My only recommendation for them is to get bigger guns next time. That dude was dusting off round after round like specks off his coat.

Poor form but goes to show you don't have to be a Navy SEAL to defend yourself with a firearm.

The difference between this story ending the way it did and two bodies being found in the back room is the fact that they were both armed.

If they hadn't of locked the perp inside, they wouldn't have needed to shoot the guns. They were very lucky he didn't kill them both.

Most liquor stor owner/ operators have a gun on the premises.

He robbed the store at gun point and turned around and approached the exit.

If his intent was to kill mom and daughter he would have done so. Instead he took the cash and attempted to leave.

Mother/ daughter grabbed their guns and fired at him.

The thief was shot in the leg and turned around and wrestled/ pistol- whipped...

Mother- daughter attribute each other to saving their lives.

Their lives were not in danger because the thief was departing- until they chose to shoot.

This could have easily resulted in the death of the 2 stupid women, all for the cash drawer.

Two of the hundreds of thousands of people who use guns to save lives every year, lives the gun banners don't care about.

And when will "the most trusted name in news" be running this story? Never because they aren't about news they're about pushing the leftist agenda.

They wanted to make sure he didn't get away. It's called being a responsible human being.

He broke the non-aggression principle. They had every right to shoot him.

All meaningless.

Once the non-aggression principle is broken you have forfeited your rights.

Even individual cops, off the record, will tell you that if someone breaks into your house kill them. It's not worth the hassle. And cops aren't exactly purveyors of freedom.
