Had he been armed from the beginning, things may have turned out differently.

I am so very glad we keep rifles at all five door and hand guns thought the house.

We know where we live the police would never get here in time for much more than papers work.

The guy reminded me of the husband in Death Wish until the very end. Kudos to him for the ability to improvise, adapt, and overcome. A gun is just a tool, and happens to be the best tool for overcoming criminal violence.

I am amazed to hear this narrative from the MSM. We are progressing forward.

True, but we are still not winning in landslide fashion. Heller was decided 5-4. And Heller also left a lot of room for interpretation, for 'reasonable regulation.' And Hillary Clinton who is reliably anti-gun-rights will probably get a chance to appoint 1-3 Scotus justices if elected in 2016.

Far too many people are not aware of the fact that police are not obligated to protect them.

Self defense is a personal responsibility.

It was a win, not a landside but a win none the less.

We are taking back the popular culture and education, with those weapons taken away from the leftist and used as tools to educate the youth the days of the left are numbered...

She has to run to the left of Obama, which if his ideas are not working she will have to explain why doubling down on his brand of stupid will some how work...

Warren is a threat, but then again he hypocrisy and lies might shoot her in the foot...

Keep in mind that the dems have just about lost the youth and millennials maybe for 20 years maybe permanently..

The Neo Cons are just about finished in the GOP, thank Christ. Rand Paul/Ted Cruz are the future...

Also long as Amnesty is prevented and the borders are secured, and immigration is clamped down on, along with school vouchers and school choice, we have a great future ahead.

And if it was 4-5 I think the justices would have bigger issues to worry about...Like how to live to see next month...

Not being armed was mistake number 1. But he lived in NJ so it was difficult to impossible so moving there was the biggest mistake.

Mistake 2 was going back inside the apartment building. Never lead the bad guy back to your residence. Walk around the block. Walk to a store. Walk to a place with witnesses. What's 10 to 20 minutes of time compared to what happened?

Mistake 3 was going back inside the apartment with his fiance there. There is no way I would have opened the door for them. I would have died at the door before I purposely expose my family to danger of that magnitude.

Yup nothing but luck is the reason this idiot and his lady are still alive.

Classic predator prey behavior as can be seen in nature everyday.
