A Milwaukee woman claims she was defending her children when she fatally shot an intruder who entered her home.

The mother of two, who asked to remain anonymous, said she was showering before work Monday morning when she heard her 12- and 14-year-old screaming from the living room, news station TMJ4 reported.

She immediately ran to her room, grabbed her gun, and confronted the intruder, who was undeterred by the family’s two pit bulls. She then shot him multiple times.

"....confronted the intruder, who was undeterred by the family’s two pit bulls."

If her two pit bulls are like mine, they probably wanted a pet and some belly rubbing from the intruder!

Case closed.

Should not have been arrested at all. It’s now on her record. Needs to sue for

false arrest. Maybe the newspeople got it wrong. Presuming she was a POC and

cops jumped to stereotype conclusion.

Great diversions though, with all that slobbering and body nudging.

And Daisy will NEVER forget the scent, sound and sight of a friend.

Once it’s in the brain, it’s registered forever.

If he’s got two pit bulls chewing on him, and he keeps coming, no wonder she shot him multiple times. 😆😊

The mother was arrested on the scene, but was released several hours later after questioning

Disgusting

My big boy, Tux, is a rescue pit bull.

His ears look like somebody clipped them with a pair of dull scissors.

Then they discovered that he’s a lover, not a fighter, so they tossed him out.

My first rescue dog. Best pet decision EVER!

I have an English Bull Terrier (Spuds Mckenzie). She’s playful with people she knows, but when it comes to strangers on the property she’s a 25 mph, 40 pound cinder block with razor blades on one end.

Mom protecting her kids. The most natural thing. But the dems want to take this right away from us. They want to take our guns so the “oppressed” can waltz right in and take what they want from their “oppressors.”

Any video would be helpful...as would the kids’ testimony. Also,look at the criminal history the dead guy has...if any. In Massachusetts,unlike in some (many?) states,one has a legal obligation to flee in a home invasion situation instead of attempting to neutralize the invader.

Milwaukee, the next Detroit. With a 52% high school graduation rate, it won’t take long.
