Alphecca: Woman Shoots Burglar

Woman Shoots Burglar

Yet another... From the Daily Comet (LA):

A Clinton area woman shot and killed a man who beat and stabbed her after breaking into her house early Wednesday, an East Feliciana Parish Sheriffs Office spokesman said.

Det. Don McKey said Arthur Sanford, 44, of Clinton, died from a gunshot wound suffered during a struggle with the woman around 2:20 a.m.
It happened on Plank Road, south of Clinton, McKey said.

Sanford had apparently crawled into the home through a fireplace wood box that opens inside and outside the house, McKey said. The woman was treated at a hospital for her injuries and released.

This is one of several stories I've posted about in the last 24 hours. Have you noticed how they all come from smaller newspapers and how there are no biased statements within the reports?

Fox Butterfield of the New York Times could learn a lesson from these reporters. Of course, he would never bother writing about people properly defending themselves with firearms. That doesn't fit in with the agenda of the New York Times which is to only show guns as evil things that only cops should have. [What about that story from yesterday of the cop selling guns illegally?]

What surprises me most about this story is not the shooting, but that any woman would want to live in "a Clinton area"

Your comments are welcome. You don't need to enter a URL and you don't need a "valid" email address, either. Note though that MT Blacklist is installed to flag suspiciously spam-like strings. Unfortunately, because of the bastard spammers, the strings "google.com" and "yahoo.com" (even in your email address) are currently banned as well. So are strings such as "cialis" (a common spam) which rules out words such as "socialism". Try putting a hyphan in a word like that.
