Biden: “If it only saves ONE life!”. Yo, Joe? This count?

It also seems to reinforce the meme that those bad guys that use ILLEGAL weapons are often cowards when confronted by good guys standing up to them:

If you’re a woman, imagine being home alone in a rural area when you hear someone rattling your front door. You don’t recognize who they are. You call your husband just as the two teenaged boys break into your house and you see that they are armed. What do you do?

That’s exactly what happened to a woman in the small rural community of Maypearl, Texas, about 45 miles south of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. It was Wednesday afternoon, she was home alone at their farmhouse when she heard her front door rattling. She looked out and saw two young men, one dressed in camouflage and had a gun strapped across his back.

She immediately called her husband and then ran to get her gun. Her husband was just pulling into the driveway when the intruders broke into the house. He entered the house through the back door, grabbed his gun and began shooting at the intruders. A gun fight ensued. The husband was wounded in the side but not seriously. The two teenaged intruders must have realized that they were over matched and rather than face going to jail, they took their own lives.

The two punks couldn’t stand up for the consequences of their actions – they KNEW they were wrong, they KNEW they were going to put one or more folks in danger, and they KNEW someone was going to hurt – and did so anyways.  They KNEW what they were about to do was illegal – and they did it anyways.  Do you think that they would have cared that their weapons were illegal, that their actions were illegal?  Of course not!  Being selfish, being self-centered, having no care about others (in other words, being common criminals) they only were concerned in taking stuff that wasn’t their’s from others to whom it DID belong.  You think they’d care about Joe Biden’s ranting, or Gabby Gifford’s, or the Brady Campaign, Cuomo, the Colorado Legislature – all of whom are absolutely willing to put ordinary law abiding folks at risk for denying them the tools to defend themselves?  The police comment:

“The homeowner was hit. There’s multiple rounds through his house. Actually, one of them went through the side, and is above the bed in the master bedroom.”

Our sheriff is always letting homeowners know to arm themselves. This is one of the reasons why. Sometimes it takes a while for us to get out this far, and they have to take care of it themselves.

“They were in fear for their lives, their house was being broken into, the suspects were armed. Early indications are everything was justified.”

Joe “Two Shot” Biden would have condemned this couple to a world of hurt (or death) if all they could have was a double barreled shotgun.  Two shots – and few are that good in this kind of situation to be 100% accurate.  I’ll take that AR-15 with 30 rounds any day over Biden’s shotgun.

The LT from the Sheriff’s office works for a common sense boss – it IS our responsibility to take care of ourselves; Progressives are WRONG to believe that we should outsource that responsibility to the State (and only the State).
