Investigators released a 911 call with the teen calmly describing how he shot the intruder.

In the call, the teen, says: 'I just shot the man. He came around the corner. I shot him. He broke the whole glass out (of the back door).'

He continues: 'I don't know how many it was (who broke in). Just one came around the corner. I got one more in the chamber. I'm going to shoot again,' the boy said. '

Do not, while I’m on the phone, do not fire that firearm, OK?' the dispatcher says '

What if another one comes in the house, ma'am?' he asked. '

Let me know, OK, if you see anybody. I will let you know (when a deputy gets to the house),' the dispatcher responded.

What is this with the dispatcher telling the kid not fire the gun again if another person comes at him? The dispatcher needs to be written up!

Actually the dispatcher is right to warn the boy to be careful of whom hes shooting.

Supposing the deputy comes running around the corner and the kid is primed to shoot the first thing he sees?

The dispatcher wants the kid to warn him first because the dispatcher knows when the deputy has arrived via radio contact.

The boy should have hung up right when the liberal on the phone told him not to shoot again. When seconds count, the police are only minutes away! Everybody remember this. You have to get every one of them that is in the house as quick as you can after you get the first one. If you let them get away, they will vote for Obama again.

I suspect the main motive behind that instruction was to make sure he didn't accidentally shoot a responding deputy while hopped up and shaking on adrenaline. Poorly worded, though, to be sure.

That dispatcher should be fired and the entire 911 center staff re-trained.
