So guns can be used to protect people? Funny how the DemoQuacks never mention this basic fact.

[Albion Wilde]

I love a story with a happy ending!

According to DOJ crime statistics, guns are used by private citizens 2.5 million times per year to prevent violent crimes like rape, robbery, carjacking and home-invasion, 99% of the time without a shot being fired.

Thanks for the data.

I hope that all the facts are getting before the appropriate committees and politicians in state legislators and Congress as the DemoQuacks start introducing their anti-gun legislation.

In February, Slater was arrested on simple battery charges, according to the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office. He has been arrested six other times in the county since 2008.

Another criminal who has no business being out on the streets. He could have killed her and her children if he wasn't armed.

Now he's afraid of dying. Well, he should have thought of that before he broke into her house. Maybe if he lives, this will scare him straight. Maybe not. Probably not.

Don’t mess with a Mama Grizzly and her cubs!!!!!!!

Headline should read “Woman saves family during Home Invasion!” cause that’s what it sounded like, not a simple burglary...he went after them.

And the guy's telling her to quit shooting,"

I love stories with a lot of action.

Bet he felt really tough and powerful standing over her and being threatening until she gave him the literal “In Your Face” retort.

The woman then shot him five times, but he survived, Chapman said. He said the woman ran out of bullets but threatened to shoot the intruder if he moved.

Too bad she didn't have a semi with a 15, or a 30, round magazine. Some people would like to be sure that nobody does, not her and not anybody else either. Well, except for the bodyguards or Secret Service agents protecting *them*, of course.

I hope he gets saved before he dies. On the other hand, I think the fine citizens of Georgia have been burdened enough already.

The Feel-Good story of the week! I love a story where they ask a crime victim why she shot the scumbag criminal x number of times and they say, “Becuase that’s all the bullets that were in the gun.”

“Help me. I’m close to dying.”

OK, but first let me finish lunch and pick up my dry cleaning.

If this were Washington, DC, she and the kids would either be dead because they couldn’t protect themselves, or mom would be in jail for possessing a weapon.

Poor woman, if she had only had one of those high capacity mags that Queen Nancy wants to outlaw, this guy would be history.

[AlaskaErik]

One more reason I have absolutely no use for wheel guns. When I've pumped out six rounds of .40 I still have eight more left. Plus, I have a spare mag with 13 more rounds. Running out of ammo during a firefight has to be an awful feeling that I don’t ever want to experience.

Gun-control advocates say this never happens.

[dadfly]

thank God the innocent are all safe. and a small thank you to her husband, who probably took careful steps to prepare his wife and family for this eventuality.

[papertyger]

But what about the .357 “death-ray of doom?”

;o)

Maybe NOW she'll consider what he REALLY wanted to get instead of that peashooter.
