This is the kind of person who the dems want to be able to vote, knowing that they will vote for dems.

Buxton had a permit to carry a handgun. You don't need a permit in Texas to have a gun in the house.

Oh. This is the DFW Arlington, not the Riverside, California Arlington. Bummer.
Cut the homeowner some slack, by the way. How good a shot do you think you'd be if a burglar woke you up first thing in the morning?
