Feel Good Story

Feel good stories like this just choke me up. Would bring tears to a glass eye!

Texas justice is swift. Don’t mess with Texas!
"Out in the West Texas town of El Paso ..."
Three armed felons crossed the US border and attempted to rob an off-duty El Paso police officer
dressed in civilian clothes while he stood in front of a bank. The plan was for two of them to grab his
backpack and toss it to an accomplice on a stolen motorcycle. However, the well-prepared police
officer shot all of them, killing two immediately. The third was shot in both arms and bled to death
before the ambulance arrived.

This is how much the US Taxpayer would have had to pay to prosecute these thugs:
· Arrest and detention for 1 night = $6,000
· Transportation for deportation back to Mexico the next day = $1000
· Air time for Obama to apologize in 30 minute speech = $25,007,000
What it actually cost:
· Four .40 rounds = $1.00
· Taxpayer savings = $25,006,999.00
Apparently They Picked The Wrong Man to Rob This Time. And There Won't Be A Next Time!
THE AVERAGE RESPONSE TIME FOR A 911 CALL IS 4 MINUTES.
THE AVERAGE RESPONSE TIME FOR A .40 S&W ROUND IS ABOUT 1200 FEET PER SECOND.
I LOVE TO READ STORIES LIKE THIS, WITH SUCH HAPPY ENDINGS.
