VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. —

A 64-year-old Daytona woman didn't hesitate to pull a gun on a suspected car thief whom she caught running from deputies, WFTV learned on Wednesday.

Investigators said Roderick Willis was a wanted fugitive and was being tracked by a sheriff's helicopter.

The helicopter had a spotlight on him as he ran along the side of Karen Granville's home and into her backyard.

However, before he could climb the fence, Willis came face-to-face with Granville, who pointed a gun right at his face and said, "Don't you move mother f*****, I will shoot you! I will shoot you where you stand!"

Gun-control-freak liberals would prefer she was beaten, raped, then strangled instead, and the thief given a fair trial and released in a couple years. He’s just a product of his environment, afterall. A victim of kapitalism. Traumatized from an early age by greedy CEO’s. Guns are dangerous, and the only way to stop gun violence is to ban them. Criminals who normally disobey the law will respect it in this case. If they don’t, it’s probably because they’re Republicans.

**This is the second time in less than two weeks older city residents have armed themselves to stop would-be criminals. **

.....I like this trend.

Well, we could let the lefties try by banning any TV or movie depictions of Explosives, Firearms, Alcohol or Tobacco.

Unfortunately in some states you can be charged for just carrying a pocket knife.

She knows the language!

And that's a S&W alloy-frame—model 37—just like mine.

Just saw the interview with the suspect’s mother. She was absolutely indignant that the lady pointed a gun at her son. Claimed the lady had no right, the son didn’t break any law, wasn’t going to hurt her, blah, blah, blah. In other words the usual bs.

Yeah, what I was thinking. Good work, but jeez....

OTOH, I am very much a lady and despise foul language, but I have never been in a situation like this. Perhaps, that is an effective way to let a thug know that a woman with a gun means business.
