Well, terrible muzzle and trigger finger control, but, otherwise, good discipline.

Home owners do not have the training of LEO's, the rioters, Dems and media are praying for an accidently shooting to demonize gun owners.

"...do not have the training of LEO's..."

Unfortunately, most LEO's lack the consistent and repeated range time to stay proficient. It's usually a budgetary thing.

A couple of years ago I read a statistic that citizens present at shootings were at greater risk of wounds from LEO's than from criminals.

In any event, the lady may well hit her target with the first shot, but, after the recoil does a number on her wrist, all the rest will be random.

I think they are extraordinarily frustrated that a group of AR-15-wielding patriots didn’t mow down any of the cannon fodder the Left had so thoughtfully lined up for them. Now, they are pivoting back to the virus - where they were making more progress.

I do have LE training, but having said that...I do not care if people protecting themselves and their homes have LE training or not. We have to rely on ourselves for that protection. I would blame no one for taking action against a threat. That’s why we have a 2nd amendment.

Should I shoot one or more rioters/trespassers it will not be accidental.

I don’t have the training of LEOs either, but, I know about trigger finger and muzzle discipline. I could see this couple getting indicted for brandishing, but, under the circumstances, I could also easily see them getting no-billed for it.

Much of the online right self-righteously posted comments like this.

DISGUSTING.

It was a real life situation, they defended their lives and property using their God-given right to protect themselves and property with arms, and people who SUPPORT these things slammed and smeared them up one side and down the other for their clothing, their stance, the way they handled the weapons they were bearing.

SCREW ALL OF YOU.
