The Article postedeputies said Osilka didn't have his glasses, so he approached the man to try to identify him, and when he determined he didn't know him, the teen raised his hands and took an aggressive stance.

Osilka kicked Guthrie in his chest and struck him in the face with his hand while holding his handgun, according to the report. Guthrie started trying to push and strike Osilka, who then hit the teen several more times in the face and head, knocking him to the floor, according to the report.

Osilka held Guthrie down until the deputy arrived and arrested him.



Look at that mug shot!





Also, good for the cop for having the presence of mind to just kick his ass instead of shooting him.

What is served by not shooting this guy in the head? We should just wait until he has a murder or two under his belt?

Do people realize that simply expressing this sentiment is itself promoting problems?

Encouraging people to "kick someone's ass" instead of "shooting them" is encouraging victims... particularly victims of smaller size or older age... to try and subdue a threat rather than defend themselves effectively.

I'm not incapable of kicking some ass. But if there's some unidentified asshole who broke into my locked house while I'm in there with my wife and kids, the gun is gonna come out. Whomever it is will find themselves at gunpoint once I determine they are unknown and uninvited. Whether they get shot from that point forward totally depends on them freezing like a statue.

I'm not taking chances the asshole I've found himself has a gun or a knife. You guys can if you want, but frankly, that's pretty stupid.

Because you don't know how you do it.

If I have determine to pull out my gun, I will use it. I will take the time to make sure it is not a loved one, but as far as if he is standing like a statue or not... he's getting a bullet.

If someone is in your house uninvited, in the middle of the night, shoot them. Beat them within inches of their life. Make damn sure that they will be incapable or severely unwilling to try it a second time.

Keeping a gun in the house statistically makes you less safe and especially your children.

Why was he so close to the guy? He couldn't see him? oh boy, that's the safe play.

Theres no reason to let any enemy within six feet of you when you have a gun. Less than that and they can wrestle the gun away from you and use it on you.

Lets be honest here, the guy just wanted to beat up a robber, who deserved it. He probably had the kid against the wall and took a few free shots at him. Good thing he isn't a sociopath because those shots could have easily come from his gun and he'd have been completely justified.
