Wednesday feel good story

| May 29, 2013

WOTN sends us the link to a story about Shirley Roberts, 52 who got her gun when she noticed three men attempting to break into her house after they saw her husband leave her alone;

It was then that Roberts, home alone, grabbed a gun and fired a single shot through her glass back door, hitting one of the men in the chest.

Her husband came home a short time later. He said he’s just glad his wife survived the ordeal.

“I’m not bragging about it,” Oscar Roberts said. “I’m just glad she’s unharmed and, as I said, ‘Just protect yourself.’”

Police say the robbers also fired back before they took off. The men were later arrested at Research Medical Center.

Her husband, Ocar says he’s been training her for that moment. That’s what a good husband does, isn’t it?

Apparently the perps have been apprehended and are in jail or the hospital, as the case may be.

Good for her, and good for the KCMOPD Spokeswoman for encouraging Kansas Citians to defend themselves.

Maybe SGT Barnes isn’t the Spokeswoman. Still, good for her.

If only she had a shotgun…..

BTW, we haven’t heard any pearls of wisdom from Shotgun Joe, AKA Drunk Uncle Joe, for a few weeks.

That could be because ol Uncle Joe is hanging out at the liquor cabinet, Hack. lol

TAH continues to demonstrate itself as a clearinghouse for crimes diverted by a well-armed citizenry, in addition to its traditional role in outing the wannabe’s of Stolen Valor.

Keep up the good work Jonn, et.al.!

See, if the Libtards had gotten their way, she would be facing felony charges for using a gun registered to her husband.

Good for her. I loves me a feel-good self-defense story.
And #6 Fen, if the Libtards had their way, neither of the good guys (husband/wife) would have had a gun to defend with.

He’s just so cute! He’s grinning away and just plain giddy over his pride in his wife. Very happy to see this.

Twist

That is one proud husband. I know I would be.

Good thing she doesn’t live in Medford, Oregon.
