Eighty-four-year old Joan Jacobson never imagined she would be shot when she knocked on the door of a Michigan couple’s home, hoping to convince them not to vote for local pro-abortion ballot proposal.
Sharon Harvey answered the door and quickly became “hostile, belligerent, and antagonistic” when she learned Jacobson’s mission, according to David Kallman, Jacobson’s attorney with the Great Lakes Justice Center.
A social media account that appears to be Harvey’s features content strongly pro-abortion and heavily critical of Republicans. She did not immediately respond to requests for comment from The Daily Signal.
In a Thursday phone interview with The Daily Signal, Jacobson insisted that Harvey refused to listen to her, yelling over her, and finally ordering her off the property. The 120 pound woman, who stands at five feet tall, said that Harvey followed her down the porch, onto the sidewalk, continuing to yell at her, before her husband Richard Harvey appeared in the yard carrying a .22 caliber rifle.
“When that registered in my mind, I heard a shot, I felt some pain, and I thought he had hit me in the back,” she said. Jacobson learned at the hospital that the bullet allegedly went through her shoulder and out her back, very narrowly missing her spine. “I was just in shock. I said to myself, ‘Did I just get shot? Did he just shoot me?'”

No way does the Castle Doctrine apply here.
Otherwise, Jehovah’s Witnesses would be getting shot right and left all over the place.
“Doesn’t look like an arrest was made, why?”
Was that a rhetorical question?
“All you’ve done on this thread is blame the victim, FFS!”
I didn’t assign blame. Please don’t misrepresent my posts.
“Michigan State Police are investigating. Ionia County Prosecutor Kyle Butler told News 8 Monday that he’s waiting for police reports before deciding on whether to file charges.”
I won’t hold my breath.
“I won’t hold my breath.”
I bet their will be charges. Are we on?
“I guess Jacobson couldn’t take the hint.”
“Take a hint. If the owner doesn’t want you at their door, politely apologize for the interruption and immediately leave. Common courtesy.”
“She was chased off the property. Read the article.”
“LOL! She is complaining that the owner will not listen to her! What a ....”
“Geeze. Ever hear of common courtesy?”
Your attitude sounds like a liberal. Closed minds. Blame the victim. Be proud
“Your attitude sounds like a liberal. Closed minds. Blame the victim. Be proud”
Look in the mirror.
That’s it? That’s all you got?
Me: I bet their will be charges. Are we on?
You: Your attitude sounds like a liberal. Closed minds. Blame the victim. Be proud
I am a liberal because I think the shooter will be charged? What world are you living in?
Are you trying to bully me?
