Imagine the real estate pitch.

'As you can see, the property boasts three bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, an attached two-car garage, lovely southern exposure and a free-standing basement wine rack that was constructed by the previous owner just before he was run out of town by an international drug cartel that operates in the neighborhood.'

BOX Magazine.


And since I'm on the subject. The Term "Lock and Load" means, "Lock the bolt forward, and Load the magazine. Seems like hollywood and backyard rambo's like to think it's the other way around, slapping a round in the chamber, and thereby charging the weapon.

I'm not sure the guy could have done anything else at the time, especially with the death threats toward his family.

What annoys me is the fact that if he stays in the house the outcome will more than likely be the same as that in the Grand Torino film, I doubt the police would be able to protect him forever.

He fired it into the grass at a bunch of MS-13 thugs. Good going!

MS-13 are an organized roving gang that have been storming into homes and looting them lately.

I vote this guy New York's Man of the Year.
That is what we need!! Great job!
