This happened three houses away from mine. My wife was outside and heard the shots and the crash of the thugs busting out a window, running for their lives.

She saw one of the jackasses run down our street and hop a fence.

She came in the house and was so hyped up , she was speechless, (believe me, that's a rare state for her).

I asked her what was wrong, all she could say was, "They're shooting !"

I called to report shots fired. The 911 line was busy ! Several neighbors must have called at the same time. Because the cops showed up while I was on the phone.

The wounded thug was laying in the gutter across the street from my house.

At that time I didn't know he'd been hit.

A crazy day in the 'hood yo!

Good time to get her OK to purchase another firearm.

"The wounded thug was laying in the gutter"

A wounded animal will always return to familiar territory.

Bernstein described how it all unfolded,"We have a gentleman who was home alone in his house. He sees people outside and doesn't recognize them. They then force entry into his house. He begins to fight with them. We have four guys at least.

If this happens to you, assuming you have a gun within reach, do you grab your gun and lie in wait till they burst in, then holler at them to get on the ground or you'll shoot?

Or do you start popping off rounds, going down the line till the threat is gone?

With the state of the government these days, the homeowner will probably be charged with assault with a deadly weapon and with stealing the perps gun. LOL!

It’d be cool if he got to keep the gun. If he already has a carry permit, is there any potential downside?
