More slayings in Pr. George's, and police feel the heat.

Futur son in law p.g. sheriff's deputy, so more interested than usual in this. Fingers crossed.

i also try to follow the Baltimore metro homicides -- it's terrible. I wonder how many these people who pull the trigger have ever contemplated the finality of death and the pain of grieving of the survivors. :(

In the case of that justifiable homicide, from what i read in the article, it was a no-win situation. I've taken some training in home gun defense, and it sounds like they did exactly the right thing by first warning the attacker not to come in (they should also say that they had a gun as a further deterence, not sure if that happened).

Thanks for posting. So you're welcoming a deputy sheriff into your family soon? Congratulations on your child's wedding. :hi:

HI, shireen!!!

THIS wedding won't be for a while, tho; has to await other daughter's September wedding!
