Armed hero saves 4 lives during home invasion robbery

There’s nothing like a justifiable homicide to bring out the bigotry resting in the heart of Old Media reporters.
Last week, Demario Brown, on the run from police, held up two women at gunpoint and forced them into the house they were visiting, and then held two additional victims at gunpoint while demanding money he claimed was stolen from him. Then things began to go wrong for Mr. Brown as one of the victims, Timothy King, fought back with his own gun. In the exchange of fire, Mr. Brown was fatally wounded, ran out of the house and collapsed a short distance away.
Even though one article’s title was accurately stated as “Robbery suspect shot dead by intended victim,” North Charleston’s Live 5 News still chose the “concerned neighbor” gambit to condemn the shooting:
"Just moved here. This is the welcome North Charleston gives us," said Donnell Dunlap who witnessed the shooting…
Something like that shouldn't happen around here. It ain't right."
Donnell Dunlap says the shooting has left him no choice, but to pack up and move. "We need to get a hold of the community, a hold of the community. Other than that, stuff like this is gonna happen every day in front of our kids."
Mr. Dunlap does not appear on the police report as a material witness. However, Live 5 News used Mr. Dunlap as their spokesman to promote the message that an armed citizen defending people’s lives “ain’t right.” Dunlap got his 15 seconds of fame and Live 5 News got to publish an anti-self-defense op/ed under the guise of reporting.
The Post and Courier coverage was the opposite: intentionally misleading title–“Gunfire leaves 1 dead”–and decent interview of a victim:
Lakeasha Williams, the witness, said she and her 7-month-old daughter stopped outside of 2693 Ranger Drive to pick up her co-worker and the co-worker's daughter on their way to daycare and their jobs.
As they buckled the friend's child into the car, a man wearing a white T-shirt around his face appeared from behind the house and pointed a gun at them.
Williams said the man trained the gun on her co-worker and threatened to shoot her if the couple didn't give him the money that he said had been stolen from him.
After interviewing North Charleston Police Department spokesman Spencer Pryor and reviewing the incident reports he sent, certain facts were either ignored or obfuscated by Old Media:
· Brown invaded the resident’s house and held four people at gunpoint, and made threats to shoot them, well within legal guidelines for using deadly force in defense of self and others.
· The initial shots occurred inside the home, which is where Brown received his fatal wound.
· Mr. King, the defender, does not face any charges whatsoever. Therefore, Brown’s allegations that money was stolen from him appear to be nothing more than his way to justify terrorizing at least 6 people.
The justifiable homicide conclusion was weakly reported by the Post and Courier in a two-paragraph notice. It seems good news is not worth the same effort as an article leading with “Gunfire leaves 1 dead.”
There is one more piece in this puzzle, which Old Media chose to ignore. Less than 7 hours before the robbery, Demario Brown was the subject of a traffic stop by the North Charleston Police Department. Seeing Brown unable to drive on the right side of the road, an officer attempted to pull him over, but Brown fled in his car. Eventually, Brown ran from the car on foot and escaped. Returning to the vehicle, the original officer found a loaded revolver, a bag of marijuana, and a social security card for Demario Brown. The officer was able to identify Brown via a photo from the Charleston County Detention Center. Brown was also driving with a suspended license.
Plans to prey upon defenseless women ended abruptly for a violent criminal with a history of lawlessness. A morning of terror ended abruptly when one law-abiding citizen exercised his civil right of self-defense.
