An Atlanta mom took matters into her own hands on Friday when confronting an intruder. The unidentified woman hid with her 9-year-old twins in a crawlspace as a man broke into her house and began rummaging through it. The alleged burglar, Paul Ali Slater, eventually found the family’s hiding space, but not before finding himself staring down the barrel of a .38 revolver.

“ding himself staring down the barrel of a .38 revolver. The woman fired six shots, five of which hit Slater in the face and neck, but he managed to flee after the family ran to a neighbor’s house. Slater is expected to survive”

A larger caliber is in order here.

Damn! I woulda thought he’d at least bleed out from that.

Great shootin’ mom!

The “Obama’s Son” burgler was actually at little risk, because as is well known, Urban Ferals use of their cranial content is very minimal.

Five shots to the face and neck from a .38?

1) She's been spending time at the range.
2) He's a tough SOB.

Poor misunderstood soul!

This is a call to action! The liberals must show solidarity with the burglar, and protest outside this evil gun owner’s home! This travesty cannot go unanswered!

This is exactly why we must get firearms out of the hands of the bible-clinging, gun-clutching, white-trash hillbillies that overrun Amerika.

This poor man was just pursuing his chosen vocation, trying to eke out a meager living, and this woman committed an OSHA violation by resisting him.

Self-defense against Eric Holder's people needs to be a crime.

Kudos to the mom. Tight shot group. She’s ready to move up to a .45. Bigger holes.

Unfortunate.

Anyone who invades the living space of a peaceful citizen deserves whatever the peaceful citizen can do in defense.

Sometimes you need a 30 round mag.

Another report had him shot three times in the torso, stomach liver and lung injuries, and two shots to neck and head. Still the thug ( the mug shot you expect ) kept moving. Through and through wounds. Ball ammo apparently.

Just when he was starting to turn his life around. He turned around and ran.
The only good decision he ever made.
Too bad we’re all paying for his treatment. We need to buy that lady some hollow points. I assume she is small framed and might not be able to handle a 45. Better she keeps what she seems to be good at shooting. I don’t think I could do that well in a pinch.

I'm sure these dirt-bags will be on this like flies on horse crap. BTW, I didn't catch it from the post, but was this burglar one of Holder's people? Just asking.
