All those people who are anti gun and claim gun is not needed to protect one's home has an ally in Maryland. Assistant State’s Attorney Glen Neubauer has decided to charge Matthew Pinkerton, 34 a tech Sargent in the air force with a number of charges concerning the shooting death of Kendall Green. Evidently, when Kendall Green kicked in Pinkerton's door after be told to leave, then charging Pinkerton who fired and hit Green once. Kendall continued to advance on Pinkerton who fired a second shoot that proved fatal. quote:
Attorney: Glen Burnie shooting was self-defense A Glen Burnie man acted in self-defense when he shot and killed another man he suspected of having an affair with his wife, his attorney said Monday. At a bail hearing for Matthew Pinkerton, 34, attorney Peter O’Neill said the victim, Kendall Green, broke into Pinkerton’s home on Arbor Drive just before 2 a.m. Sunday after being told repeatedly to leave. Green, also of Glen Burnie, acted aggressively and motioned toward his waistband as if he had a weapon, O’Neill said. Pinkerton shot Green once in the chest from 10 to 15 feet away, but Green continued to advance toward him, his wife Jessica and two friends who were at the house, O’Neill said. That’s when Pinkerton shot him again. He died at the scene. Source Now recently there have been many stories of shootings, covered by the media, raising more cries for "gun control" and yet this story was overlooked. I am sure that the gun control and gun ban supporters will be sure to attack Pinkerton as acting rashly in his attempt to stop the intruder, they might even suggest as the assistant state prosecutor did that instead of grabbing a gun and shooting a man charging him from 15 feet away, he should have called 911. I am equally sure that someone is going to claim that the deceased's intentions were unknown at the time of the incident. At this point, the assistant state prosecutor should be removed from office and stripped of his law license for his desire to pursue this case.
