Pennsylvania strikes again

Deputy Police Commissioner Frank Vanore said it was still unclear Tuesday what led
to the argument between the two men, but that they had “some kind of previous history,”
and when they crossed paths on the street, an argument followed.

Brokenbough then brandished his gun, which he was not licensed to carry, Vanore said,
and the younger man pulled out his legally registered firearm and shot Brokenbough once
in the armpit.

Police said the 22-year-old, whom they did not identify, told them he acted in self-defense.

Eddie Brokenbough was struggling to make ends meet.

The 46-year-old, whom relatives described as a dedicated father of 10, experienced difficulties
finding a good-paying job because, like many Philadelphians, he had a criminal record.

To supplement his income as a construction flagger, Brokenbough sometimes worked as a
political canvasser, knocking on doors for organizations trying to get out the vote.

On Monday, Brokenbough was fatally shot while canvassing for the progressive group One PA
by another canvasser from the same organization after the two men had an altercation.

So, 46, father of 10  , criminal record, previous history with the 22 year old, illegally carrying, and brandished his gun.

And they want to make a point about gun control?  This worked out exactly how it was supposed to.  A criminal illegally carrying a gun threatened a law abiding gun carrier; the person threatened used his gun to stop the threat and successfully defended himself.

I don't see where gun control could have done anything better.  The criminal would have still been able to be illegally armed, but more laws may have prevented the 22 yr old from defending himself.

I'm curious what "history" a 22 yr old and 46 yr old might have that lead to such a heated argument.  Was he banging one (or more) of the man's 10 kids?
