ATLANTA — A former Marine (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Marine');) used a pocket knife to fend off a group of would-be robbers (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('robbers');), killing one and wounding another, police said.
Thomas Autry, who authorities said will not be charged, had been walking home from his job waiting tables Monday night when four people got out of a car and chased him, Atlanta police detective Danny Stephens said.
One of the attackers had a shotgun and another had a pistol, Stephens said.
The suspects caught up with Autry, who yelled for help and pulled a knife out of his backpack. He kicked the shotgun (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('shotgun');) out of one of the attacker's hands and stabbed both a 17-year-old girl who jumped on him and a man who also attacked him.
The suspects fled in their car but police found them later at a hospital where the girl was pronounced dead. The man stabbed in the incident was in critical condition, Stephens said.

Moral: don't **** with a Marine.

Mental note: Do not attack a Marine.

I f'in hate teenagers these days (which is really sad because it's only been 3 years since I was a teen). None of them have any respect for anyone. I was robbed at gunpoint a few years back and when they caught the guys, none of them were over 18...I can't even go to the Wal Mart down the road from my house because of the obnoxious morons that hang out in the parking lot out there. We've almost been run over several times (with the baby in hand) because these idiots don't want to stop at a crosswalk - even when you're already crossing...

Awesome job by the Marine.

We should all carry gun's just in case we get mad.

Ohhh no you don't. This is a thread about how much marines kick ***. No gun law debate here.

Marines kick ***. Discuss.

[1stTimeCaller]

An Army National Guardsman would've killed all four.

just sayin' ;)

[soonerbrat]

my cousin, a former marine and now police officer, once told me that he knows more ways to kill me than I know how to die.

he would never kill me of course, but the point was made.

[soonerbrat]

oh wait...once a marine, always a marine, right? sorry about the "former" comment.

[Scott D]

I think the only 'former' marine is one who is cold in the ground...usmc-sooner has more info on that than me.

[NormanPride]

I would bet those guys are just Marining it up in Heaven, actually. :D

Marines kick ***. Discuss.

A Navy buddy of mine used to tell me stories of a bar in San Diego. Every few months or so (as he tells it), a bunch of gung-ho newly minted Marines fresh off of basic would come in and start trouble, because, as you know, Marines are bad-***.

Every so often, they'd start trouble at the table with the newly minted SEALs, who also train in SD. (well, more or less)

Hilarity, of course, ensued. :D

[yermom]

they are all basically sailors anyway aren't they?

*ducks*

If the Army and the Navy Ever gaze on Heaven's scenes,

They will find the streets are guarded By United States Marines

someone give yermom an atomic wedgie:D

[Scott D]

[Vaevictis]

Also, according to my Navy buddy, they don't need Marines on the boats any more.

... because they let women on them now.

Dude, look at your avatar. If that's not enough to get the NSA worried about you, then nothing is.
