In the UK more than 40% of home invasions happen while the homeowners are in the house as the thieves know that homeowners are disarmed.

She should have aimed a few shots at the heart.

There’s a million stories out there like this one but I’ll be damned if you’ll ever hear about it on the communist propaganda networks posing as our MSM.

There will be those who insist she should have answered the door as it was 1 o’clock in the afternoon. She didn’t as the man at the door was black, and I assume, someone she didn’t know.

There are not details given as to if there had been problems locally with break-ins, or people being assaulted in their homes. It would have added to the story if such facts had been included.

For myself, I do not usually answer the door to unknowns. I open a 2nd story window and ask what they want. No way do I open my door to strangers.

five of which hit alleged suspect Paul Ali Slater in the face and neck area.

Funny, every other story I've read about this is that the perp was hit in the lung, abdomen and center mass area.

Sure do love the accuracy of the media these days....

The "average" home invasion now is a crew of three. Are you ready to deal with three thugs, right now?

They will intentionally come into your home while you are home. That is because usually people with alarm systems don't arm the alarm while they are home. So no automated response.

They will come when they can reasonably expect you are not in bed, with your firearm on the nightstand or under your bed. They'll also pick a time when you're all probably together - meal times etc. That way they burst in, can control you, prevent any pesky phone calls to police.

So think about that. When you're preparing dinner, watching TV of an evening. Are you ready for a knock on the door or someone breaking through that sliding glass door? Even if you get a call out to the police, you're on your own for something like 10 minutes, entertaining your guests. If you're lucky, they're only there for your TV, wallet, phone, etc. - easily transportable valuables. Then again, you're just in the way and a security risk to them, they may decide to put you and yours down just to get you out of the way...

Sure, the chances of this scenario happening are very very remote. Yet when the consequences are so extreme - why take chances? You have a smoke detector, CO detector, wear your seatbelt, have homeowners insurance... All things you'll probably never need, but you have just because of consequences should you need them. Same thing with defending yourself and your family.

Be ready.

The good news is that the woman and her kids "came out of the closet."

“Ali” isn’t that a name like “Hussein”?

Seems to me we should roll back gun control when these events occur, just as the left tries to do the opposite following a tragedy. Where is all the proposed pro-gun legislation following this self-defense use of a gun?

Dear Home Owner, you may want to consider something that looks a little more like this in a caliber that starts with a "4" with high cap magazines in spite of what the media says.

Remember, when seconds count, law enforcement is only minutes away.
