Buttstroked, Dude

Post by Darrell »

I heard this on the radio early this morning, didn't realize it was a local story. A guy threatens to behead two women, another guy comes to their defense with a shotgun and buttstrokes the bad guy in the head. Now they say the bad guy's gonna lose his eye. Cry me a river.
A man who threatened to behead two women because they were Christians was attacked in self-defense early Saturday and injured so severely, police say, that his eye was to be removed.

Russell Bowman, who called himself an atheist, showed up with a large knife at the women's apartment in the 700 block of Tia Juana Street about 3:15 a.m., police said.

Another resident grabbed a shotgun and ordered him to put the knife down. When Bowman refused and began approaching, the person hit him with the butt end of the weapon, police said.

Doctors at Memorial Hospital reportedly told police the eye would have to be removed.
I suspect due to Colorado self defense laws, the one eyed dude can't sue in civil court, either. More at the link:

The only better way that this could have been better was instead of buttstroking he should have given him the other end at center mass. Then the guy wouldn't have had to have any medical procedure.

I wonder if he didn't have a safe shot, or the perp got too close to use the naughty end.
Buy ammunition and magazines.

This is where a Winchester '97 trench gun would have come in handy. Buttstroke, then bayonett the bastard.

Why show this ass any mercy. He loses an eye, is considered a loser and a deformed freak, and he lives with humiliation and scorn dogging his every step until he slices his own head off out of the agony of waking up in the morning as a sack of fail.

POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

12 ga buck would have gone a long way to decapitating the goblin. Talk about irony.

A major reason why I prefer a full stock on my HD Shotgun (Moss 500). If we're in that close quarters I want all the mass and leverage I can.

Flame thrower would have worked, too. :lol:
If you are unwilling to give another man freedom in his life, do not expect to have it in your own.
