BG was reading a story to me last night (it was a bed time story, my favorites)..
A woman working from home, kids downstairs, her up in her office. Knock at the door, she tells the kids not to answer, she looks out to see who it is as an unknown person goes to their car to retrieve a tire iron, and he starts to knock down her front door.
She gets the kids, escapes into a storage area in a bedroom and locks herself in.. calls her husband (in this case probably smarter than calling 911).. He tells her to get her gun, remember what he taught her, and do whatever it takes to protect her and the kids.
He's talking to 911 on another line while he's keeping her calm.
Intruder breaks into the bedroom, then finds them in the storage area/closet.. she shooots him.. Empties the gun, 6 rouds expended, 5 find the target.
The intruder is still alive, but luckily doesn't realize she's out of bullets as she keeps repeating, "Don't move, or I'll shoot you again!"
Would have been a good day to own a gun with more than a 6 round capacity, would have been a better day to have a gun that went "Pew! Pew! Pew!" Of course the libs never take into account that it's not only the number of rounds you have, it's how many hit the intended target. If 50% of your bullets find the target, I'd much rather have it be 50% of 15 instead of 50% of 6.
No talk of what caliber, but basically it says to me, a small caliber revolver is NOT good enough for the task of protecting yourself. He still, though shot 5 times, could have probably still harmed or killed her and/or her kids.
You keep shooting until the threat is gone.. if he is going to kill you with your own gun make sure he has to beat you to death with it.
