Now I know we're all supposed to eschew guns and turn toward Bloomberg country and bow occasionally, but please notice that it's the bad guy, the one who kicked in the door that got shot here. That's right - a gun was used for self-defense against two men who were bound and determined to break in.
Now who is going to be the first to post what a tragedy it is that a gun was used or tsk-tsk the barbaric homeowner?
