Kids Should Have Guns
...if they're like this kid. Nice job, Chris!
Chris Gaither was home alone “petting the dogs” on Wednesday morning when he heard a noise upstairs.
The 11-year-old boy from Talladega, Ala., told NBC affiliate WVTM-TV that he was scared, so he grabbed a knife and steadied himself. Chris said that a man appeared on the stairwell, but when confronted, he ran back up upstairs. When the man reappeared moments later, the boy told WVTM-TV, the individual was holding a gun.
“When he was coming down the stairs, that’s when he told me he was going to kill me, f-you and all that,” Chris said.
Instead of running, Chris told the station, he upgraded his weaponry, picking up a 9mm handgun that was in the home.

A brave boy, but he made a fundamental mistake. If there is an intruder in the house, go for the gun first, and don't bother with the knife.
ReplyDeleteDo Americans have medals for brave civilians? I would love to See Mr. Obama honouring this splendid young man...
Yes, there's the Presidential Medal of Freedom. I don't know if it's been awarded for self-defense.
ReplyDeleteBut Obama only invites non-white kids who make fake bombs and claim racial oppression to the White House.
