Good Guys +1, Bad Guys -1

To All,

Just read this great story and wanted to pass it on.

Okla. Woman Shoots, Kills Intruder: 911 Operators Say It's Okay to Shoot - Yahoo!

Very sad about the loss of her husband.

I am glad that she had the courage to use the weapon once it was pulled.

Regards,

Doug

I hope there is a special place in hell for that POS. Too bad his buddy isn't currently at room temperature, too.

Just saw that on the Daily Mail UK site - states and locales that prohibit or make home defense impractical should be sued by the feds into following the US Constitution.

And as has been said here many times, when every second counts, the police are only minutes away.

Give that woman a medal!

Holy crap.
That was full of all kinds of cry. That poor girl...
She must have been scared out of her mind for her baby and herself.
ONE minute is an eternity to go through something like that...but on hold with 911 for Twenty-one minutes??
That poor girl...

I love the headline "Pistol Packing Mama"

Glad she had a gun handy to protect herself and her child.

The really chilling item that popped up in this article is that the woman called 911 as soon as the guys started trying to break in, combined with this quote:
"I can't tell you that you can do that but you do what you have to do to protect your baby," the dispatcher told her. McKinley was on the phone with 911 for a total of 21 minutes.


It took TWENTY ONE MINUTES for police to arrive!! This isn't to bash the police, because I know that they were probably swamped, but it should give pause to those idiots out there who say that when someone tries to break in, or rob, or murder or rape you, that all you have to do is call the police and they will magically save you.

Good story.
One disagreement tho'

"I wouldn't have done it, but it was my son," McKinley told ABC News Oklahoma City affiliate KOCO. "It's not an easy decision to make, but it was either going to be him or my son. And it wasn't going to be my son. There's nothing more dangerous than a woman with a child."

Ummm
A pregnant woman with a child would actually be more dangerous.
IMHO of course.

Respects to dad for presumably leaving behind the means for mama to defend what was left of.the.family. sad story.

 

[Bane_FTW]

Things could of been a lot worse if she didn't make that decision.

 

[phatgemi]

What a story! The little lady made a conscious decision and did what she had to do. God bless her.

And man is it hard to beat you ingun'ers to the punch on a thread.

Great coverage.

 

[blamecharles]

Just read this story also, +1 to her for defending herself and having it all on 911 call. What were these 2 punk a$$es thinking.

 

[1911 DeadHead]

Two threads, same story. Good for her for keeping a clear head and knowing how to handle a firearm.

A teen mom in Oklahoma shot and killed an intruder on New Years Eve after he and another man tried to break into their house. Her husband had died on Christmas day a week earlier.

[ArcadiaGP]

If you've got a gun.... you should know it's OK to shoot an intruder. You shouldn't have to ask someone else's permission.

I'm glad this turned out OK, but that part of the story is just wierd.

I hate this crap: It's going to make me out to be a "kill em all and let god sort them out", chest thumping nitwit, but I am going to call 911 after the event transpires or dial it, hand phone to someone else. I don't need someone to tell me when to turn the master arm on and safety off... I have heard a few tapes of 911 calls and the dispatcher is always telling the person DONT shoot them, blah blah blah, like their fat arse is right there, seeing the event, feeling the terror of someone coming down your hall. F dat...

 

[jsharmon7]

She sounded very calm and collected on that 911 recording. She knew what she had to do, kept her cool, and protected her life and that of her son. Good for her!

 

[sigmachijc]

I'm surprised the media hasn't portrayed her to be a gun toting gangster already
