Two men tried to rob a jewelry store in a mall in San Antonio, Texas.<\/p>\n

What could possibly go wrong? Accused mall shooter Jason Matthew Prieto.<\/p><\/div>\n

That’s when a second Good Samaritan – a good guy with a carry permit and a gun – intervened, shooting one suspect and the other one fleeing like the prison shower-room bitch he no doubt is.<\/p>\n

The suspects – including Jason Matthew Prieto, shown above, who is alleged to have fled the scene but wound up crashing his car – are up for capital murder. \u00a0Much as I oppose the death penalty, I doubt I’ll be found protesting if the State of Texas ever does end up executing them (should they be found guilty).<\/p>\n
