Does This Look Like The Face Of The Baddest MOFO on the Planet?
WCPO – A suspected robber is dead after breaking in to a Boone County home early Monday morning. Three men broke into 92-year-old Earl Jones’ home in the 15000 block of Violet Road in Verona at about 2:40 a.m. and Jones shot one of the men as he was coming up the stairs of his basement. Jones is not facing charges for the shooting. Jones told officials that Monday morning’s incident was the third time his home has been robbed. “Somebody got into the basement, this is a full basement and I was on the bed fixing to go to bed,” Jones said. “And I’m very sensitive, I was in the military, you have to have good ears. And I heard something just as I sat down, ‘clonk, clonk, clonk,’ and I said well somebody is in the basement and he’s going to come upstairs. So I heard him when he was coming up the steps, I had the gun so I was sitting there when he opened the door.” “I’ve been robbed so much in the past five weeks, I said it’s going to have to be a message to the people. The only way you going to stop this is you [going to] have to leave one laying in the grass. That’s the only way you’re [going to] stop it,” Jones said.
Well Clint Eastwood just got put on notice by Earl Jones. I mean this is some straight up Gran Torino shit except real. Seriously there is a legitimate chance this is the best quote I’ve ever heard in my life.
“The only way you going to stop this is you going to have to leave one laying in the grass”
And that’s exactly what he did. It’s the difference between World War II Vets and everybody else on the planet. Like lots of people including myself like to talk trash and act tough. World War Vets don’t act tough. They are tough. Because when you dodged bullets on the beaches of Normandy and saw half your friends die serving this country there is no way you’re gonna let some punks rob your house. I would have hid under my bed. Earl Jones laid one out on the grass to send a message and didn’t even think twice about it. We’ll see if anybody robs his house again. America Fuck Yeah!
Remember when you thought michigan had a chance? hahahaha
This guy is straight up keepin it real, no messin around n I like it but I suspect a couple drive by shootings Comin his way soon
“i was on the bed fixing to go to bed” ..could only come from a 90 year old
Boone County West Virginia, nice.
he only way you going to stop this is you [going to] have to leave one laying in the grass ~~~~ bad ass as fuck, words to live by
“I blow a hole in your face, then I go in the house, and I sleep like a baby, you can count on that.”
Obama just lost a vote.
Good for him! The world needs more people like Mr. Jones here
“Jones told 9 News he got the gun from Walmart for $500.”

God Bless Walmart.
Greatest generation indeed.
Dixon how could you possibly know if the robber was a liberal?
unfortunately he forgot that the man coming up the stairs was the plumber that he had called after shitting up the pipes.
^^^Did he have a job? Highly unlikely. Did he therefore receive a government handout? Highly likely. Ergo, my friend britishteeth, it follows that this recently dispatched scum-bag, was, most likely, a liberal.
you may be a jew smut peddler, but you always respect the vets. nice blog prez
Hey Goddy77 – Boone County, KY – Quit trying to claim Earl Jones.
@britishteeth, these robbers are one of the core voting blocs supporting Obummer:
Dead people, union thugs, bums, welfare layabouts, FELONS, brainwashed college kids ie “the 99%”), wealthy elitists, illegal aliens.
AJBUK, WV it is.
Obama’s key constituents are typically people who believe the earth is more than 6,000 years old. Everything else is just window dressing.
You’re over thinking it Dixon. Obama lost a vote because all robbers are black
Damn I was 100% kidding, i just thought he was black
fuck.. my b dewitt.
God nothing like a little protected internet racism to brighten a day I’ll tell ya what guy.
Imagine if pres was black and jewish

Can’t even post a story about a badass war vet without it going political on this site anymore. I can’t wait til the election is over so you stupid political trolls will shut the fuck up. Spitting out facts n shit you pull off of fox news or msnbc, on a website made famous by college broads and dick jokes, trying to turn this shit into a political forum, you’re ruining the good name of this smut peddling website and you ought to be ashamed of yourselves.
@bucyk that Finnish bro is the all time war MVP, the Wayne Gretzky of War if you will.
Earl Jones needs to be the special guest speaker at the DNC. And @realist so basically everyone in America except old white rednecks and their inbred offspring? Gotcha sounds like a fantastic constituency the GOP has
aside from people from third world countries, WW II vets are pretty much the last people i’d ever fuck with. people that have been through realer shit than i could ever imagine, those are the wildest of wild cards.
great story!
My Gramps just died he was also 92 and also landed on Normandy. Would think he would handle the situation in the same manor. It really honestly warms my heart when Old Vets shoot scumbag thieves.
sidenote- my gramps survived a mortar shell (shrapnel in his ankle for his whole life, purple heart) a mortar that landed in his bunker, didn’t explode. And he was a premature baby that weighed 2 lbs, send him home and my great grandmother kept him in a shoebox and in the oven on WARM. greatest generation and its not even close.
@ilovebarstoolsports: ‘Nam Vets, too. Tough as fuck and pissed off about how they were treated (and rightly so).
Pres, this is the best quote you’ve heard in your life? How soon until we’re being pitched another shitty T Shirt with a shelf that expires before its even delivered.
I can see it already, a iron picture of the old guy, that saying on the back, a barstool logo and blackout tour dates. You know you’re thinking about it.
It’s good people like Earl Jones that make me forget about all the “pussification” stories. I will go to this mans funeral when that sad day comes.
damn, the cheat, that shit is crazy, especially the shoebox part. badass from birth. respect.
true that, harry…nothing like ducking bullets in the jungle and coming home to people saying it wasn’t a real war.
Obama actually gained a vote. Dead people were huge for him in 08.
Anonymous internet commenters that push their political agendas may be the lowest form of life on this planet. Go jerk off to some debate coverage and leave the Barstool Sports commenting to the bros.
^Amen
TheCheat, Mad propers to Gramps. I’m sure he was tough as nails, and as a Gen Y softie myself, I appreciate and am grateful for the sacrifice, but I think the 2 lb baby in the oven story may have been a bit of an exaggeration
ok,
he was 3 lbs.
shoebox, oven true story.
A+++++++. BRAVO! BRAVO! couldnt stop laughing at this one.
total power move. Earl Jones, I salute you
“The only way you going to stop this is you going to have to leave one laying in the grass” = AWESOME
