Man tries to enter the bathroom stall where your daughter is at. Is it right to beat him to death?

via Heavy.com
Melvin Harris III is an Arizona father who beat a man to death after the man tried to enter Harris’s daughter’s bathroom stall at a Phoenix convenience store, officials say.

26-year-old Leon Armstrong, the man accused of trying to enter Harris’s daughter’s stall, suffered a broken nose and a severe brain injury after the beating. Police say he eventually succumbed to his injuries and died.
Story here.  READ IT ALL BEFORE YOU COMMENT! 

Did you read the story?

Ya did?

Good.  Bout time you followed simple instructions (just playing but its obvious some people don't get simple info before making judgement calls)!

So where did this guy go wrong?

He should have caught the guy in the act and shot the fucker dead.  Of course I have to wonder why he would have his daughter out a freaking midnight to go to a Gawd Damn convenience store, but that's beside the point.  Poor parenting is not a crime.

Why his daughters didn't call out in terror is beyond me too.  That part I don't understand.  Thankfully I don't have a daughter cause I'd be paranoid beyond description but if this kinda thing happened I would like to believe she would be screaming for me like there was no tomorrow and I HOPE ON MY VERY LIFE that I would rush to her defense no matter what (actually there is no need to hope...fuckers would die ugly if they tried to hurt my mythical little girl).

But back on task.

Dude went wrong because he was informed after the fact and then pursued the dude for a beat down.

I think (and Law Enforcement bubbas correct me please) that if his daughter had yelled, he came running and he beat this dude the way he did that he would be ok.

The fact that he hunted him down is where things go off the rails. 

After the fact it became a police matter.

But forget me.

What do you guys think?  And I have to put it out there.  Does this sound legit?  I have a sneaky suspicious that we're missing a piece of information here.

Raytheon's answer to the US Army's deep strike mission...






So Raytheon is gonna re-work the ATACMs and make it even better for the US Army.  The USMC should piggy back hard on this program.  Marine Air will try hard but the Chinese will push us.  We need a ground based solution for deep fires when the Wing is off doing other stuff....

Nicolas Drummond's take on MBT vs Medium Tanks...






What do you guys think?  Valid or is he missing a piece of the puzzle?

So this is the "high speed" Chinese UAV that has everyone buzzing...

Hat Tip to @RupprechtDeino Twitter Page...


The current tariffs are putting a serious hurt on the Chinese economy but I might have underestimated their determination to continue their defense modernization.

I assumed that they would turn toward more civic projects to make up for the pain but defense is obviously an important industry so they're full speed ahead.

Get out of your normalcy bias.  The Chinese are closing the gap.
