Ever been home alone at night and get that feeling that something was wrong? Hear a jiggle at the door, see the guard chihuahua’s ears perk up? What did you do then? Call 911 hoping that the response time would be under 10 minutes? Grab a frying pan and check it out? Or, did you do the prudent thing and grab your gun? The people in the stories below grabbed their guns and are still alive because of it. Hopefully, you’ll do what they did when the situation calls for it.
Home alone, a 17-year-old girl did not answer the door when the door bell rang. Shortly thereafter, she heard someone jump over the gate in the backyard. She then saw a man reach through the home’s doggie door and attempt to unlatch it. The girl quickly armed herself and fired a shot at the doggie door. Without hesitation, the suspect fled. It is unknown whether or not the man was injured. The area was heavily searched, but police were unable to locate the man. (The Arizona Republic, Glendale, Ariz., 2/07/12)
Instead of going to school, three teenagers went on a crime spree robbing two pedestrians. The teens then attacked a 65-year-old man riding a bicycle on a public trail. The man was carrying a concealed firearm and fought back, shooting two of the three assailants. Shot in the chest, one assailant was pronounced dead at the scene. The second was struck in the neck and taken to a local hospital. The third teen was charged with robbery, aggravated assault as well as other related offenses. (Reading Eagle, Reading, Pa., 1/27/12)
Between 2 and 3 P.M. a woman was stopped along the highway when a man approached her car door. He pulled out a knife that appeared to already have a bloody blade and demanded that she go with him. He threatened her, telling her that if she did not comply she would “end up like that woman on TV.” The woman believed he was referring to a missing teacher confirmed dead just days before. She told the man to wait while she got her cigarettes, then reached down and pulled out a gun. The man quickly fled. (Bozeman Daily Chronicle, Bozeman, Mont., 1/14/12)
Police received a call from a 15-year-old girl claiming there was someone trying to get into her house while she was home alone. She reported that she heard the front door jiggle, looked out the window and saw two men there. One man managed to get into the garage, where he was attempting to steal a pickup truck. After retrieving her father’s handgun, the girl confronted the man in the garage, causing him to immediately flee. His accomplice, who had already made his way inside and was ransacking the contents of the home, quickly followed suit. (The Daily News, Texas City, Texas, 1/15/12)
Just like in the stories above, women and the elderly defend themselves, their family members, and their property with guns every single day. Don’t let the liberal media, and their low-life accomplices in government trick you into giving up your right to self-defense with firearms. Help protect your gun rights and the right to defend yourself by joining the NRA. The NRA fights to keep your Second Amendment rights intact everyday. It’s especially important to help the NRA during this election year!
