Halo

Sounds like she generously missed the target.
Seriously, this is a non-issue blown out of proportion. If anything it proves that having a gun in the home hidden from plain view and when people are properly trained, can save lives. Had she NOT had the gun who knows what the hell that idiot would have done.

Police were nowhere near at the time of the incident.

And he was repeatedly breaking and entering, a crime when last I checked.
Why is this news? She has a right to defend herself "to the wall" if there's an intruder in her home. He'll think twice before doing that again and others will too.
