I wonder if she realizes that if one of the burglars tried to take her gun away and she shot him she may have spent the rest of her life in prison.

That is her business. I would guess she didn’t give the thought two shakes.

Nope. Not in Georgia. And certainly not in Hall or Towns Counties.

Even in Atlanta, Athens, Savannah where the local DA might go after you, you’d win quickly on appeal at the state level *IF* a jury convicted you. I cannot imagine a unanimous verdict from a jury even in the blue cities. Not impossible, but highly unlikely.

Not in GA, at least outside of Atlanta.

Not in her own house unless she shoots him 20 times in the back while he is taking a shower.

This is Georgia Hon. Nobody’s going to jail for shooting meth heads on their property. 😏
