College student shoots home invader, saves 10 lives
Yet another reason to keep a gun in the house . . .
Several months ago, in the notoriously dangerous neighborhood of
College Park in Atlanta, Georgia, two armed criminals broke into a
house party of students.
After confiscating the group's valuables, the invaders split the men
and women up into different rooms.
Witnesses say the perpetrators then counted their rounds and discussed
if they had "enough" ammunition.
The students believe the gunmen were going to rape and murder the
entire group of students, who were celebrating a birthday at the end
of the semester.
However, one male student, whose identity is being protected by police
and local media, retrieved a handgun from his backpack and fired at
the thug who was detaining the men.
(That is: One smart student had prepared for a night in College Park,
Atlanta.)
The criminal fled the apartment under the threat of injury and never
returned.
The student, continuing on into the girls' room, found the other thug,
23-year-old Calvin Lavant, preparing to rape his first victim.
The student exchanged gunfire with Lavant, lethally wounding him in
the process. Lavant fled through a window and died in front of his
apartment, only one building away.
One of the female students was injured during the exchange, but
doctors expect a full and complete recovery.
So what's the point
A student saved the girls from rape, and saved the whole group of 10
people (including himself) from murder . . . and he did it with a
handgun.
This is a perfect example of how ludicrous "big city gun laws" are.
What if this had happened in New York, Chicago, or any of the other
big cities that criminalize their citizens' self defense?
Yes, we would be reading an entirely different story -- one so
horrendous that we would shudder at the very words.
Either this whole group of friends would have been raped and murdered
by these two sorry excuses for human beings . . . or the hero of this
story would be facing prison time for firearm possession and murder.
Thankfully, however, Atlanta hasn't outlawed self-defense yet. And
since someone had a gun and was willing to use it, innocent life was
preserved.
Congratulations to the unnamed hero of this story. You saved your
friends' lives.

Don't get even -- get odd! :��
that is about as relevant to anything as if a organization called
"guys agains seltbelts"
said you shouldn't wear seatbelts because in they have a story about
some guy who
survived a crash because he didn't.
I'm sure the risk of something going really bad is much worse with
guys bringing guns
to a party getting drunk and killing someone is much much higher than
the remote
chance that one of them will be the hero that saves the day, given the
utterly remote
risk that it is just that one party in trillion that some decides to
break into and kill all.

Keep your gnosis out of my business!
The statistics are something like 10 to 15K gun fatalities per year vs
somewhere over a million incidents of guns being used to thwart crimes
(not necessarily shooting somone).
Yes, guns are dangerous. Ideally, we would be better off with training
progams. But since these are often the first step in plans for gun
confiscation, there's no legitimate way to make them mandatory. So,
thanks to the gun grabbers, we've got to live with the situation as is.

3 dead, 3 hurt in Alabama campus shooting
<http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2010-02-12-alabama-university-shooting_N.htm>
Woman faculty member denied tenure at University of Alabama's Huntsville
campus, kills three biology professors and injures three other employees
at the school Friday.
It's the second shooting in a week on an area campus. Last Friday, a
14-year-old student was killed in a middle school hallway in nearby
Madison, allegedly by a fellow student.
But, gee Rich, if the lady hadn't lost her temper this Friday, she might
have been able to thwart a crime somewhere next Friday. And that middle
school kid, he definitely could have thwarted a crime somwehere last
Thursday if he was in the right place at the right time, but he wasn't,
so he killed a student on Friday instead.
You're an idiot. Some states try that horseshit, but the fact is that
only incarcerated felons or felons still on parole have less than full
citizenship rights and the ONLY "right" they lose after that is the
ability to legally own, carry, or use a firearm, and even *that*
disability can be expunged.
You must not watch much news over there, or are too illiterate to know
what is going on.
14 teenagers were slaughtered just a couple weeks ago. They have
already caught one of the shooters.
So we are already up to 2 parties, and there haven't even been a
billion parties yet in the world, much less a trillion.
Pretty much means that you are an idiot. A statistical dingledorf.
Cool. Brow beaten by his own countryman! Good job.
Why don't you tell the truth lying NRA winger?
There are too many guns in too many hands of people who should not
have them.

