So I recieved a call from my mother this morning telling me that my little brother (19) was robbed at gun point while walking to the king soopers (grocery store) down the street from my parents house. There were three guys that approached him, one pulled a gun while the other two patted him down. They took his money but left his cell phone and wallet. The Aurora police dept found them about an hour later. All are above 18 according to police. I got fire running through my veins right now I am so irritated. I am afraid that they have "friends" because they told him if he called the cops they would send someone to kill my brother. All this over 23 bucks. I hope thye convict these a-holes. I could have lost a brother last night

damn man thats tough.. I just lost a great friend. play basketball with him all the time you may have seen it on the news.. tubby smiths nephew.. he was 19 and stabbed to death at a party in boston. I swear peoples morals are rediculous. I feel for your brother. just stick up for him. they will go down for a while. that is a felony offense.. they had a weapon. tough time right now.. people are crazy. i just hope you dont ever get ahold of one of them cause i know you would properly take care of business in your own way...

Wow. I'm with you about the sad state of affairs currently. People just don't give two craps about other people anymore it seems, and with money being the way it is, I can only see it getting worse
I'm glad your brother is OK. Just don't lower yourself to their level.

Don't be afraid...
Just be ready to arm yourself if necessary

I spoke with my mother and told her that he will be staying with me for the next couple of days. I live in a 5 bedroom house with two open rooms. Plenty of room for him to stay as long as he wants. I am plenty armed with couple of AR15s, Colt 45, and one hefty 12 guage semi automatic Benelli.

This is why I am in favor of gun ownership, in the hands of law-abiding citizens.

Sometimes I ask myself why I fight for this country with all the retards in it but then on the other hand there are so many good people doing the right thing it makes me proud.
Hopefully nothing goes down with your brother in the next few weeks - my guess is they just told him that so they could get away easier. I don't have a little brother but if someone shot my older brother I would end up in jail
