That is one sordid story, full of plenty of others, such as:

"Okay, now the Sargeant will help you fill out the paperwork."
"Name?"
"Murry Schmuck"
"OCcupation?"
"Drug Dealer"

One tough 11 year old.

Hope he gets through it alright. Killing someone can take its toll on ya, I hear. Also hope he doesn't follow the trend (i.e parent(s) in jail, children go to jail (eventually).

I'd like to have a gun, I can tell ya that much. Cannot keep my shotguns here, because there ain't any room for a proper safe (mandatory by law here), and I live in a very rough neighborhood.

StSanta, his parents or sister never had any convictions if I am reading this story right, the sister had known the robber, but never dated him.  He, on the other hand, had a criminal history.

The kid had a father who taught him the rules of the road with firearms, and target shooting...sounds like the kid will be just fine.

Incidently, the shot he took was a very risky one, he got very lucky.  Its gonna be tough on him living with this one.

Seems like a valid link.

Anyway, my dad always pumped one thing into my head as a youngster..."if an intruder breaks into the house, shoot to kill, don't stop shooting till the magazine is empty" (He probably thought I was a terrible shot!)  Of course, being 101st Airborn paratrooper, he was very strict in gun handling, and safety.

Statistics show you are more likely to be shot by your own handgun than you are likely to shoot an intruder breaking into your home.

With todays social environment in the USA? Probably so. Incidently, always posts valid links when you quote statistics, otherwise its simply your opinion.  Stats can be skewed if surveyed by UCLA or by NRA, either way, you can get stats to work for your cause if you do the polling, investigation *your* way.

Ban Handguns!!!
« Reply #14 on: February 18, 2002, 11:36:08 AM »
Personally,I think handguns should be banned...Being in the posession of one should = a lengthy jail sentence...Gun collectors should be able to retain thier pistols if they are registered with the trigger disabled.

Darn things are too concealable and all too often traded like drugs...It gives the crime society a big advantage when they know that packing a pistol is low risk and potential bail situation if they get caught.

Make it a automatic 5 years no parole for possession and 10 years if you carry one durring a crime...We are taking a hard line on terrorists,why can't we do the same on handgun crime?(Sawed off shotgun=Handgun)

If you like hunting,God bless you and have fun...Your rifle of choice is like my heavy action Muskie fishing rod..A tool..It is not as likely to be used in a crime because it's not concealable and takes skill to hit a target with it...

The fact that this gifted child used a pistol is moot...He could have easily gone upstairs and loaded a rifle and done the same excellant self defense shooting ...

My point being that concealable pistols give the advantage to perps...I see no purpose in them so ban them!!!
