Eighty-Six Year Old Texas Grandma Chases Intruder Away with a Can of "Raid" - Video 7/24/09

This story is too good! You have to see it. An 86 year-old grandmother in East Texas and her 69 year-old daughter were in their home when an intruder came into their house and demanded their purses. The 86 year-old grandmother started to call the police and the intruder told her to put the phone down or he would kill them both. She then got up and grabbed a can of "Raid" off the counter and started toward the intruder. He then took off, running out of the house!

" I would have sprayed him right in the face, If I could have got to him."

The 69-year old daughter also credited Jesus saying she prayed several times, "Lord Jesus, get this Devil Demon out of our house."

The 86 year-old concludes by saying that if an intruder comes into your home, "Grab the nearest thing you can find and just let 'em have it."

That's just too good for words!

The intruder was a 28 year-old gang member who was captured by police and is charged with aggravated robbery. . . . . (Watch Video)

Thank goodness she doesn’t live in NYS. The state’d have her up on charges for not having an exterminator’s license.

Oh, well...see, we don’t need firearms for defense. A can of Raid will do it, until Raid is outlawed by the fearful, armed elite. [Little irony and sarcasm there.]

Any place in Texas, where you have to have a can of bug killer on the counter is a rough place. Any rough place in Texas that has an 86 year old woman still mobile and alive is a DANGEROUS place. Please be polite. Your life may depend on it. And be prepared to do some chores.

The cans of Wasp and Hornet spray are tough. They shoot a concentrated stream about 20 feet straight up, further on the horizontal.

You could hose someone down before they could fart.
