OK .. thanks!

She had a double barreled shotgun, a pistol, and a German shepherd. I’d say she was prepared. Too bad she let the other one live. 2 men armed with knives breaking into the home of a single (widowed) pretty woman should be put down.

3,032 to 70.

What in the world are those 70 people thinking? This is a textbook example of “When seconds count, LEOs are only minutes away.”

Dog looks like it’s doing fine

Good shooting, Citizen. Civilization thanks you.

I think something is strange in this story.

If I’d just shot someone, I would not be on tv re-enacting. Isn’t this a bit weird?

I don't know. If I'd just shot someone breaking into my house, for whatever reason, I might get the wife to take my picture posing with my foot on his face. I certainly wouldn't feel bad about it.

First time I heard about this, what a courageous woman, I hope she has an angel next to her forever more. And someone with a helping hand.

And this kinda makes me do a little out of the box thinking, and I have posted it before about having a camera equipped cellphone permanently attached to your home defense weapon such as a shotgun, not only can you dial 911 but you can also send a pic for recovery efforts of the perp who just did a Type O Picasso on the wall.

I wonder if they were embarrassed by the UK paper scooping them on this. It is the power of the Internet and the new media.

Well, there are 62 people who need to be in an idiots’ home. (IMHO, of course)

[gundog]

So, where was puppy in all of this? Looks kinda sheepish.

I think the loss of her husband was more traumatizing and she needs the money.
