Three teens who will never commit armed robbery again.
Three on one with two armed BGs armed. Good shooting. Bring on the aspiring fill in the blank stories about children that would never hurt a fly.



Georgia homeowner fatally shoots 3 teens in masks who tried to rob him, sheriff's office says

Fox News

A Georgia homeowner fatally shot three teenagers who were purportedly trying to rob him and two others on Monday night, officials said.

The teenagers — ages 15, 16 and 16 — approached the residence in Conyers, a city roughly 25 miles southeast of Atlanta, with their faces covered in masks, according to the Rockdale County Sheriff's Office.

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.

Sheriff Eric Levett said deputies responded to the scene after a report of shots fired. When they arrived, the dead teenager was bordering the street and the driveway, and one of the other teens who was shot "was a little bit down the street, where it appears he was running."

Investigators said the three people who were on the Conyers property and neighbors have been interviewed, but no one has been charged. Levett confirmed two weapons were found at the scene and told reporters it's possible this could be a "stand-your-ground" type of case, based upon preliminary information.

Witness Carlos Watson told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution he woke up to the "sounds of gunfire."

“I heard somebody yell for help ... then I heard it again, and that’s when I came outside,” Watson said. “There was one gentleman laid out and our neighbor Mr. Jenkins was helping him out.”

He said the situation seems to have been "a home invasion that went bad for the invaders," and said the community is a "nice area" that doesn't see random crime often.

The article also refers to it as a "home invasion", so who knows what really happened before the journalist got their hands on the story.

It's an interesting incident, according to another article I saw, this happened in the front yard at 4AM.

Also saw a quote from a neighbor that the homeowner was a truck driver and kept odd hours. I can see that, he likely might have just gotten home or could have been up to go to work. Also said his mother lived there.

Raises my eyebrow a bit. More to the story for sure.

Three dead thugs - no matter if they're put down by a homeowner, Mother Theresa or another thug - is still a good thing.

Two of the dead teens have been identified. I'm going out on limb and guessing the home-owner is not white, otherwise the media would be working overtime to make this another Zimmerman-Martin shitstorm.

“They was loving, they was brothers," said LaShawn Thornton, their aunt, Monday evening, speaking of how close they were to each other.

The brothers' aunt, Thornton, said the family is aching for answers, wondering why the teens went out in the middle of the night wearing masks, wondering why they would have confronted the other family, wondering if the teens had been shot in the back as they were running away, wondering why the three members of the other family--the homeowner, his mother and one other person--were outside in their front yard at 4:00 a.m., wondering why the teens would have walked all the way down that street to the last house in the cul-de-sac, wondering what ballistics tests will show, anxious to get answers about everything.

Let me explain it to you auntie, as simply as possible. Your nephews put on masks and tried to rob the wrong man and paid for it with their lives. Maybe you should try figuring out what's wrong with your brother/sister and figure why the hell these kids were allowed to roam the street armed with masks at 4AM.

Should have taught they not to be little maggots and maybe they brothers would still be earning you extra ebt credits.
I'll toast the homeowners marksmanship later tonight.

Show up at a house wearing masks and brandishing firearms at 4 am and don't be surprised if you run into a wall of lead.

Easy answers for the Aunt.

They were unsupervised little POSs who probably have Juvenile records.

The three VICTIMS, in their own yard, were probably either going to or coming home from WORK. Something that is alien to those who breed unsupervised little POSs.

The ballistics will show, whatever it was, had excellent penetration and expansion and let out lots of fluid while letting in lots of air. Effectively ending the threat from three unsupervised POSs who shot at the victims.

When you figure in lifetime encarceration costs, the savings to the taxpayer here was quite substantial. Regards 18DAI

I'm taking a wild guess here, with my wild guess being that with an aunt called 'LaShawn', that these three little [now] angels came from the part of the population where names like that are rather more common than would otherwise be the case.

Not an unexpected outcome for their chosen course of action.

The interview w/ the neighbor, it sounds like it was pistol vs. semi-auto rifle. The neighbor knows the victim owns AR and the police removed one from the house (according the the neighbor).
He described the shooting as pop-pop-pop, then BOOM!-BOOM!-BOOM!-BOOM!
