The trio "attempted to rob three individuals in the front yard" of the home, and one of the teenagers "brandished a gun and fired shots" at those in the front yard.

One of the intended victims of the attempted robbery returned fire, shooting all three teenagers, authorities said in a news release. One of the teenagers died at the scene, while the two others died at a nearby hospital.

Submitter's note: Three less hoodlums and no one knows how many crimes they won't commit.

This is the only thing that keeps criminals in check. They have no fear of the police or the criminals justice system.

First Post-Debate Poll: No Bounce For Beto O�Rourke After Call For Gun Confiscation Submitted by: jack burton Website: https://myhightechsecurity.com	There are no comments on this story Post Comments \| Read Comments
I�ve been in suspense since Thursday night wondering how his call to take everyone�s AR-15 would play with the Democratic base. There�s nothing that might singlehandedly place a struggling candidate on voters� radar like a passionate call for radicalism on one of the left�s top cultural priorities. Especially since Beto has the field more or less to himself in staking out this position.

Why do Democrats want to take away your AR-15? The fact that such a weapon was used by the Odessa shooter was the basis for Robert Francis �Beto� O�Rourke�s infamous declaration: �Hell yes, we�re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47!� But this is like banning cars because automobile accidents kill more than 40,000 Americans a year, or banning tall buildings because more than 35,000 Americans die each year from accidental falls. O�Rourke is advocating what might be called the Instrumental Theory of Evil: The cause of our problems is not bad people, but bad things. Therefore, ban the evil things!

�A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.� ~ Samuel Adams, American Statesman, political philosopher, and one of the founding fathers; from his letter to James Warren, February 12, 1779

The National Rifle Association (NRA) may be dedicated to armed self-defense, but the organization itself is largely indefensible. NRA leader Wayne LaPierre, who billed the group for his luxury clothing and lavish vacations, spent the summer purging high-ranking rivals who questioned its dire financial straits. Though it bills itself as the nation�s �largest civil-rights organization,� the NRA is unenthusiastic about defending the rights of black gun owners and has trafficked in racist rhetoric through its media outlet. The group wields its political influence to block gun-control measures backed by 90 percent of the American people.

While participating in the Democratic National Committee's (DNC) third presidential primary debate, O'Rourke declared in no uncertain terms that if he were to be elected president, he would impose a nationwide gun confiscation program to size millions of firearms from law-abiding citizens. "Hell yes, we're going to take away your AR-15, your AK-47," O'Rourke said at the time amid massive cheers. "We are not going to allow it to be used against our fellow citizens anymore."

Hopefully the mere fact that you�re reading this article means that you�re concerned and willing to take action against the all-out assault we are seeing against the Second Amendment. To make matters worse, the liberal Left and mainstream media just do not get it, nor do they care. Make no mistake, the liberal side of the field (look no further than the current democratic candidates for president) wants to force a mandatory buy back of your assault rifles, outlaw high capacity magazines and implement Red Flag laws. (a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment)

If Trump says no to reform this fall, he�s essentially gambling that nothing catastrophic will happen over the next year that ends up galvanizing an electoral push on gun control. That�s a reasonably safe gamble � public backlashes to gun rights after major violence are famously fleeting � but not completely riskless. To put all of that another way, if Trump�s willing to do anything on background checks *at any point*, the time to do it is now.

Lead Semi-Wadcutter Hollow Point Ammo: LSWHP Bullets Explained Submitted by: David Williamson Website: http://libertyparkpress.com	There is 1 comment on this story Post Comments \| Read Comments
The wadcutter is a very unique type of bullet, very much like a lead cylinder. Almost exclusively used to punch holes in paper with low pressure and lightly loaded cartridges, wadcutters don't change shape or become deformed when fired. They make scoring target sheets extremely easy because the round hole created is very defined compared to any other type of ammunition.

In response to recent mass shootings throughout the country, San Rafael officials this week discussed enacting local laws they say could help prevent gun violence in the city. �(Taking) no action is inexcusable,� said Mayor Gary Phillips, who has called on federal lawmakers to tighten gun laws after massacres last month in Texas and Ohio killed 31 people in two days. Phillips had pledged in August to fly city flags at half-staff until Congress took action on gun safety, but he decided to raise the flags less than a week later and said he�d instead work to tackle the issue locally.
