Wow, that is pretty badass. Someone get that guy a Gran Torino.

Battlefield America!!!

USA! USA! USA!

If I am planning a robbery and this guy shows up:



I'm changing my plans.

Sgt Otter: A 29-year-old Lieutenant Colonel? WTF?

From the comments: "I know Lt Col Trenker and he's 48. He's spent 29 years in the Marine Corps. He's an incredible man, a hero, and a dang fine Marine to have served with. Sir, so glad you are going to be alright. Oohrah Sir!!"

I guess you could say he is 29 in marine core soldier years.

Surely he can do better than this dog

And this is why you don't mess with the Marines.

Did it say he took his kids with him to some random jewelry sale and then fought the crooks? Dude, priorities.

Oh, TFA, you disappoint me.

Here I was, thinking he plugged the wounds with the fingers of the perps.

But the gold chain was so attractive!

And with the gun, they figured the odds were that they'd be successful!

Here's a question for you, kids? Who picks a fight with a Marine?

Apparently it's black kids. Even the retards know they can't use their super strength to beat a Marine.

/answer used to be that nobody picked a fight with Uncle Sam's Misguided Children except the terrurists.

Rambino:

FTFY, moran :P And a Marine is a Marine, never a "soldier." Remember that and you'll avoid yourself an asswhooping someday.


Also, from TFA: "Officers responding to the shooting found 20-year-olds James Flournoy and Jeff Steele close to the scene. Both men remain in custody without bond and face attempted murder charges."
LOL Doesn't say they were involved, just nearby. And obviously guilty.

I'm sorry does 'badass' mean dumb as fark?

you went to an apartment complex to sell the jewelery?

how about you meet in front of the local police station to sell the jewelery?
are you farking retarded?

oh right, you're a Marine...

starsrift: Oh, TFA, you disappoint me.

Would you want their fingers in your holes?

why didnt he just use his giant balls? too big i guess...

Oh man, Redguard never fail to show poor judgement.

skinink: I looked at the pictures in the story of the victim and the perps, and have assumed that this thread will shortly turn into Freeper Lite with all the Farkers who like this kind of story.


I know.

Wouldn't it be cool if we had a story where some white guy was robbing black guys?

I mean just once?

Just putting your finger into the flesh part of the wound wouldn't stop anything. He likely would have survived either way, which is awesome.

Well, what can I say? I have good taste.

I'm so tired of them, yes, "them," we all know who "they" are.

It is cultural, it's never addressed, it will never change until is it is.

The truth is taboo! Facts are to be hidden, reality ignored, DO NOT CROSS THAT STREET!!!

Well, to be fair.... they ARE black....


Yeah, I'll bet the Marine Corps dude described the perps as tall, strawberry-blondes with freckles.

But the racist cops arrested some innocent black guys anyway.

styckx: He's surprised? He lives in Florida. Craigslist used to sell gold chains.. Agreed to exchange said chain at an apartment complex which looks to be inhabited by fine upstanding citizens, and then chased after them... Yeah... There really is no surprise here.. The odds were working against him.. I wouldn't agree to swap bibles sold on craigslist in Florida, let alone gold chains..

Well, that's why he joined the marine core instead of the air force. I mean, marine guys are tough and all, but not, you know, all that, um...

yeah.

While I wish him a speedy recovery this sounds like it was almost a Darwin.

No, I'm pretty sure you are wrong. It's "marine core," and they are most definitely soldiers. So marine core soldiers it is.

Jeez, people these days. Don't know anything.

Pretty much this. Florida is a gated community hellhole. Nice place to visit, but there's no reason imaginable to live there 24/7.

Tourist/super rich on the coast
Rich right along 1A
Poor 1A to the tracks
over the tracks it's pure ghetto
Then you go 25 miles and it's either swamp, orange orchards or ranch.

And the fact that it's one gigantic strip-mall.

We really should add "Craigslist" next to "Ohio" and "Waffle House" on the list of things that need their own tags.

Tourney3p0: Just putting your finger into the flesh part of the wound wouldn't stop anything. He likely would have survived either way, which is awesome.

Putting fingers in bulletholes is just a way to fark things up more. Just apply pressure on the wound and let the doctors do the invasive shiat.

And somehow they never post in the threads with white perps to declare that "oops, I thought they would be black, but I now see that I was wrong. My bad."

Here are some words for y'all racist turds to look up: "selective sampling" - "saliency" - "out-group bias" - "cognitive dissonance"

Oxymoron?

Why do you hate black people?

FTFA: 'I put my fingers in the holes to stop the bleeding and ran back to the truck and told my kids I had been shot, but not to worry.'

Holy balls! What, is he made of liquid metal or something? Jeez, those morons picked the wrong guy to fark with.

LOL Doesn't say they were involved, just nearby. And obviously guilty.

It shouldn't be hard to establish. A) Did they have the necklace or was it found nearby? B) Did they have a gun or was one found nearby? C) If either a gun or chain was found, were there fingerprints or DNA on it? D) Does either of them have gunshot residue on them? E) Does either of them have a cell that was used in setting up the meet?

If these are the right guys, they didn't have the opportunity to ditch the evidence or clean up themselves or the gun/necklace, so guilt should be easy to establish. If it wasn't them, a defense attorney will be able to note the lack of all the above and get the case thrown out or win an acquittal.

My guess is the cops will just ask the Marine Lt. Colonel, "Are these the guys that tried to murder the shiat out of you?" and he'll either say yes or no, and they'll go from there.

If they are innocent, I hope that they are acquitted.

But meanwhile the real perps (who obviously match a similar description) will be back on craigslist makin' deals.
