'My Wife Is A Hero': Georgia Mother Shoots Home Intruder

[url=http://www.theblaze.com/stories/my-wife-is-a-hero-georgia-mother-shoots-home-intruder-five-times-after-being-cornered/]source[/url] [quote]A Georgia mother and her two children are unharmed after a man broke into their house with a crowbar on Friday, corning them in an attic crawlspace According to WSB-TV, the woman was at home with her nine-year-old twins when the doorbell rang. When they didn't answer, the man reportedly went back to his car and returned with a crowbar. The mother said she could see the suspect- now identified as Paul Slater- trying to enter the house with the crowbar from her office window. Without hesitation, she grabbed her children, her phone, her gun, and ran upstairs.[/quote]

  • I can't wait for the gun control argument that will lock the thread! On topic: If this was in the UK, that family would've been bye-bye.

Or just about how you are going to get through the day.

And the guy's telling her to quit shooting," Chapman said.[/quote] Or am I reading this wrong?

  • FOX News coverage: "The man with the crowbar has been likened to that of the fictional video game character Gordon Freeman in the violent shooter Half-Life. It's once again clear that the video game industry has poisoned the minds of not just vulnerable youths, but tax paying adults. Will the violence surrounding video games ever end?"

You also can't blame the women for be a little jumpy with the trigger a man just broke into their house with a crowbar
