Why I live in Arizona

Notice the officer's commentary.  No whinging about how the young man should have waited for the Proper Authorities, or how the Evil Gun made him shoot a Poor Underpriveleged Minority Who Probably Loves Puppies And Farts Rainbows.

"The police and indeed our community does not ever want to see a situation where a teenager of that age has to take a weapon to protect his family ... but this young man did exactly what he should have done," he said. "I'm not sure he gave full thought about what he had to do. He just acted."

Emphasis mine.  Well done, young man!  And to those of you who may be contemplating criminal activity in the Sovereign State of Arizona...think twice, punks.  Because this is how we roll--we defend our person and property by any and all necessary means.  And our LEO's have our back in that regard.

Go rob Kalifornians.  It's a lot safer.