Prof. in custody in fatal shooting on Ala. campus
By KRISTIN M. HALL, Associated Press Writer Kristin M. Hall,
Associated Press Writer
2 mins ago
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Authorities say a woman opened fire during a
faculty meeting at the University of Alabama's Huntsville campus,
killing three biology professors and injuring three other school
employees.
University spokesman Ray Garner said the shooter was caught outside
the building without incident, and no students were harmed in the
shooting Friday.
Several students identified the woman who was being taken into custody
as Amy Bishop, an instructor and researcher at the university. She was
taken Friday night in handcuffs from a police precinct to the county
jail and could be heard saying, "It didn't happen. There's no way ....
they are still alive."
Local media also named the biology professor as the suspected shooter,
though Garner said he could not identify her.
Police said no charges had been filed and they were interviewing the
woman suspect and a man identified as "a person of interest."
Garner said the three killed were Gopi K. Podila, the chairman of the
Department of Biological Sciences, and two other faculty members,
Maria Ragland Davis and Adriel Johnson.
Two others are in critical condition, and a third who was wounded was
upgraded to fair condition. The injured were identified as department
members Luis Cruz-Vera and Joseph Leahy and staffer Stephanie
Monticello. Their specific conditions were not released.
Sammie Lee Davis said his wife, Maria Ragland Davis, was a researcher
who had tenure at the university.
In a brief phone interview, he said he was told his wife was at a
meeting to discuss the tenure status of another faculty member who got
angry and started shooting.
He said his wife had mentioned the shooter before, describing the
woman as "not being able to deal with reality" and "not as good as she
thought she was."
Nick Lawton, the son of a biology professor at the school, said his
father was not among the victims, but he did not know much more.
Lawton, 25, was exercising when a friend phoned him to tell him about
the shooting. He called his father, Robert Lawton, and found out that
he was not hurt, then he let rest of his family know.
"All I know is that my father is OK," Nick Lawton told The Associated
Press.
Sophomore Erin Johnson told The Huntsville Times a biology faculty
meeting was under way when she heard screams coming from a conference
room.
University police secured the building and students were cleared from
it. There was still a heavy police presence on campus Friday night,
with police tape cordoning off the main entrance to the university.
The Huntsville campus has about 7,500 students in northern Alabama,
not far from the Tennessee line. The university is known for its
scientific and engineering programs and often works closely with NASA.
The space agency has a research center on the school's campus, where
many scientists and engineers from NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center
perform Earth and space science research and development.
The university posted a message on its Web site Friday afternoon
telling students the campus was closed Friday night and all students
were encouraged to go home. Counselors were available to speak with
students.
It's the second shooting in a week on an area campus. Last Friday, a
14-year-old student was killed in a middle school hallway in nearby
Madison, allegedly by a fellow student.
"This town is unaccustomed to shootings and multiple deaths," Garner
said.

AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST PERSONALS AD
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before
last.
Date: 2009-05-27, 1 :43 a.m. E.S.T.
I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that
I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my
girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend's
purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this
rather important message.
First, I'd like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn't expect
you to actually crap in your pants when I drew my pistol after you
took my jacket.. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the
jacket for a reason.. My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber
Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a
shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it
is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head ... isn't it?!
I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to wherever you'd come
from with that brown sludge in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse
walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and
wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your
buddies to come help mug us again].
After I called your mother or "Momma" as you had her listed in your
cell, I explained the entire episode of what you'd done. Then I went
and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the
gas station, -- on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home
took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!
I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go's, along
with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]
I then threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile" that was
parked at the curb .... after I broke the windshield and side window
and keyed the entire driver's side of the car
Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma
Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a
little over a day now, so what 's going on with that? Earlier, I
managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA's office and
one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible
target.
The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I
guess while he traced your number etc.).
;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you ... but I
feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for
your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some
of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you
have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the
career path you've chosen to pursue in life.. Remember, next time you
might not be so lucky.Have a good day!
Thoughtfully yours,
Alex
------------------------
Cheers!
Rich
One day's "victim" can be another day's perp. People snap.
Well, assuming it isn't BS (which appears likely), what do you think
about this bit?
" I then threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile" that was
parked at the curb .... after I broke the windshield and side window
and keyed the entire driver's side of the car"
What would you have done if you saw him trashing your car?
I think Alex went a little overboard and unnecessarily escalated a
crime which
should have been nipped in the bud.
> What would you have done if you saw him trashing your car?
I'd have tried to stop him, of course, but who drives a big pink
pimpmobile anyway?
Admittedly, the story is a little over the top, and Alex went
overboard on his
response, but it does make a point that an armed citizen deterred a
crime -
it's shameful that he went on a crime spree of his own, I agree, but
that
doesn't alter the fact that private gun ownership _does_ deter crime.
In fact,
if the owner of the big pink pimpmobile had caught Alex in the act, he
should
have shot Alex's kneecaps off.
Be careful what you ask for! ;-)
Thanks,
Rich

