Disabled 53-Year-Old Woman Uses Firearm To Stop Home Invasion

Deputies said the 18-year-old and a 17-year-old male broke a resident’s patio door window. The 53-year-old disabled resident was home alone when the teens broke the window and reached inside and unlocked the door, according to investigators.
The resident fired one shot, killing the teen who was in front, deputies said.
The second suspect, Aren Lacour, as well as 18-year-old Ayanna Harrison, were detained at the scene. Deputies said Harrison was the driver of a nearby getaway vehicle.
Deputies said the getaway vehicle, a white four-door Mercedes-Benz, is linked to other burglaries in the area.
This is news from greater Houston, Texas.
So once again we learn something here. First of all, home invasions aren’t just with single individuals. More often than not these days, there are multiple individuals involved. You have to be prepared with the sort of weaponry necessary to defend your home and hearth against multiple invaders.
Second, we learn (yet again) that someone doesn’t have to be all tacticool and put rounds down range like Jerry Miculek in order to effect self defense.
I’m not disparaging the idea of getting to the range as often as you can, or steeling your mind for the fight. I’m saying that the notion that fear for your life is incapacitating to someone is just not necessarily true. The home invaders were teens. She was a woman. She was 53 years old. She was disabled.
Enough said. Guns are the great equalizer.

Good Job!
Same for the church in TX.
The Mini-Mussolini with messianic delusions wishes NYPD could do as well.

“All nine people wounded during a dramatic confrontation between police and a gunman outside the Empire State Building were struck by bullets fired by the two officers, police said Saturday, citing ballistics evidence.”
“I believe it was handled well,” Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.

That’s very nice, but it seems to me that we are forced to play along with the left’s culture of victimhood… this is news only because the victim was a “disabled woman” who therefore has a place on the hierarchy of victimhood.
F__k that. Even if you are a strapping 6’5″ white man in perfect health, you have an absolute right to defend your home by force of arms against three “teens” invading with a stolen gun.
Remember that there are states that issue DISCRETIONARY permits to possess a gun even in your own home, and remember this when you look at the ever-growing list of “prohibited” persons… including those who have committed MISDEMEANORS and, under Red Flag laws, people who have been merely accused on hearsay and convicted of NOTHING.
(By the way… was there a racial disparity between the perpetrators and the “disabled” victim??? Inquiring minds want to know…)

Never forget that the would-be gun-banners would rather that disabled 53-year old woman be raped and murdered in her own home rather than having the means to protect herself with a firearm. That’s what gun control is – victim disarmament.

Good to read, thanks for sharing that.
For one, recidivism rate now = 0.
The accomplices will likely be out on modest bail due to “overcrowding” or COVID-19 or something. Hope she holds on to her resolve.

Errata: Maybe for one of them (Lacour) it runs in the family.
