What's wrong with these young people they have no regards for life or anything
In Georgia, can you murder someone for a property crime?
Stay in your house, barricade with your wife in a safe protected spot, if they invade your home pick them off as they come through.
There was nothing shown they were “home invaders”. Looked like car prowlers.
You can’t see it in this video, but also he fires a “warning shot”, where is that bullet going to land? Also leaves a firearm in his truck that’s now being sold on the street. Irresponsible firearm use and ownership plain and simple.
I don’t understand why this man and his actions on this night are essentially being praised? It’s really bizarre.
Democrats- the resident should face prosecution.
“Mr. smith you’re very brave, you’re very brave, but you’re very crazy you’re very stupid but you’re very brave.” Love it
Too bad he didn't hit any of them …
For a veteran I thought he would be a better aimer.
Wonder if his insurance covers that
Those gentlemen were outgunned
Glad to see some blacks are good people who want to protect what they work for and live a peaceful life. Too bad he didn't take out at least one of these thugs. He should have taken time to aim and sent a couple of them to the morgue. I would have done' the same thing. God bless and protect you sir, and keep protecting your property and family.
Perfect cover and cutting the pie definitely a vet!
👆👆thanks bro, I got the package delivered, and I got my money off it,perhaps you’re the best CC vendor I’ve ever meant on the comment section,more ahead bro.
I wouldn't leave a nice car like that outside in that kind of neighbourhood , it's probably better to keep it in the garage.
Bad Ass💪🏾💖💪🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for your service!!! God bless you and your family!!! I hope they catch those intruders asap.
That's why we need guns! One reason anyway
Ain't stupid bro!
Don't mess with well armed military veterans!!
America is a toilet
Good for him, you should have killed those thugs
Man f that car you should’ve called police dude
Don't mess with GI Joe!
Good for people like this.all they are doing is protecting their family.