> College student shoots home invader, saves 10 lives
The Atlanta Journal didn't mention college students. It's a vague term
that could mean there were one or two at the gathering who had dropped
out or taken a couple of courses. The Iranians who held Americans
hostage at the embassy called themselves students.
The nearest campus, Atlanta Technical College, is six miles away.

College Park is a city, named more than a century ago, when there was a
college there.
They "burst in" through the patio door about 2:54 AM on a Sunday
morning. If it was closed, "burst in" presumably meant sliding it open.
With ten people in the apartment on a May night, it may have been open.
Calvin Lavant, the man who was killed, was of college age and lived in
an apartment in the same complex. It's private real estate and doesn't
look like a slum. Did he really intend to rob and murder a large group
next door to his home? Or did somebody at the party invite him by cell
phone?
He died a few steps from the apartment after saying, "Someone help me.
Call the police. Somebody call the police." Wouldn't a fleeing felon
have asked instead for an ambulance?

No witness spoke to the newspaper. Only one, the tenant, spoke to the
TV reporter. The reporter kept saying "apparently," not what the
witness had actually seen.
However, the witness said that after Lavant took the women into the
bedroom, the intruders "started counting bullets." "The other guy asked
how many (bullets) he had. He said he had enough."
So the put on masks and take wallets and cell phones, but the don't know
if they have ten bullets between them? And the idea of shooting
everybody occurs only as an afterthought? When the other guy simply
says he has enough, is he the only one armed?
If the tenant witnessed it, Lavant must have left the women alone to
discuss ammunition with his friend. Did he make the women promise not
to escape through the ground-floor window that he allegedly jumped
through a minute later?

I see. One of the intruders likes ladies, and the other finds gentlemen
sexier. They split the group up so they won't rape the wrong sex.
Armed or not, how does the only rapist in the room make all the other
adults behave as they await their turn?

Why have a backpack at a birthday party at 3 AM? In GA, you have to
have a license to carry a gun in a backpack, and it has to be in a
holster. If he carried a concealed weapon for safety, wouldn't it be on
his body?
With an armed robber watching, would he really be able to go to his back
pack, remove the holster, take the gun from the holster, and fire (but
miss)? And the intruder doesn't fire back?

The TV reporter quoted the tenant a little differently. "Apparently the
guy was getting ready to rape his girlfriend. So he told the girls to
get down and he started shooting. The guy jumped out of the window."
What does "preparing" mean? If his pants were around his ankles, he
couldn't have jumped out the window and run away. After hearing shots,
wouldn't he have shot the boyfriend as soon as he opened the door? If
he had been armed and masked, wouldn't a weapon and mask have been found?
>
> One of the female students was injured during the exchange, but

>
The TV report said she was shot several times. Of all the women at the
party, the shooter's girlfriend is the one Lavant allegedly prepares to
rape. She and the others waited patiently when he went out do count
bullets? Then the guy who thought he was her boyfriend shot them both.
A couple of days later, the Cordele newspaper said Cordele police had
picked up somebody suspected of being the other intruder. That was nine
months ago. If there have been no follow-up reports of such a
sensational story, I'd say the suspect was released and attorneys for
the so-called college students want sleeping dogs to lie.
How about... By 3 AM, a party guest is pretty drunk because his
girlfriend is leaving him. Thanks to lax gun control, he has a brought
a gun in a backpack. The new boy lives next door. The drunk phones
and invites the couple over. He shoots them both. Nobody knew he had a
gun, and nobody dares squeal, so they settle on a masked-terrorist theme.
According to several news stories it isn't the first time she killed
someone. She was a suspect when her brother was killed, but the entire
file about her and that crime are missing.
BTW, i'm surprised she didn't get tenure. She's violent & insane,
after all.

