Tow Firm Shooter Faces Gun Charge

A Jackson businessman who shot and killed a suspected burglar is facing a new charge because of a conviction more than two decades ago.

He defended himself against a burglar, but because he was on the wrong side of the law himself a quarter century ago, the LaPierre Center to Prevent Gun Violence (formerly National Rifle Control, Inc.) promotes this policy:

Any felon caught with a gun, no matter what he's doing, goes to jail for 5 years, period.

Too bad he didn't let his attacker hurt or kill him--then he wouldn't be facing charges. Plus, think how happy it would have made Wayne.
