I love this story! I don't really blame her for not shooting, it just wasn't her nature to kill. Besides, there is SO much paperwork involved when you do that.

This reminds me of two stories. The first was when a student of Jeff Cooper's Gunsite was driving home from just having spent a week learning combat shooting. He was stopped in traffic waiting for the green light when a thug walked up and leaned into his open passenger side window and brandished a knife. The new graduate of the shooting academy stuck his .45 in the thug's face and said "What do you want?" The thug said "I want to be somewhere else."

The second story is the funniest I have ever heard regarding guns. Two NYPD stakeout cops were assigned to stake out a liquor store in a section of town where a robber kept killing the store owners even when they coooperated by giving the robber all the money with no problem. The cops knew they'd have a hard time taking this guy down, so they went prepared. They each had a 12 guage shotgun, a 14 shot Browning auto, and a six shooter for backup. Sure enough, the bad guy came in and held up that liquor store. He was hopped up on herione and felt no pain. When they got an open shot, they began firing. Each emptied their shotguns into the guy and he was down but still trying to reach for his gun, so they went for their autos and emptied those into the guy. He was still struggling to pick his own gun up and return fire, so they went to their revolvers and emptied those into the robber/addict. The guy finally died. The liberal newspapers in NYC had a field day because the bad guy had been shot 52 times. The Chief called in the two cops and askd "Why on God's green earth did you shoot this poor man 52 times?" Their reply was "Because we ran out of ammo."
