Don't accost people with tire irons in their own house if you don't want to get shot. What's bugging me is that the DA is still wondering if it is self defense or not.

Amazing, isn't it? Probably a horribly incompetent DA trying to set himself up for his first murder conviction...wouldn't suprise me.

A 15-year-old boy shot during a California burglary has died.I LOVE a happy ending!
The district attorney's office will determine if the woman will face any charges.
This STUPID DA should be cutting her a check for 10% percent of what it would have cost to try, convict and incarcerate this piece of human scum.

Burglar shot by 65 year old woman Did you use the title from the article or did you make up your own?
From the article:
Police said a 59-year-old woman returned to her South Los Angeles home Tuesday morning after a walk and was confronted by a boy wielding a tire iron. She shot him with a handgun she keeps for protection. The woman wasn't hurt.
Wow, did she age 6 years in the course of getting the story posted?

In your home you should be able to defend yourself. You can in every state except New York City, and other left-wing pro criminal areas.

It's a shame this woman had to kill a child to protect herself. I'm sure this will weigh heavily on her heart unless she's an exceptionally centered person. Whoever was responsible for this kid needs to answer for it.
