| HT : Bill Handel KFI SANTA MONICA, Calif. - A man who tried to rob two people at gunpoint in a fast-food restaurant drive-thru was shot and killed by one of his intended victims early Thursday, police said. The 25-year-old man died at the scene. His name was not immediately released pending notification of his family. The victims, two men, were in the Santa Monica drive-thru shortly before 5 a.m. "when a masked suspect approached their vehicle and displayed a knife and handgun," said police Lt. Frank Fabrega.
I think it is as funny as heck to have an incident like this reported by such an anti-gun person as Handel. Handel is good on the WOT, but has some liberal leanings in other areas... Later news. Police determine it was self defense. The procecutor is trying to determine if he will file (has a chance in hell of a conviction) a misdemeanor concealed weapons charge... | |||

| #6 The concealed weapon charge could only be pressed if the cops actually saw it concealed. If the gun isn't registered in CA it's a crime in this state. This is LA, a DA will be stupid enough to bring charges and the guy who pulled the trigger is going to be sued for sure. Play "The World Turned Up Side Down." No, myself defense handgun is not registered and I don't need the "kings" permission to carry it on my person if I deem to do so. I have taken all the courses required by law but decided that the law is against my human rights. Therefore I defy it when and if I think I need to do so. The guy did the right thing after the guy attacked. He was within his rights under California law. |

| #5 "Santa Monica robber killed by intended victims" Works for me. :-D Wonder if he can bill the family for the cost of the bullet? Personally, I'd consider it a donation and write it off. |

| #4 Remember that privately many liberals are bitter racists, even though they are in utter denial about it. Conservatives may be down on a particular race, but they will usually give individuals of that race the benefit of the doubt, if they appear to be "polite people". Many liberals seem incapable of treating individuals of other races as individuals, demanding that they conform to the liberals view of what they think they are. As example, for this reason, Condi Rice is not, cannot be, African-American or black. She is some thing, but she is not a negro. |

| #2 Police said the gun used to shoot the suspect belonged to the intended victim, but it was unclear whether he had a permit to carry a concealed weapon. Who cares? The crime was stopped, and that's all that matters. |

| #1 It wasn't concealed when he pulled the trigger. I don't see the misdemeanor charge. If the perp was hit, I vote to aquit. |
