Beat me to it. I was going to post this.
We need more people like her in the world. Maybe dirt bags would think twice, or be weeded from our society!

Finally someone else thinks like i do.  i keep a loaded 20 gauge in my place just for that reason

[VileZambonie]

Just think about what those two losers were going to do. They probably knew she was young and all alone, probably would have raped and killed her and her baby and stole a pack of cigs. Looks like they got what was coming to them.

Good for her. Two men that would attempt to do something to a woman and child like that deserved it. Too bad one of them is still wasting oxygen.

      Sorry blazin, but I am glad to hear some think the way I do.  I am just happy that law enforcement was on her side.  I get tired of hearing stories ( especially in Ca. ) where they protect the criminal more than the victim.

the guy's partner, because he was an accomplice and someone was killed in the crime, is charged with 1st degree murder.....i love it.

[Blazin]

That's awesome except we will pay to feed, cloth, medical, etc. etc. etc. for him until he dies if he is convicted!

[Lt.Del]

i agree, but the only crimes he can conduct now are against his cell mates--not innocent citizens.  Besides, we need jobs, so, build more jails and prisons and lock more up for longer periods of time. Prison staff pays income taxes, then buys stuff and pay sales tax, property tax, etc....keeps the economy flowing.  This leach on the streets collect unemployment, disability, welfare, food stamps, etc... but they also victimize innocent citizens with the crime they conduct. Lock 'em all up forever.
But, lead poisoning would've been a better alternative

The prison industry is why its going to be so hard to repeal drug laws in this country. Do you understand the reasoning you just put out? You desire to put more people in cages? Also, who do you think pays for these prisons?

I agree that it's too bad she only got the one, I feel for her to have taken a human life. They apparently were looking for drugs, probably the same stuff they took before the attempted burglary, hydrocodone (generic form of vicadin). Which in itself is more dangerous to the user than a normal opiate. They design it to destroy your liver if you try to take too much. Nice.

If drugs were legal and untaxed (ie cheap), these losers could have just vegged out on the couch rather than trying to force their way into this woman's home and one being sent to burglar Valhalla.

[Lt.Del]

as long as there are criminals walking the streets, we need more prisons...i'd gladly pay (yes i know who pays for prisons) for more prisons to have safe streets and no crime. If i had my way, more tax money would go to prisons than to disability benefits and welfare---put those people to work...there are desk jobs at prisons too for the disabled.

i'd like to discuss more about the actual situation----apparently she knew at least one of the perps? ; i'm surprised at how calm she was over the phone.

     That just goes to show you that she was not going to take any crap from anybody.  Plus just loosing her husband, she was probably a little pissed off.

[Grim 82]

This is a pretty good case for gun ownership. She was on the 911 call for 21 minutes before police showed up.
12 gauge in hand > cops on the phone
I'm tired of paying for prisons. I think people should get a second chance. Like if somebody is the victim of a crime where deadly force would have been justified and they didn't have a gun to defend themselves, they should get the second chance to go out and purchase a gun, then have the bad guy pulled out of prison and tied to a tree so they can shoot them.
Or, allow victim's families to administer weekly beatings to the criminals, put it on PayPerView, and use the proceeds to pay for the prison operating costs, so they can keep their hands off my money. I don't pay for cable TV for myself, but my tax money goes to pay for cable in the jails. And those guys are probably being fed better than a lot of law abiding Americans.

Payper view beatings, you definetly got something there. UFC already has made BILLIONS of dollars.
