Domestic Violence ends in Shooting (but not what you think)
Normally when you see that title, you think, domestic abuse escalated to the point where the abuser shot the victim. This story has a bit of a twist..
As reported in the lapd blog. Man confronts his ex girlfriend in a garage and starts stabbing her with a pocketknife. The womans daughter comes out to help her mom and starts getting stabbed as well. The daughter’s boyfriend comes out and shoots the man dead. Woman and daughter, although hospitalized, will survive.
Is your first concern really whether the boyfriend’s gun was legal or not or if citizens should carry guns at all?
Second thought for your consideration…. If the boyfriend called the cops, how long would it have taken for them to arrive? Would the woman and her daughter have been dead by then, or, would the attacker have shown mercy and stopped before he stabbed them to death?
These are the stories you don’t here. Hats off to LAPD for actually bringing this to the public attention. Then again, LAPD did arrest the boyfriend for murder.
