Might have ended worse if there were multiple attackers. I don't think we'll see this on Diane Sawyer--

Glad it ended up ok for her and her children..

These stories need to make the national news but we all know how that goes..

 

She did a great job...

Damn..she 's a good shot

Actually the title should be "This is what the 2A is good for"

Feel good story. To bad it won't reach the national news level.

Semi auto pistol would have ventilated him real good. I'm sharing this one on facebook.

Terminal ballistics of pistol rounds pale in comparison to those of rifle rounds.

12 gauge and it would've been a one shot stop.

Along those lines, I was watching WABCTV Ch 7 news last night, and the lead story was about two NYC cops shot. The reporter noted first that the criminal (shot dead by the cops) had an arrest and prison record 'as long as your arm and we couldn't even go thru it in the whole news cast' then proceeded into 'take a look at this GUN <picture of gun> a Taurus 9MM high powered semi automatic pistol with a DEADLY extra feature--a flashlight GLUED to the gun--to increase the DEADLY accuracy of the weapon'

Then the obligatory appearance by Bloomtoid, saying its' guns guns guns that are the main danger to cops in NYC' . So about 10% the fact that this was adult life long criminal with multiple convictions, and teh reast the SCARY guns that the criminal got ILLEAGLLY.

 

 

This is the KEY LINE IMO

 

He has been arrested six other times in the county since 2008

 

YET he is free to prey again....

Maybe she was fighting her way to her shotgun? We don't know that.

 

But damn it, right again Ray...

Its the fact that these savages are allowed back on the streets that is the real danger to everybody...not just the police

He's been arrested a total of 7 times since 2008? And he broke into a woman's house when she was alone with her kids? Let me show you my shocked face...

 

 

Don't worry, if he survives, he'll be arrested again!

She shot him five times !!! and he was still alive.

Here's an idea instead of banning guns why not just make the penalties for using a gun in a crime more strict. How about a 3 strike and you're locked up for good law? Why have this revolving door of criminals? It's amazing these guys are in and out of prison so quickly yet thabks to mandatory sentencing the guy that gets caught with a little weed sits in jail for years. Our criminal justice system is broken.

Ha this is my favorite line of the story "He said if Slater survives the night, doctors will try to operate in the morning to repair the damage" most would get immediate attention but there like well just wait and see if he survives the night

 

 

Bingo!.... donuts......errrr. I mean cigars all around....

 

 

Sri couldn't resist the reference...... lmao

 

Donuts are ok..just not in uniform.

problem is if this came to the media they would portray it as all she needed was a revolver to be safe so nobody needs a semi auto because this lady did it with a revolver.

Another recent instance or two of women with guns stopping criminals, in Wyoming--

LOL...*I* wouldnt either......

 

not stealign the thread but are you coming up???

 

I have vacation so there is a good chance i will be up this week. Its a long trip sucks i have to do it twice

Damn..she 's a good shot

 

5 out of 6 hits in a major stress situation, nice shooting indeed.

 

"He's been arrested a total of 7 times since 2008?"

 

Probably better off for everyone if she also had a heart shot, but she got most of the other vitals.

Anyone else wondering how this guy took four 38's, including the lungs, face, and neck and survived? That's impressive.

Even more impressive is the bullet trajectory:

 

"Chapman said Slater was shot in the face and neck... Slater has been placed on a ventilator and suffers from punctured lungs, a punctured liver and a punctured stomach."

 

Slater must have one of them neck livers!

Real reason? Housing them in jail is incredibly expensive. The "good old days" of bread, water, and cracking rocks are gone. Don't get me wrong I've visited one of NJ's max security prisons (on a tour lol) and I would not want to live there, but it's not a spartan existence at all. The prisons are also packed as it is. We need more of them, but where is the money going to come from? Prisons is something I wouldn't mind my tax money going towards.

 

you are forgetting the NIMBY factor.

Im guessing he was coming up through the Hatchway as she was shooting down.....one thing that has always amazed me, is the similarity to Roaches that most Skells show...things that would normally Kill your average citizen outright, leave these Sh!tbags still breathing

Husband should get her a .357 for Valentines day.
