"Come on in deary - here - have a little tea and a bullet sandwich"... 
Seriously, I think that this is a good example of defending oneself. |

I'm so pleased she had the courage to stand up for herself.
I'm not sure I could... but it's one of those things where you think... "it's my way not yours" when your messing with your life.
Her wishes that everyone take "hunters safety course to learn and respect your gun". I am thinking about it.

I would be curious just what this guy gets, says 30 years possible. I bet he don't serve 3 months with all of the left wing mamby pamby judges.
For all of the left wing antigunners, remember when seconds count help is only minutes away.  |
