power over our lives. Many used the pandemic as another excuse to take more. Early on, politicians declared that they would decide who was “essential.” Everyone else was told to stay home. Much of the economy stopped. Millions were laid off. Then politicians relaxed the rules for industries that they deemed “essential.” “You can’t just call somebody essential without implicitly suggesting that half the workforce is not essential,” points out Mike Rowe, host of the surprise hit TV series, “Dirty Jobs.” That’s a big problem, says Rowe, because people find purpose in work. Now the Biden administration is eager to give money to people not working. It’s pushing

Last Thursday, as the House of Representatives debated H.R. 5, the Orwellian “Equality Act,” a seemingly exasperated Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) arguably revealed the true nature of his party’s radical legislation. In response to Rep. Greg Steube’s (R-Fla.) speech quoting the Bible, Nadler declared that “what any religious tradition describes as God’s will is no concern of this Congress.” The Equality Act would enshrine the concept of “gender identity” into federal civil rights law, mandating that Americans kowtow to biologically false transgender identities. Steube quoted the Bible to express the fact that millions of Americans

Four people were arrested in Texas last month on 150 counts of voter fraud dating back to the 2018 Medina County Primary Election, according to reports. The Texas attorney general’s Election Fraud Unit on Feb. 11 arrested Medina County Justice of the Peace Tomas Ramirez, and earlier detained Leonor Rivas Garza, Eva Ann Martinez and Mary Balderrama on election fraud allegations, News4SA reported. According to a release from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office, the case involved allegations of vote harvesting at assisted living centers in Medina County in the 2018 Medina County Primary Election.

If you’ve a memory longer than a nanosecond you might recall that in 2016 when he was nominated by then-President Obama to the Supreme Court to fill the vacancy created by Justice Antonin Scalia’s death, Merrick Garland was widely touted as a “moderate.” President Biden has now nominated him for the slot of Attorney General, and the confirmation vote is scheduled for this coming week. How do you define moderate? His confirmation hearings reveal to me that Garland is certainly not one: Last summer, 220 cities were besieged by gangs that attacked homes, businesses, federal buildings, and local law enforcement.

A new study from a Los Angeles hospital pushes for injecting men with the female sex hormone progesterone to treat COVID-19. The trial, carried out by pulmonologist Sara Ghandehari of the Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, recruited 40 male patients hospitalized with COVID-19. “As an ICU doctor, I was struck by the gender disparity among COVID-19 patients who were very sick, remained in the hospital, and needed ventilators,” she emphasized. “One group acted as a control sample, for comparison, and received only the standard medical care given at that time for the disease. The experimental group, meanwhile, also received 100-milligram injections of progesterone twice daily for five days

While the news of the day was Joe Biden tripping and grinding himself into the stairs of Air Force One, a much bigger story happened just prior.Secretary of State Antony Blinken decided to invite the Chinese delegation to Alaska to hold diplomatic talks. Holding a publicly-broadcast meeting is typically something you do when you know exactly how things are going to go. The last thing you want is to see your country humiliated by a tyrannical regime.
