    Default Grandma uses gun to defend herself

    I was flipping channels today and saw a clip of an old woman with a .38 revolver in her hand. I figured Id see what it was. Turns out it was Inside Edition doing a report of a 70 year old woman who used her .38 snubby to keep an intruder at bay until the cops hauled him off. They had the 911 call and she kept telling the operator "I dont want to kill anybody but if he comes any close Im gonna kill him." I was shocked to see a positive story on such a Hollywood centered "news" show. Anybody else happen to catch it?

    I saw it...did you see where the reporter crouched in the kitchen so she could re-enact the scene? She pointed the revolver right at him! And just seconds before, it showed her closing the cylinder with rounds in it! I about shit until the reporter announced that the gun was unloaded when pointing at him! LOL

    From the story it says she also wants to have a neighborhood meeting to discuss safety in homes. That's awesome for her!

    Unfortunately, they do not make many women like her anymore.
    I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

    I loved it. The dispatcher mentions that there was a car crash and that the suspect might be the one from the crach. She then asks the woman "is he hurt?" If I was the woman with the gun, I'd have said "if you don't get here quick, he's gonna be!"

    Good job grandmom!
