911 Audio: Woman kills intruder

This happened in my beautiful state. And as sad as any death is, one of the beautiful things about this state is that people are allowed to protect their homes from intruders, like this one.

After midnight, the woman's dog began barking to wake her up. A stranger was attempting to break into her house. Once notified that she was armed and on the phone with police, the man refused to stop. He threw patio furniture through the back door to get entrance. And so she shot.



Her calm before the shooting is amazing. Her prayers are heartbreaking, especially her pleas of not wanting to hurt his man. He, however, gave her no choice. In the full audio, you can hear her crying, mourning his family, and asking God to forgive her, as well as asking for an ambulance for him. I warn you, the audio really hurts. She should never have been placed in that position. Thank God, however, she had the ability to defend herself.

This, my friends, is why we must have the right to possess guns and to use them in self-defense.
After the incident, officers found Riley's truck and his sister a few miles from the home. They say his sister was on so many drugs, she was nearly unconscious. They believe he was on drugs as well.

Yeah, we should legalize drugs like marijuana. Stellar idea.

Saw this quote today & it made me think of this story:
"One loves to possess arms, though they hope never to have occasion for them." --Thomas Jefferson, letter to George Washington, 1796
