Washington, eh? Shouldn't the police still be interrogating the mom to determine whether she underwent a background check before purchasing the firearm used to neutralize the suspect in accordance with the new voter-approved law (assuming it was privately transferred to her)?
Sorry for the rant. I just still can't believe Washington voters were so willing to abdicate their liberties last month, simply because the government refuses to keep the most dangerous known criminals among us from being, or remaining, incarcerated.
I am however very relieved to hear this woman had the courage to defend her family when it mattered.
The father had grabbed the four children and huddled them for safety when a shot rang out--it was the sound of the mother shooting the home invader in the stomach.
That's what I said. Not to get all He-Man here, but if someone's pounding on my door at 3AM, there's no way I'm having the wife investigate while I stay upstairs with the kids.
The wussification of the liberal American male....it's sad really!!![/QUOTE my take is that its great when women shoot criminals, it proves that firearms are needed to equal the playing field.
