How to successfully defend your family from intruders...

Excerpt:

...and face no consequences.

(NaturalNews) Midnight, Monday, April 3. Hot Sulphur Springs, Colorado.

A home. Somebody at the door.

Wife makes 911 call, reports a person "behaving very erratically."

Man breaks into the house.

Husband and wife have "altercation" with the man.

Both husband and wife have guns.

They both shoot the man. He dies.

Husband and wife sustain minor injuries. Bosses at work place them on paid leave.

No prosecution, no problem.

New Colorado gun laws, passed in the wake of the Aurora and Sandy Hook massacres, require background checks for all gun purchases and set a limit of 15 rounds on clips. Gun owners in the state fear the background checks are a first step toward targeting all gun owners in the state.

But the forced introduction of this new culture doesn't produce a single ripple or question in the Hot Sulphur Springs home-invasion shooting.

Oh. Wait. That's because...

The wife is a Colorado deputy district attorney and her husband is a sheriff's deputy.

They can shoot a home intruder and no one uses that incident to bray and whine about armed citizens killing criminals. They can get paid leave from work and everybody immediately understands.

Reporters don't bother to press the issue. Was the intruder armed? No question, no answer. Was he really a threat to life and limb? No question, no answer. How exactly did he get into the house? No question, no answer. What are the names of the prosecutor and the sheriff's deputy? No answer.

That's called a clue. A clue about where this new gun culture is really heading. As if we didn't know. Cops and law-enforcement personnel, along with criminals, will have all the guns. Everybody else will have a wooden spoon from the kitchen drawer and a bowl of custard.

Imagine what would have happened if the Hot Sulphur Springs couple had been private citizens, civilians.

"Police are measuring the exact distance from the front door, to see how far the intruder moved into the living room before he was mowed down."

I can see what your getting at but with-out seeing a actual report or even a clip from the local papers I wouldnt say its the Reporters postion to press any issue at this time,,just report what they beleive is fact to the best of their knowledge.

As far as measuring the front door..Hopefully it will help them understand why it took two guns from trained LEO to stop him..And or figure out if larger caliber rounds would have blown him back out the door..This of course is assuming this was a legit shooting, time will tell hopefully.

No, it certainly is, though not just a reporter. It's initially an investigator's job. The point is, had you or I pulled the trigger, we'd be investigated so thoroughly, they'd know, forensically, what we'd had for lunch. All those measurements would be taken, and if they weren't, the press would ask why. But when a member of the exalted class does it, different standards apply.

Don't understand your deep hatred of the law enforcement..

Don't understand your deep hatred of the law enforcement..

I admire peace officers. But modern "LEOs" seem to think they have extra rights, that the Bill of Rights are merely suggestions, that they are above the law, and/or that we're in the military with them above us.
Andy Taylor was a bit too peaceful; but what we've got today are far too close to Barney Fife.

It not hate, it's simply show that when the Gov. have guns & citizens don't - gov. win & can do what ever they pleases.
the point of gun ownership is NOT {only} to protect our property, but to keep Governments at check.
they must take the guns first before they can initiate any takeover. they must, or the peoples will stands up and resists.

 

[jjoerger]

I think that it has a lot to do with where you live.
Florida has the "Stand your ground" law.

You don't know all Colorado state laws. I live there. If the people in the attack would have been a civilian. It would have been the same outcome. We have a make my day law in Colorado. You break in you get shot no problem. The new laws have nothing to do with that law!!!

Claymores and more Claymores...lol

Gee, that really helps him understand.

For those who do not like guns, knives, hatchets,axes, nail-files, needles, awls, screwdrivers,skillets,pots and pans for home defense, here is a dog you do not have to feed and it would get my attention if I was going to break in a place::::

 

[AMonger]

Gee, that really helps him understand.

He's probably not a moron, so it should.

There wouldn't have been an investigation? The citizen shooter wouldn't have found himself in an interrogation room, explaining himself repeatedly? His guns wouldn't have been seized? The press would have assumed everything was copasetic?

The ONLY citizen, in this case, who would have found himself in an interrogation room and his guns seized is one who allowed it. A SMART citizen would have called a lawyer PRIOR to calling the police and NOT allowed the police to do ANYTHING, except maybe cordon off the area, until that lawyer arrived.

Yes, the police have a duty to investigate shootings. They should, however, be required to do so within the confines of the US Constitution (what's left of it) and having a lawyer there would assist them in doing so. I know they would be thankful for the help.

Assuming the lawyer would even come to the scene at all, or in a timely manner. And assuming that the cops don't cuff you & stuff you right away. You're not going to prevent the cops from doing anything at the scene of a homicide, unless, of course, you're a deputy sheriff or with the DA's orifice.

Yup everything would be copasetic. It went as far as a man breaking into a drug dealer house and he shot and killed the intruder. The only thing he got in trouble for is the weed.
