Local Home Break In
Authorities this morning said a 16-year-old Knoxville boy was killed during a weekend home break-in that prompted a gun battle inside the residence.
Jamodd Mack died in the 2:24 a.m. Saturday break-in at 1304 Iredell Ave., said Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
Mack and another person allegedly forced their way into the home through a back door, DeBusk said. Inside the home, Mack, who was armed with a handgun, was fired upon by a man who was visiting the woman who lives in the house, DeBusk.
Well, his recidivism rate was reduced to zero.

And of course his death will be added to the yearly toll of “victims of gun violence” and “children killed by guns,” when in reality he was killed by his own bad decisions and victimization of other people.
Good riddance.

And here comes his family to tell us what a good person he was…

I don’t think the editor caught the mistake in this sentence.
“Inside the home, Mack, who was armed with a handgun, was fired upon by a man who was visiting the woman who lives in the house, [said] DeBusk.”

He truly is a good person now. No loss.

Damn, as an outlaw, he wasn’t even 1/43rd as good as he should have been. Wasn’t he supposed to take the gun of the visitor away and kill everybody else?
Did he miss that study? Or was he absent from liberal hysteria class that dayd?
