[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so F*cked Up..it's time for Congress to act..it's time for us to act. Is anyone ready to demonstrate? I'm ready to express myself.[/quote]

Congress should do whatw? You will act how? Seriously what do you think will prevent this crime?[/quote]

If citizens start shooting back? [/quote]

1) no weapon used in this crime

2) such crimes often involve SEVERAL armed perps, even if you were LE you are not going to outgun that sitch.

3) shoot as a crime victim and I would NOT expect that to go well for you legally in this city

4) is it really harder to move than to pretend you will play Rambo and in all likelihood lose everything, if not killed yourself, in reality? What if your teens want to go to a movie in Georgetown? Skating? Shopping?

5) there have been murders, robberies and carjackings often in broad daylight in the Georgetown strip for a while now, even during rush hour. 1 man was murdered outside georgetown cupcake around the same time in the evening. maybe people had not noticed change until this had so much publicity?

The homeowner who shot the carjacker in the alley was charged.

Months later, the off duty security guard who shot the carjacker was not.

The city is getting tired of the carjacking and crime. If things don't change on the LEO and prosecution side, things will start changing on the victim side.  [/quote]

The guy who got charged shot at a kid breaking into unoccupied cars, and the last story I read on it indicated that the kids were unarmed and fleeing when he shot after them. Of course different evidence may come out as the case progresses but if that’s true, there’s almost nowhere that what he did would be considered justified self defense. Completely different circumstances than when someone confronts you with a weapon to jack your car, which is what happened to the off duty security guard who wasn’t charged. [/quote]
