A New Mexico grandma has been hailed as a hero for shooting a burglar who burst into her home and attacked her while she watched a Taylor Swift movie with her granddaughter.

Anissa Tinnin, 45, was elated that her granddaughter was spending the night.

The duo ate dinner, bathed and cuddled on the couch as they watched Taylor Swift's Eras Tour film.

'We had our popcorn and M&M's, dancing and singing along, when our lives were about to suddenly change

A man Tinnin had never seen before barreled through the front door.

'I jumped over this couch and we met there by the front door,' Tinnin told KRQE.

'That's when he grabbed me and was upset and said to give him my keys. He said he didn't want to go to jail. He did threaten to hurt my granddaughter and me.'

The man, 32-year-old Joseph Rivera, was a convicted felon with a lengthy rap sheet. He was being chased by police.

Once inside Tinnin's home, he demanded she hand over the keys to her Range Rover Sport

Tinnin then grabbed her gun. As sirens sounded in the distance, Rivera returned, this time kicking the door in.

'Get back, get back. I have a gun. Get back. Get back. I will f******* shoot you,' before opening fire.

'Why did you shoot me?' Rivera demanded.

'Because you're in my f****** house!' the grandmother said.

She then came to the man's aid, applying pressure to the wound and telling him she would help under one condition: 'I will give you water, but if you f****** hurt me, I'm going to shoot you again.'

Police say Rivera was spotted in a stolen car around 9:30 pm. After hitting spike strips, he continued to drive before crashing the vehicle and running off.

Same here. Don’t need this creep or his creepy family suing me for a lifetime of his care.

...Or coming back to get revenge!

She is pretty hot. Hotter with a firearm. Sam Colt is correct again.

Only one shot. Tremendous restraint.

And......she is a raging conservative.......

The local Republicans on Dec. 14, 2020 signed certificates affirming that Donald Trump — not President Joe Biden, who won the election here by nearly 100,000 votes — should receive the five electoral votes, according to documents published by watchdog group American Oversight. The signers are Jewll Powdrell, Deborah W. Maestas, Lupe Garcia, Anissa Ford-Tinnin and Rosie Tripp.

Yeah, but she was a 45 year old grandmother.

I probably could have done that at that age too.

Not any more.

Three rounds center of mass would have made for a better outcome; as would having not given first aid to the maggot.

People will think twice about forced entry into homes, only after many of them are killed by the homeowner.

snippage:
Shoot till there are no bullets left. If he is still moving, bludgeon him with everything at your disposal until dead.

I make no apologies for my stance and applaud any parent who takes out the trash.

Dear Sir -

May I suggest:

Don’t bother calling 911, the emergency is over.

Call the front desk, ask to please come on down and pick up the trash at their convenience.

And Granny is a Cutie.
