Was the intruder Black Bart?

Give that young man some training and a decent gun to protect himself and his Momma. He show gread courage and fortitude, much needed in today’s society.

I’m surprised I got it posted that quickly. Normally my posts of this sort are just a feeble GMTA. :-)

Heck yeah! If I lived there I’d buy him a CO2 powered repeater so he could get more shots off next time!
LOL

Nowadays, he's better known as Youthful Bart.

A CO2 powered rifle could kill the intruder. FACT.
Some of them cost lots of bucks and have a velocity like a .22 rifle.
One of those between the eyes and it is over. Not a toy.
Cudos for the 10 year old.

not the ones that use those little disposable bic lighter sized cartridges.
To: Texas Fossil
He deserves a .22, lots of cartridges, and some training. I would do it for free if I lived in Washington.

Police said Newman tried to get back into the home through an unlocked window, and as the victim tried to shut the window, Newman grabbed her arm.
When the woman couldnt break Newmans grip, her son came into the room with a pump-action BB rifle, police said.
Police said once Newman saw the rifle, he made threats to kill both the victim and her son.
