Way to go!!! I think this guy acted responsibly, calmly and with proper restraint. He waited until there was no doubt that he and his friends were in imminent danger of death before he decided to act with the proper force at hand, to end a possible massacre at worst, and a hostage situation at best.
The anti's out there should take note of this story, if they were in this young man's situation, would they have acted as he did, or would they have tried to rationalize the situation and come to a passive conclusion outcome? It was clear that this was not a social call, and these men were not there to sell Avon. They were there for one reason, to commit a crime!!! They came, they saw, they got their asses kicked.
I salute this young man, you did good son...you did good.

Right, it isn't so much the amount of those threatened that matters so much as body counts and the like. Had the good guy shot 10 bad guys, that WOULD be on national news in a heartbeat.
Simply put, hero stories are not nearly as exciting as mayhem stories. Hero stories play well on Oprah, but not the 6 o'clock news.
I wanted to adress everyones curiosity about why this hasnt made top news headlines. Im from atlanta, College park is firstly nowhere near a college. It is a small town down near our airport. It is in fact the compton of atlanta. when we turn the news on at night and see someone was shot it is generally in this area as it is a high crime/gang/drug environment. I have no idea what college the people involved attended but the nearest one(Ga state) is 20 miles away from college park. Also not sure why college park is named college park lol.
This is the reason I carry all the time and tend to stay away from areas I can not carry. This guy went to a friends party planning to have a good time.
This is why we carry all the time,
we carry to to be prepared,
we practice to be prepared,
we hope to never have to draw our weapons, but if we do we are prepared.

Kudos to the GG.
Compliance UNTIL you think bodily injury (rape, murder etc.), then it changes to OPPORTUNITY to neutralize threat(s). If you do too much second guessing; will they hurt us or not, can and probably will, get you hurt.
Cash can be replaced, credit cards cancelled, but my loved ones, my life and innocents are worth more that any BG's!!

I understand. I too like hero stories. Unfortunately, the media doesn't feel such stories capture the attention of their audience nearly as much. The problem seems to be that hero stories tend to return a situation back to the norm. Mayhem stories take the situation away from the norm and that is what is attention grabbing.

How do they come to there conclusions? Is there no basic logic in the general publics line of thinking?
Hmmpff!!!

I also love the whining on Digg about people "hijacking" the article to forward the "Pro-Gun" agenda, when the posts were essentially just praising the GG for a job well done... They seem to have no problems doing the same when it suits their purposes. The way they can twist even an inspiring story makes me want to :barf:
BTW: First post, been trolling for a while though...

I normally don't say things like this becuse I normally don't mean them, especially about joe burglar, but in this case I do: I'm glad that little Lavant bastard is dead. In my book, planning to murder and rape a bunch of innocent people puts you in the same category as Hitler, Herman Goering, bin Laden and the like; those kind of people deserve nothing other than to be removed from the earth as quickly as possible as they are the bane of humanity's existence.
This story is especially startling to me because I live in Georgia and I am a college student and I go out to parties and small little get togethers with friends occasionally. To think that someone would want to or even think about doing something like this to people just having a good time makes my blood boil.

I pretty much agree with the rest of you. If I'd been one of the women in that apartment, I'd have wanted the person with the gun to do exactly what this guy did. Don't escalate the situation as long as it was just a robbery. But once it became clear that they were going to shoot everybody, don't let the possibility of wounding me keep you from shooting them first.
If the bad guys hadn't been stopped, the wounded woman would probably have been dead.

I'm sorry if I missed it but do we know the fate of the ccp shooter? Do we know the outcome? Is there any link to any web based statement from the girl shot? Or anyone involved, for that matter? I'm interested in how this worked out legally and how it worked out for those involved mentally.
