First, a little background. About 2-1/2 years ago I shot a young man
that was trying to brain me with a piece of galvanized pipe in
order to rob me in broad daylight. Thanks to a Springfield XD45
and a Speer 230gr Gold dot that didn't happen. The young man
was convicted, sentenced to 5 years (3 on probation and 2 in prison).
A friend of mine that knows the father of this young man told me
over the holidays that since leaving prison, after serving a whole
year, that the young man has turned his life around, renounced
drugs, got married and has been working steadily as an electrician
apprentice.
Maybe this fellow lived for a reason, I don't know. I'm just glad I
didn't kill him. I know he was very lucky. I fired center mass and
the round struck him just above and slightly left of his heart. He
could have just as easily died from the wound.