So, you're uset that you can't own a gun, or find a wife?
You just told us more about you than you wanted us to know.

Asking for the police makes no sense at all. You brought up a lot of
good points.
Youtube has the TV interview with the tenant. It looks as if the
reporter confronted him on the sidewalk. It's hot enough that the
reporter wears a tie with no coat, yet the tenant keeps his face
somewhat concealed under a hood. Between the hood and the horn-rimmed
glasses, I might not recognize him if I saw him again.
Each time he speaks, he gazes down so all you see of his eyes are the
lids. He speaks in a couple of quick sentences at a time, as if
rehearsed. Each time he speaks, he turns his head back and forth as if
saying "no." Isn't that considered a telltale sign of lying?
"Apparently his intent was to rape and murder us all." I heard it from
the horses mouth. He's not telling us what he saw but the scenario he
wants us to imagine.
The reporter asks if he knew the suspect lived next door. The tenant
tips up his head and, with lots of inflection, asks, "WHAT????" The
reporter repeats the news. The tenant gazes down again and says, "Oh man!"
The reporter says the tenant then told him the gunmen told him they had
been watching him "and now he knows how."
The tenant completely loses credibility here. When a next-door neighbor
is shot at a party, won't police look for a connection to somebody
there? Won't they tell the tenant the dead man lived next door? This
tenant even told police the masked men told him they had been watching
him. Are we to believe the police didn't tell him he lived next door?
The reporter said Lavant died of wounds to his face and arm. Did he
really climb out a window wounded that way?
The tenant wouldn't have planned a murder in his apartment, but a host
may aid in a cover-up to avoid being implicated in another crime. Are
date-rape drugs still popular among college guys? A birthday party
would be a way to get the victims to the apartment and to have them come
with guys they might not otherwise date.
By 3 AM, perhaps the only ones there were unconscious victims, perps
waiting to take them home, and the host. If they told police there were
ten, they may have said there were friends of friends, whose last names
they didn't know, who left after the shooting.
One thing the perps want to do is go through the girls' purses, and
that's why the cops find the girls on beds and their open purses in the
living room. One or two of the perps want to use the occasion to kill a
girlfriend and her secret boyfriend, who has moved in next door. So
they text him with her phone. When he appears, one shoots him in the
face and arm at the patio door, and he flees without the obstacle of
climbing out a window. The shooter or a friend shoots the unconscious
girlfriend and breaks the window. In their mind, they have executed a
couple guilty of adultery, as Moses and rap stars commanded.
The tenant has to go along with the coverup because using those drugs is
a felony. The parents of the perps call their lawyers. The coverup is
easy because everybody loves the idea of shooting a young black male
criminal.

Psych testing for gun ownership could have made all the difference to
three dead biology professors. The moment when Amy Bishop shot her
brother came back, 24 years in the future, to the University of
Alabama's Huntsville campus.
And now I see more stories about her.

He's not man enough to pick up a gun. that's why he used to shovel
horse shit out of barns.
"Linked to," "suspect," etc. etc. might have suggested she was a
dangerous person. Or it might merely suggest she had acquaintance with
some less than savory people. Her brother's death was treated as an
accident.
Accidents happen and/or murders get treated as accidents sometimes.
Now exactly what psychological test would have predicted she might shoot
colleagues in what was apparently a tenure dispute?
Someone may have dropped the proverbial ball with regard to her violent
proclivities, but it's far too late now for any second guessing.
Oh, and the gun in neither case, the professor or the partygoer, did one
damned thing: People did something _using_ a gun, a gun neither you, I
nor any other entity could have prevented them having if either was
determined to have one.
Sorry, freedom is dangerous and expensive. Life is like that, guns or
none.
Stop by and find out whether you eat horseshit or lead, asswipe.
"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and
law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own
conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the
law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the
lawless will allow... For society does not control crime, ever, by
forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected
behavior of criminals. Society controls crime by forcing the criminals
to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of the law-abiding."

