13-year-old man (mean that in a good way) steps up when mom hesitated

PoS high on meth tried to break into an occupied home through a window. Mom was armed but fumbled around while also trying to dial 911. Son steps up to the plate, takes the gun, and shoots the PoS.

I agree completely with Colin's statement that the gun is neither good nor evil, it is just a tool. A valuable tool.

The NRA magazine used to have stories like these. I love these recounts of events.

the media will never show more than 5 min of this sadly, we need to get rid of the fear and start teaching so the right people have the fear.

young man 30 years from now talking to his kids counselor.
counselor : "Were you ever bullied in school"
Man : "Yes, but it all stopped in 7th grade one day"

His grip is horrible.

His grip is horrible.

Thankfully he's got plenty of time to improve on that.

His grip is horrible.

I agree but it was good enough to send the perp to the hospital. Gunshot to the abdomen and arm. Sounds like maybe a .380 used. Dunno.

Perp will now get a lawyer and sue the family.

Some moron decided I was his target for the year in middle school (something about middle school age I guess)...anyway I put up with his crap for a while trying the "don't give a reaction, he'll get bored and move on" method. Didn't work. One day after lunch he walked past me as I was talking to some folk he shoulder-checked me. Hehe...I was like "excuse me for a moment" went to him and gave him a nice shove.

Went back to talking and and see their heads lean over my shoulder....I turned around just in time to catch sight of a fist right there. We scrapped for a bit, broken up by teachers, got "in school suspension" (still able to do work, but had to sit in a conference room all day for a week). Since we had to sit across each other I asked why he was that way..."I dunno."

But, to steal from Jhoon Rhee commercials, from that day on "no body bodder me."
