You’re a 64-year-old disabled woman living alone when a woman high on drugs breaks into your home and starts attacking you. What do you do? What Obama and the Democrats want you to do is call 911 and wait patiently for the police to come and (ahem) “rescue” you, maybe in about twenty minutes or so. If you’re Mabel Fletcher, of Middletown, Ohio, you grab your Glock 9 mm and start firing. The intruder runs away and police later arrest her.
Fletcher, who got herself a concealed carry permit in June, had quite a harrowing night. Aside from being quite nearsighted, she’s had a stroke and has heart problems and diabetes. On top of this, she lives alone. Still, when her dog Benji woke her up just after midnight, she knew what to do. She grabbed her Glock and held it ready.

Why would she need a concealed carry permit in her home?
Just today I heard of an eighty-nine year old lady who woke up to two would-be burglers in her home. She grabbed her cane and proceede to flog them until they ran.
her would-be robbers had been involved in several other break-ins in the area and were busted when they were in the local bar telling a buddy about the “crazy old lady with a cane”.
When I am old and infirm I will hold onto the right that I can still be blind and fire my weapon indiscriminately at a perceived threat on my property until I get a warm and fuzzy.
SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED !!
“Because they’re *lucky* dimes.”
I love it!
She sort of looks like the spawn of Big Sis - Janet what’s her name.
Looks like MSNBC’s Rachell Madcow
In the People’s Republik of Connecticut, you need a permit to purchase ANY firearm or ammunition. You knows to prevent criminal for getting guns.
Reminds me of Milla Jovovich in “Resident Evil” except she used Quarters.
God, she is so hot.
You can’t buy luck. Good luck, at least. Bad luck is free.
I’d like to add I omitted a lot of graphic details from that story, for the sake of good taste. To put it in context, however, you have to wonder how bad a crime scene has to be before old, hardened cops lose their lunch.
In past, when I’ve told that story, someone brings up “miner’s loads”, which means dripping paraffin over the shot to theoretically make it clump for a bit after it leaves the barrel. I’ve been wanting to test that theory for a while, in that it sounds a bit suspect, like “miner’s chapstick”.
The trouble is that the diameter of a quarter is .955 inche, but the nominal size of a 12 gauge bore is .729 inch.
Diameter of a dime is .705 inch.
Yeah, but nothing in movies is real. Especially zombies.
Good catch though.
I guess Milla distracted me from that fact.
