So.....you know how you all are bitching about the guy in Baton Rouge, the sex offender felon with the illegal, concealed gun...



(by the way, only felons with illegal guns seem to be supported by you anti gunners...since he is the only one you have defended for carrying an illegal gun)

A suspect in court grabbed an officers gun and murdered 3 people....at least until the story is clarrified..........

“The person had shot two bailiffs, they’re both deceased, and shot a deputy sheriff who is at the hospital right now being treated in an emergency room,” confirmed Berrien County Sheriff Paul Bailey. A civilian was also transported from the courthouse who is listed in stable condition at the hospital.

A county commissioner told a reporter from South Bend, IN the suspect had ‘grabbed the gun of one of the deputy and killed him’.

After further investigation from the crime scene techs, Sheriff Paul Bailey said they have learned that the suspect was handcuffed in the front.

During his transport, police say a fight broke out between the suspect - 45-year-old Larry Gordon - and Deputy James Atterbury, 41. Gordon was able to remove the deputy's weapon and began firing.

Police say Gordon, who was in court on domestic violence and criminal sexual conduct charges, shot and killed two deputies - 61-year-old Joseph Zangaro and 63-year-old Ronald Kienzle.

Murders Jump Amid Rise in Violent Crime...

US Murders Jump Amid Rise in Violent Crime
September 25, 2017 | WASHINGTON — The number of homicides in the United States jumped for a second year in a row last year amid an increase in overall violent crime in the country, according to the FBI's annual crime statistics released Monday.

There were an estimated 17,250 murders in the U.S. in 2016, up 8.6 percent over 2015 and more than 20 percent higher than the 2014 levels, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting data. The murder rate also rose, from 4.9 to 5.3 per 100,000 residents. The spikes, the largest for a two-year period since U.S. crime rates peaked in 1991, raised questions about whether the United States is in the midst of a fresh violent crime spree after nearly two decades of declines.

While overall violent crimes such as murder and aggravated assault remain low by historic standards, the Department of Justice said the FBI report "reaffirms that the worrying violent crime increase that began in 2015 after many years of decline was not an isolated incident." The FBI's closely watched report tallies four categories of violent crime — murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault. The report showed that overall violent crimes increased by 4.1 percent in 2016, after rising by 3.3 percent in 2015.

Increases across the U.S.

The increases in violent crime were seen across much of the country, with cities large and small reporting rises. Approximately 70 percent of American cities with at least 20 murders in 2014 reported increases during the two-year period, said Jeff Asher, a New Orleans-based crime analyst. "It suggests that it is a national trend and not just a thing we can blame on Chicago or something we can blame on Baltimore," Asher said. "It is happening in a lot of American cities." However, Asher noted that violent crime remains "extremely geographically isolated."

In the past two years, for example, Chicago and Baltimore, the country's two most violent cities, accounted for 15 percent of the increase in the number of murders in the country. Last year, the number of murders in Chicago jumped to 765 from 478 the year before, accounting for 22 percent of the overall increase in U.S. homicides. Half of the increase in Chicago came from just five neighborhoods in the city, said John Pfaff, a Fordham University law professor and statistician. "There are five neighborhoods in Chicago with 9 percent of the city's population that explains 10 percent of the national increase in murder," Pfaff said.

Fresh wave of crime?
