I'm glad her husband's going to be OK and no one else got hurt.

Good riddance. Old people usually have a LOT of pills, but few, if any, are the "Happy" pills these punks are looking for.

#ThugLivesDon'tMatter

The thug stabbed a very old man and beat him with a crowbar. Dead is a huge improvement over alive for a thug like that.

This is reported to be the dead thug, from his Facebook.

Kudos to Grams but she needs a little more range time all four would have been perfect.

They may not prosecute her because the criminal was white. If he had been a ‘person of color’, she would probably be looking at spending the rest of her life in prison up in that liberal hell hole.

Eighty years old, playing cat-and-mouse with a dangerous perp, scared to death and still hitting 3 out of four?

Asking for a perfect shoot is ridiculous. She was probably still pulling the trigger as he was hitting the floor.

We’re being reminded that “a well-armed society is a polite society” one bullet-holed perp at a time...whether shot by an eleven-year old in Alabama, or an 80-year old in Washington state.

A lot of criminals must be religious, because when they see the gun they say "Holy..."

I really don’t think she needs more range time.

Her hit rate, 3 out of 4, is a heck of a lot better than most LEOs achieve. That was with a wheel gun too. Wonder what her barrel length was?

My bottom line _ GREAT SHOOTING! You are alive, your family is alive, and the burglar is dead. have to wonder how many future lives she saved?
