A 23-year-old man had been out of prison for barely two months when authorities said he pulled out two handguns during a fight at a Ridgeville home and sparked an exchange of gunfire that ultimately led to his death.
A man who returned fire and killed 23-year-old Ishmel Taquan Rivers on Sunday was acting in self-defense, according to initial evidence gathered by the Berkeley County Sheriff's Office. Rivers, who died shortly after at Trident Medical Center, recently completed a prison term for an involuntary manslaughter conviction tied to a 2012 shooting, state records show. |

How many future innocent lives will now saved by this young criminal's demise? Bet those won't show up in any anti-gunners statistics. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
