Details: Homeowner shoots 2 of FOUR criminals as they attempt to break into his home. Two were from NEW YORK, another from MASSACHUSETTS, and another was not found. One of the attackers was wanted for another shooting incident in South Burlington on June 7, 2012. Trinelle Cox, 26, from Brooklyn, NY, died following the incident. From Boston.com: "Officials say the homeowner has admitted he shot Cox twice in the torso and another man, Angel Concepcion, once in the abdomen as they tried to enter the apartment." Regardless of a possible drug connection, NO ONE should be a victim inside their own home in the middle of the night. Both suspects were apparently involved in another shooting in South Burlington the week before. SELF DEFENSE
NO law will prevent crime. No law will stop criminals from getting guns. Gun Control only effects the law-abiding citizen and the politicians know it.
