Yorkshires don't look like a human, they don't knock on your front door and then proceed to kick in the back door.

By the spelling of neighbor I'll assume you're European? This girl did exactly what was right.

My liberal friend said that the girl used excessive force. Maybe she should have tried to hold his hand and sing Kumbaya.
Go Girl. Good Job.

A neighbour looks like human, and he may go all the way to the room, where she's hiding, to say sorry.

I'm Russian, and this is one of the words, which spelling I fail to remember - so I let google correct me.

It's hard to blame a little girl. But the system, in which such things happen, is totally wrong.

This person had clear intentions and broke down the back door.

It's not the system, it's the thugs out there that have intentions to harm others. This girl did absolutely nothing wrong.

----edit-----

What exactly do you mean by that last comment? It's wrong that she was able to defend herself?

We're not talking about protecting a property (which is a very controversial topic), but about a little girl with a gun, and a willingless to use it!!!

I can provide another example - school shootings. Try to find any in Russia. A country, that's since 1990's is way more troubled than US.

For us such things are totally incomprehensible. Even our pro-gunnners don't comprehend, when they are faced with such examples. That's simply unreal!

But for you that's a fact of life. Just like a homeless guy shooting a random woman on a street. Or a guy in a restaurant. Happened in New Orleans. National media didn't even pay much attention - because in US that's NORMAL.

Fight the source of the problem.

She didn't defend herself. She just shot a thief.

Pardon me if I find it ironic that a Russian puts down a system of another country. Do you not know your country's history? That is one system that nobody wants.

No one is blaming the girl, she deserves an award for capping off a round into a scumbag while protecting herself and property.

If the Yorkshire broke in her house and opened the closet door where she chose to hide yes shoot it before it gets you

You are 12 year old girl and someone breaks into your house.
You run to a closet to hide.
Man opens closet door . You have 3 seconds , if you do not shoot you can be raped and killed.
You know how and can use it.
You him you know you live.


BANG
You are alive and not raped on a milk carton
