Massad Ayoob Interviews John Daub on His Shooting

Sunday, October 30th, 2016

Handgun expert Massad Ayoob interviews John Daub about his self-defense shooting from January of last year. If you’ve been following this blog regularly, then there’s not a whole lot (from the original incident to follow-ups to the grand jury no-billing Daub to Daub’s own account) that you haven’t read before, but Ayoob does his usual thorough job. However, here’s one tidbit I missed: Between the time of the shooting and the case being sent to the grand jury, the group mental health facility where Daub’s intruder lived “was shut down and surrendered its license.”

Hat tip: Stuff from Hsoi, naturally.

Belated News: Grand Jury No-Bills John Daub

Thursday, June 25th, 2015

I missed this good news when it came out on June 2, but a Travis County Grand Jury has declined to indict John Daub in the self-defense shooting death of a home intruder who turned out to be autistic.

And his blog, Stuff from Hsoi, is available again.

If You’re Wondering Why Stuff From Hsoi is Down…

Monday, January 5th, 2015

this news story should answer the question.

Short summary: John Daub, AKA Hsoi, had to fatally shoot a home invader who turned out to be autistic. It sounds like a justified shooting, but I’m sure one of the first things a defense attorney would say is “Take your gun blog down now.” Especially since he lives in Travis County.

(I don’t know Daub personally, but he’s on the blogroll, we follow each other on Twitter, and we both know the folks at KR Training.)

Adding Stuff from Hsoi to the Blogroll

Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

A new addition to the gun blog list is Stuff from Hsoi.

I first came across his blog with a link to this unnerving account of a “flash mob,” (i.e., a gang of black teenagers) smashing windows and looting cars in a suburban cul-de-sac in north Austin.

Doing another search today, I found out that Hsoi is employed my friend Karl Rehn at KRTraining, and that gives me a handy excuse to put him on the list.