Right. To do a particular job, you often need a particular tool.

Agreed. We need to do better.
LOL...and which one of us is ranting and foaming at their conservative

Psych testing would likely prevented you from owning a gun...and your
family and neighbors would be safer because of it.

It also causes society to ask the question..."How did this crazy
conservative get a gun?"

Psych testing could be a part of the process of buying a gun.
You take a drivers test and must meet certain medical requirements.
If you are a pilot, you take a test and must pass a physical.
Getting and passing a psych test could be part of the process.
FWIW...I love guns and have a significant number of them.
To me they are just one more specialized tool.
The continued misuse of guns by those who should not have them in the
first place places the rights of responsible gun owners in jepordy.

I'd read that date-rape drugs were popular but didn't know much about
them. Now I see. They are not intended to cause loss of consciousness
but to make a person unable to resist and cause amnesia.
There are three common ones. Rohypnol is so popular it has 19
nicknames. It was outlawed in America, but a perp can tell a Mexican
pharmacist he has trouble sleeping.
GHB has 20 nicknames. It's prescribed for narcolepsy. It can be made
in a home lab, which produces a risky product.
Ketamine is sold as an anesthetic. Sometimes it's stolen from
veterinarians for use as a date-rape drug.
When college guys use these drugs at a small gathering, more than one
may take advantage of a victim. They may engage in other abuse, such as
writing on her face. If she is later told it was consensual, she will
have no memory otherwise.
If the girl who was shot was still at a birthday party at 2:54 AM, I
wonder if she had been drugged and passed out. As time went by, the
gentlemen may have feared that she would die without medical treatment.
But if they took her to a hospital, it would be found that she had been
drugged and violated. Her date and the host could be facing years in
prison.
If the gentlemen had been drinking, shooting her and blaming a masked
rapist may have seemed like a good way to stay out of prison. After
all, if she'd been brought there as a sex toy, she was not dear to their
hearts.
The tenant may have chosen Lavant (his neighbor) for the scapegoat
because he was new in town. That would make it easy for local people to
believe he was a masked, armed hoodlum even if no mask or weapon was found.
Any guys who had participated in or witnessed the rape of drugged women
that night would go along with the story to stay out of trouble. If any
women present had been drugged, they wouldn't remember if the story was
false.

Hey Idiot, she was a lib, she didn't buy the gun like normal people do.
Chances are good that she already had some history that would prevent her
from making a legal purchase. She got her gun the lib way, and
unfortunately, had it pointed backwards in typical lib fashion.

Why easily startled people should not be trusted with guns?
You seem to be making giant leaps of logic, probably trying to pull my
leg.
The referenced "study" involved 46 people, hardly enough to come to
any conclusions.
i
A guest shot the next-door neighbor, who had no gun or mask and died
repeatedly asking somebody to call the police. Occam's razor says he
was murdered. Occam's razor says the shooter and his associates had
reason to lie.
The report came from a few questions to a single witness who partially
concealed his face with a hood and glasses on a hot day, looked down and
shook his head "no" when he spoke, and said as little as possible.
He said apparently one intruder intended to rape the men in one room
while the other raped the women in the other room.
He said the women were left alone in the ground-floor bedroom while the
gunmen got together to count bullets and discuss the possibility of a
massacre.
He said after a guest opened a backpack and removed a gun, the gunman
who was watching him fled without firing a shot.
He said the murder victim climbed through a window after being mortally
wounded in the face and hand.
The day after the murder, the name and address of the victim appeared in
the newspaper. Four days after the murder, the witness expressed shock
when the reporter told him.
Maybe you can figure out how the report could be true, but it's too
Byzantine for me.
