    Default Woman in NV shoots stalker

    Sorry if this is a repost but this is a good story. I particularly love the last quote from the woman.

    She continued: “And for the ‘shouldve fired a warning shot’ folks: There are no warning shots, a gun is a deadly force, you only pull that trigger if you are in fear for your life and all other methods of deterring are gone. When he kicked my door in, there was no longer a deterrent preventing harm. Warning shots are dangerous and could hurt the unintended. This is not a wild west movie. That’s what responsible gun ownership is. Ill update once things have calmed down a bit I promise.”

    Good for her. But posting "I shot my stalker" on the internet? I don't think that's such a good idea. "Keep your mouth shut" doesn't only apply to the cops.

    Yeah, the blog post probably wasn't her best idea.

    Some d-bag defense attorney will try to use this against her.

    That has to be a terrifying situation. From her blog it sounds like she knew he was coming for her eventually but didn't know when or where. The perfect example of realizing that Law Enforcement will not be close enough to help when it happens and you can't take the fight to the other person.

    But don't you know? You're supposed to call 911! Not shoot some mother's "good" son. When seconds count, don't worry, the police are only minutes away! -11 or so if you live in the Denver PD jurisdiction, last I heard.

    Yeah, but at least once you are shot, Denver Paramedics are there in 8 minutes.
