Two would-be home invaders were lucky that they weren’t taking a final exam in Victim Selection 101, because they picked the wrong house.
The 34-second video posted to X by Gun Lovers Club shows the two suspects, one of whom was holding a large revolver, trying to kick the door in over a period of about 15 seconds. That delay in forcing their entry apparently gave the occupant of the house enough time to retrieve a firearm of his own.
Once the door was forced open, after it took our suspects about five kicks, the homeowner fired three rounds, sending the would-be home invaders fleeing. Two to three seconds later, the homeowner fires a couple more rounds at the suspects.
“We don’t see enough here to form a valid opinion,” Second Amendment Foundation President Massad Ayoob told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Critics will claim that the home defender is no longer in danger when the last two shots are fired, but the homeowner may be able to see what we cannot: the suspect with the long barrel revolver or another offender may have, OFF CAMERA, raised the gun toward him, for example. We always have to wait for ALL the evidence to judge.”
We’ve seen the Second Amendment protect also protect 7-Eleven clerks from people who would have strangled them, fathers from being carjacked and innocent people from axe-wilding maniacs.
Authorities say Stephanie Dilyard, who was working at an Oklahoma City-area 7-Eleven declined to accept a counterfeit $100 bill from 59-year-old Kenneth Thompson, who reacted violently to the refusal.
“He threatened me, and said he was gonna slice my head off, and that’s when I tried to call the police. He started throwing things at me, came behind the counter,” Dilyard said. “I tried to run off, but he grabbed his hands around my neck, and pushed me out of the counter space, and that’s when I pulled out my gun and I shot him.”
