Sunday feel good story
Ex-PH2 sends us a link to today’s feel good story about a pregnant Texas woman who was reluctant to let her husband have a gun in their house, but has had a “come to Jesus moment” on the issue after two drug-addled men tried to break into her home when she was alone;
“By myself with 911 on one hand and the gun on the other and I’m just a nervous wreck. I don’t know what to do …I yelled and I told the 911 ‘Oh my gosh, he broke in!'”
Alex said she’s never felt comfortable with the idea of using a gun.
Still, her husband insisted on showing her how to use one just a few months ago.
“Nervous…It took me a very long time to pull the trigger and he said, ‘when you’re in a situation like that- you’re not going to think twice,'” recalled Alex.
She said that exactly what happened.
Once the men realized Alex was armed and ready to defend her home, they ran back towards their truck.
“The adrenaline kicked in and I just shot at the vehicle,” she said.
Alex aimed at the vehicle to scare off the burglars also hoping an identifying mark that would help police track it down.
She adds her intentions were not to shoot the men.

Good for her and the cops. These two “Sons of Obama” didn’t get too far away before the police caught up to them, too. The standoff ended with brothers Lucas and Jesus Ortiz in handcuffs. Police said just hours earlier, the pair tried to burglarize a home nearby.
She adds her intentions were not to shoot the men.
Lady, you DON’T point a weapon at a human being unless you have that intention. Congratulations on surviving, now back to class with you!
Glad she got the hang of it.
When the baby arrives, she’ll be even more protective.
Just proves the old saw about, “a conservative is a liberal that’s been bitch-slapped by real life.”
Turning the world around, one liberal life at a time.
I’m glad she’s ok, but shooting at a fleeing vehicle isn’t covered by the law… Hopefully she doesn’t live in Harris county…
Lucky for her she’s in Texas. Just about any other state that last statement would have landed her in jail too.
