If it was a stolen car, and the owner tried to stop them by shooting at them, he's going to be charged. Especially in Philadelphia.

"Police are not yet clear on if this was a carjacking – or an attempted car theft and shooting – but these incidents have been on the minds of the public and police."

Lethal force to defend stolen property is not justified in PA. Or many other states for that matter. Definitely not in NJ.

Good shoot of the carjackers. Unfortunately the other two accomplices got away. 
 

Now, the family of the dead perp is calling for ‘justice’. They want the victim who shot their son to be charged with murder. 
 

Fuck that. You should have taught you son not to be a violent criminal, and maybe he’d still be alive.

Rules of use of deadly force apply. Victim (meaning the guy who was carjacked), had a reasonable expectation of receiving serious bodily harm or death, being accosted by 3 men carjacking him. 
 

I will concede the illegal carry point. 
 

I believe he was defending his life, and I think that’s a perfectly justifiable conclusion to draw in this situation.

There are a few things that don't add up here.

If it was a car jacking, who was in the targeted car? It wasn't the shooter as he was in his residence.

Has anyone ever heard of the perps trying to tow away the target vehicle in a car jacking? This sounds much more like regular theft with the owner not present.

If those two things are true, I do not think it is a self defense situation and the shooting was not legally justified.

The report says the shots were fired from inside the car owner's residence. Since when has anyone needed a carry permit inside their home?

The shootout is one of several recent incidents in Philadelphia in which would-be victims have fought back and turned the tables on their assailants.

On Jan. 17, a 60-year-old man with a license to carry shot an armed 16-year-old male who attempted to carjack him, FOX29 reported. The teen was wounded and later arrested.

On Jan. 10, a 32-year-old victim with a license to carry a firearm was sitting in his car when an armed 18-year-old suspect pointed a gun at him. The victim fired through the car window, hitting the suspect multiple times. The 18-year-old was later arrested.

On Jan. 3, two men carjacked a Lyft driver who also had a license to carry a firearm. The driver shot both suspects, who were each wounded and arrested shortly after the incident.

Philly Fights Back!  Love it

"Over time, Justin's obsession with the girl became worrying. She learned that her hometown friends in Naples, Florida, were selling the man photos of her and other information, including her cellphone number."

Those are some shitty friends you got there. Also I will add that clicking through to original reporting, those hometown friends were from jersy city.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
