    It's a good thing this couple didn't have a gun, or they BOTH might be dead now. And everyone with a window along with them:

    In unrelated news: I heard a story about a woman who killed her husband, and blamed a window!

    There's no gun that's gonna save you when your wife decides to kill you in your sleep. :shrug:

    In this instance, the intruder might have forced the gun away from a home owner and then used it to harm someone else.

    Ignoring the sarcasm of the OP, it is good that they did not have a gun in this instance.

    Further, if the police don't deem it prudent to charge the wife, then I see no reason to be suspicious of her.

    Which thing can only happen when the homeowner holding the gun has been so thoroughly brainwashed by anti-gun zealots that he or she is incapable of pulling the trigger. Want to blame someone for home invaders' ability to take guns away from homeowners? Don't blame the homeowner, blame the anti-gun crowd for psychologically castrating homeowners.

    If they had guns, apostle wouldn't have been able to blatantly use the death as a platform for his causes.

    So thank baby jesus that they didn't.

    Because that happens SO incredibly often that NO home owner has EVER successfully defended themselves, so NO ONE should EVER have a gun

    Fuck you.

    The guy was shot and stabbed, I'm failing to see a situation in which him having a gun and it being taken away from him would put the intruder at an even greater advantage.

    He was shot and stabbed while sleeping. How would a gun have helped him?

    Are you suggesting this man would have survived if he'd had a gun? or the guy who was holding a dog while his wife shot him would have survived if he'd had a gun also?

    Because it sounds like neither you, nor apostle have any idea where or when a a gun might actually be used for home defense.

    Have you also pulled a gun on your mother?

    I'm not suggesting anything about this case. I'm merely stating that based on your post you haven't got a clue about home defense or guns.

    A gun would not have helped in this situation. That's why if you want to kill someone, you do it while they sleep. :bergman:

    There is a old thread about home defense where Jenne showed how incompetent she would be defending her child or herself during a home invasion.

    For those of you who don't know, the TBBSers are apparently disappointed that I acted responsibly in gun ownership.

    I arrived home several years ago and found that several things had been disturbed, and then heard a noise. No family or friends had told me they were coming over, and I lived alone in a part of town where crime is not unknown. In fact, burglary and home invasions were common.

    I was approximately mid way into my place. Calling 911 would have simply let someone know I was there if they didn't, and there was no way a response time would have been quick enough had that happened. Further, I did not know how many people I was dealing with or how far they were willing to take an altercation.

    So, I did what I go to classes to do and what I practice to do: I drew my 1911 and prepared to defend my home. I cleared my apartment, and quickly found my mother in my kitchen.

    Since I verify targets before I fire, I did not shoot my mother. A conservative woman did not get shot, so the libtards such as Jenee were angry.

    Of course, Jenee has a problem with this. I defend my home, while she abandons it and all her family inside while breaking the marriage oath. She's sort of nuts.

    Oh, and by the way Jenee, I don't know you. Don't get any ideas about breaking into my place, as I will not hesitate to use all options to defend it. My wife will treat things in the same manner I would as well (though she would be more scared and probaby pull the trigger more on a home invader).

    God bless America!

    I don't know if having a gun would have helped.

    But I know it certainly wouldn't have hurt.

    So yeah, you pulled a gun on your mother.

    She probably realized what a piece of shit her son is and wanted you to put her our of her misery.

    What order of events? You pulled a gun on your own mother. The woman who gave you life. For shame.

    Justify it all you like. You pulled a gun on your mother. You should be in jail.

    No. You just wanted to shoot your mouth off and got caught in the shit.

    Really? Incompetent? Please refresh my memory.

    Before you do, tho. Let me state that I don't own a gun, nor do I feel so unsafe that I feel the need to buy one.

    I don't call that incompetent, just exercising my right to choose. And I choose not to own a gun.

    I can see why you'd call that incompetent tho, because I know how those who feel like their gun is connected to their penis - such as you and apostle - like to scream about your rights while simultaneously taking away other's.
