Profoundly accurate Renegade13. Contrary to the media spin , we are Americans and we will not go quietly,we will not be afraid and become prisoners in our homes awaiting the permission of the government , or anyone else for that matter, we take care of our own and we take care of the business at hand as we have always done. This cannot be the land of the free without first being the home of the brave!

She certainly has the right to defend herself and her family. I wonder if there was a relationship between the two at some point. 6:45pm on a Tuesday is an odd time to go burglizing an occupied house.

Reimbursing the price of that bullet is alot cheaper than putting him on trial. Nice Job.

Too bad this doesn’t happen more often - but so many people are simply helpless, waiting to victimized. But everyone who wishes to defend themselves must make sure that they are fully prepared to do so - mentally, emotionally, and physically. If you get a firearm for self-protection, make sure that you learn how to properly use and maintain it. And PRACTICE often enough to keep a reasonable proficiency - don’t just fire your weapon once and then toss it in a drawer or the closet and ignore it.
