$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Revi', 'I') think the only reason to use a gun is a home invasion. Ask them to leave, and if they don't, then it may be time to use a weapon.
I think this story may have a few angles we just don't know about, but there are lots of home invasions.
The best thing to do is to lock your door. Then it only becomes neccesary if people succeed in breaking in, and you will have time to call 911 in the meantime.
I'd much rather live in a place where we didn't have to worry about any of this, but unfortunately we don't.
This isn't your typical B&E. The guy breaking in was well known to the Senator and the Senator seems to have a whirl of other allegations around him. It almost seems like a political hit going on. Last year, some guy said the senator fondled him when he was 15 but now that the Senator has been indicted for using the gun to stop the intruder, the fondling guy recanted his story.
Anyway, the title of the thread should be changed to "Pro-Gun Senator Shoots Man"
