yesterday one armed thief was killed, one injured and the third arrested after robbing the passengers of a local public transportation bus. apparently two passengers were armed and after the hoodlums got off the bus the two went after them and shot them. as stated, one got away but was picked up later by the police. the argument here is why did they wait for the crooks (armed crooks) get off the bus before confronting them? (actually, they were shot from behind) their lives were no longer in danger. true, the law will not stand behind these guys because they were no longer acting in self defense. what did they do? asked the bus driver to take them further down the road and drop them off in separate bus stops. the fuzz is still trying to find them. hope they get away, and hope the rest of the criminal community takes notice.... I have a link but it is in Spanish,

Hi;

I did not read the artice or see pictures on this. Basically, honest people have had enough. More of this will continue and spread. The so called legal system will become non efective. The police will become like the game wardens and just go along and pick up the road kills and dump them off in a ditch with lime and after a while, a bulldozer will cover it all up.

we can only hope. the local 'justice' system has become almost ineffective due to all the 'touchy feely PC' rules that the cops have to follow. now they have trouble getting a crook locked up even if they catch them in the act. if it ain't one thing.. it's somethin' else....

A crowded bus isn't the best place to initiate a gun fight if you a good guy.

Of course maybe the 3 that did rob the bus beat the other two to it and then the two just picked up the loot.

possible, but it sounds like a couple guys that really, really wanted their stuff back. the hoods here keep close to home when robbing like this, rob the bus between stops and run home before the cops come. these three just didn't run fast enough..

We don't call it vigilante justice here. We just say "good shot".

I didn't say vigilante is wrong, just not legal.

and of course, didn't say I disagree, but I guess you guys already fingered that out... right?
