A tragic and preventable incident occurred in New Mexico. America lost another good guy and two villainous, sub-human mongrels got away with murder. What we need to consider are mistakes made and, like the FAA, how we can prevent a similar “crash” in the future.

During the “Quiet Time” segment from SilencerShop.com, the Professor has two books to recommend. Book one is for every gun carrier or person who owns a gun for self-protection. The second book is for advanced students.

From buzzpo.com:
“A man who was a gun owner and concealed carrier was stabbed to death in his driveway on Saturday night after investigating why dogs were barking.

William McKinley, a 55 year-old home remodeler, was awakened around 5 a.m. He went outside to investigate, but he never came back in.

Albuquerque police officer Simon Drobik said McKinley confronted two thieves attempting to break into his truck, and at least one of them stabbed him multiple times.

“It appears that it was an auto burglary in progress that progressed from a property crime to a violent crime. A good man was viciously attacked by what I can only describe as a predator,” officer Drobik stated.

McKinley was a gun owner, concealed carry permit holder and a religious man who ran a bible study group out of his home.

When paramedics arrived at the 1500 block of Soplo Road SE, they found McKinley’s father-in-law sitting on his chest in an attempt to slow the profuse bleeding. They transported him to an emergency department, but sadly, it was too late.

Many concealed carriers are guilty of not carrying in their homes. After all, our ‘castle’ should be our sanctuary, right? Some gun owners might argue, ‘This could never happen to me,’ or ‘carrying a gun in your own home is something done by someone who’s paranoid!’

Most likely Mr. McKinley thought that as well. If only he was ‘properly prepared’ when he walked outside, it would’ve likely been some scumbags blood spilled instead of his.

Officer Drobik said that before McKinley passed away, he told police that two men tried to break into his truck and fled in a dark colored jeep. As of this writing, both suspects remain at large.“
