Don’t get shot with your own gun.
USA Today doesn’t read gunssavelives.net,
they don’t care about “Our 1,000th Documented Defensive Gun Use – 2 Armed Robbers Shot and Killed in Texas.”
Instead, this is what they report:
HILLVIEW, Ky. — A man attempting to break into a home Monday about 15 miles south of Louisville, Ky., shot a woman with her own gun after she confronted him at her back door, a Bullitt County Sheriff’s detective said.
The incident happened at about 4 a.m. ET when the woman got up to let her dogs out in this city of less than 10,000 residents along Interstate 65, Detective Scotty McGaha said.
The woman told investigators she heard a noise and grabbed her 9mm handgun. When she opened her back door, she was face to face with the suspect, police said.
The man — described as about 35 years old, white with no facial hair and wearing a red baseball cap — was able to take the gun away from the woman and shot her once in the shoulder, McGaha said.
The woman’s husband and daughter, who were asleep in the house at the time, woke up and rushed to her aid, but by the time they got to the door the assailant had fled, the detective said. The woman was taken to University of Louisville Hospital with injuries that were not life threatening.

Then of course you’ll get the a-holes commenting: “I guess that blows the ‘protective effect’ theory,” a-holes who get 15 likes from other a-holes that won’t read anything about guns unless the liberal media reports it.
So what can we learn from this story? Besides not opening back doors (it’s better to wait for the criminal to break in and then surprise him), you have to be willing to shoot BEFORE he grabs the gun.
Top Reasons We Own Guns.
Biden and Obama think owning guns is about hunting, yet the numbers from Gallup don’t lie.
For me is both Protection and Target Shooting. It’s the reason I got me a concealed carry permit. I got tired of leaving the gun in the trunk and worrying about the gun not being loaded. My 2 guns are always loaded, always with a round in the chamber. At first I was uncomfortable doing that, but later on I got used to it.
Gallup wrote interesting “implications” of their survey.
Personal protection is the top reason Americans own a gun, as was true in 2000 and 2005. This, rather than views on the Second Amendment, may explain why moving toward greater gun control, as Obama and many Democrats have sought to do, is so difficult. Those who own firearms for protection may feel that their own personal safety is a vital need on which they do not wish to compromise.

We don’t just “feel it” Gallup, we know it. Guns Save Lives, I don’t care what lies Media Matters and other propaganda outfits try to sell, if guns didn’t save lives, cops wouldn’t carry them, politicians wouldn’t be protected by them, security guards would always be unarmed.
Why should we compromise? Who else compromises? Show me any other group that gives up their rights. We’re going to fight, this is our issue. Here’s what Colion Noir has to say about the dangers of compromising.
