Video: Homeowner Protects His Family, Shoots 3 Masked Intruders – Now Woke Parents Are Suing Him for $2 Million

In a brazen display of entitlement that flips justice on its head, the parents of three armed teens killed during an attempted armed robbery in 2019 are now suing the Georgia homeowner who defended his life and property—demanding a whopping $2 million in a civil suit that reeks of misplaced blame. This isn’t just an attack on one man’s right to self-defense; it’s a direct assault on the Second Amendment principles that allow law-abiding Americans to stand their ground against criminals who come knocking with guns drawn.

The nightmare unfolded before dawn on September 16, 2019, in the quiet suburb of Conyers, Georgia, about 25 miles east of Atlanta. Three masked teenagers—a 15-year-old and two 16-year-olds identified as brothers Isaiah Reid and Jaime Hernandez—approached three residents hanging out in the front yard of a home on White Oak Court. Armed with a handgun and intent on robbery, one of the teens opened fire on the group, escalating what could have been a theft into a life-or-death confrontation. The homeowner, whose identity has wisely remained undisclosed, didn’t hesitate—he retrieved his firearm and returned fire, striking all three intruders. One died at the scene, while the other two succumbed to their injuries at a local hospital. Miraculously, none of the intended victims were harmed.

Neighbors recounted the chaos: gunshots echoing through the night, followed by screams of “Help me, I’m dying.” One witness described hearing initial handgun pops, then a barrage that sounded like an assault rifle—clear evidence of the homeowner’s decisive response to an imminent threat. The Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office quickly investigated, recovering two guns from the scene and confirming that at least one teen had fired first. Sheriff Eric Levett classified it as a potential “stand-your-ground” case, invoking Georgia’s robust self-defense laws that allow deadly force when reasonably believed necessary to prevent death, serious injury, or a forcible felony—with no duty to retreat. No arrests were made, no charges filed. The homeowner did what any responsible gun owner would: protect his own.

Surveillance footage from the incident, which has resurfaced amid the lawsuit buzz, captures the chilling prelude—three hooded figures creeping up the stairs, one visibly armed, poised for violence. It’s a stark visual reminder of the dangers lurking in the shadows, and why the Second Amendment isn’t just a right—it’s a lifeline.

Fast forward to May 2025, and the parents of these would-be robbers have decided accountability starts with everyone but themselves. They’ve announced a civil lawsuit against the homeowner, seeking $2 million in damages despite the clear self-defense ruling six years prior. Their claims? Not fully public yet, but viral reports and family statements harp on the homeowner having “no right to take their lives,” labeling his actions “excessive” while conveniently ignoring that their sons initiated the gunfire. As Sheriff Levett aptly put it in a recent statement: “The law is clear: you don’t get to attack someone and then cry foul when they fight back.” Critics rightly point out this suit deflects from the real failures—poor parenting that led armed teens to commit a felony at 4 a.m.—and instead chases a payout from the very man who was victimized.

This absurdity is a “perfect 2A moment” gone wrong, where the system that empowers self-defense is now being twisted by those who enabled the threat. As Amy Swearer of the Heritage Foundation reminds us, “The right to keep and bear arms is based on the natural, immutable right to defend oneself and one’s liberties from crime and tyranny.” In Conyers, that right was exercised flawlessly, yet here we are, with “woke” parents suing as if their kids were innocent trick-or-treaters instead of masked gunmen. Gun control advocates love to downplay defensive uses of firearms, but stories like this prove Americans rely on them far more than the media admits—and often without the spotlight.

The teens were from the area but not the neighborhood, a detail that underscores they targeted this home deliberately. The investigation back in 2019 wrapped up with the homeowner cleared, and Georgia’s laws held firm. Now, this lawsuit threatens to erode those protections, setting a dangerous precedent where victims pay the price for criminals’ choices. Law-abiding gun owners don’t seek these confrontations; they pray they never happen. But when masked intruders fire first, the Second Amendment ensures survival isn’t left to chance.

As the case unfolds—no major updates yet beyond the announcement—let’s rally behind the real hero: the homeowner who stood his ground. This isn’t about vengeance; it’s about justice. The parents’ suit? A shameless cash grab that dishonors their own failures and mocks the Constitution. In America, the right to defend your home shouldn’t come with a $2 million bill attached. The Second Amendment says otherwise, and it’s time we shout it louder.
