Who needs a gun?
Cops: SC homeowner shoots, kills alleged intruder | GoUpstate.com
A woman living at the home told deputies she was sitting on the couch when a man came in and put a gun to her head. She yelled for her husband, who came in and fought with the intruder. The woman said the suspect dropped the gun, which her husband picked up and shot him in the head. Deputies say a second suspect fled the home and hasn't been found.
Accidents happen.
How do accidental drownings fit into your pro swimming pool agenda?
Didn't realize I had a pro swimming pool agenda. Weird, thanks for letting me know.
Well I haven't seen post whining about swimming pools so I assume you're not for banning them or restricting who can install one.
What about all the babies that fall out of windows every year? Should we do something about that? Maybe mental health checks on people with windows in their homes. It's for the children's safety after all.
Prolly makes your dick hard just thinking about shooting that guy in the head. Good for you dude.

She was brave to yell to her husband with a gun at her head, and he was brave to tackle the man who was threatening his wife.
The man is dead because he threatened the life of a innocent person in their own home.
This is what guns are for - protecting yourself in your own home.
They see a strong relationship between the two.Why do liberals immediately think of people's penises when they find an argument they can't win?Prolly makes your dick hard just thinking about shooting that guy in the head. Good for you dude.

I didn't know people were using swimming pools as a method to perform violence. Care to share that with me?

Cant do that in Australia can you Noomi. If this happened in your house you would prolly be robbed and dead.
Next time, these homeowners should be better prepared. I recommend one of those 'gun free zone' signs in the front yard. That'll do the trick...
I love these feel good stories !! Great way to start the day!

This is an interesting fact, particularly amid the Democrats' feverish push to ban many different rifles, ostensibly to keep us safe of course.
However, it appears the zeal of Sens. like Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) is misdirected. For in looking at the FBI numbers from 2005 to 2011, the number of murders by hammers and clubs consistently exceeds the number of murders committed with a rifle.
Think about it: In 2005, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 445, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 605. In 2006, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 438, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 618.
And so the list goes, with the actual numbers changing somewhat from year to year, yet the fact that more people are killed with blunt objects each year remains constant.
For example, in 2011, there was 323 murders committed with a rifle but 496 murders committed with hammers and clubs.
While the FBI makes is clear that some of the "murder by rifle" numbers could be adjusted up slightly, when you take into account murders with non-categorized types of guns, it does not change the fact that their annual reports consistently show more lives are taken each year with these blunt objects than are taken with Feinstein's dreaded rifle.
Another interesting fact: According to the FBI, nearly twice as many people are killed by hands and fists each year than are killed by murderers who use rifles.
The bottom line: A rifle ban is as illogical as it is unconstitutional. We face far greater danger from individuals armed with carpenters' tools and a caveman's stick.
And it seems fairly obvious that if more people had a gun, less people would be inclined to try to hit them in the head with a hammer.
Scalia's Friday concerns paralleled his January frustrations about the Constitution being classified as a living document. He advocates for laws of the land as the strongest guides to how to interpret changing circumstances.
Its not a living document," he said at a Southern Methodist University appearance, according to the Dallas Morning News. "Its dead, dead, dead."

There are approximately 300 million firearms in the United States that were legally purchased. Those guns cannot be made illegal to own based upon Article I Section 9 of the US Constitution which prohibits the creation of ex post facto laws. We begin with the comprehension the misconception that the reasons for the 2nd Amendment no longer exist in our society at present. The association related to anarchy (lawlessness) of America ignores the fundamental fact that crime wasn't really any greater then than it is today. In fiscal year 2010, there were about 2,158,000 reported burglaries according to the FBI and in nearly 25% of those there were individuals at home. That statistic indicates about one half million cases in a single year where a direct threat to the lives of individuals existed. We can also note that according to The FBI annual crime rate stats, the sum of murders committed annually by "clubs" (baseball bats) exceed the number of murders committed with a rifle.

About 2 million of these types of home defenses happen without anyone getting shot. Just by the home owner brandishing the gun as the intruder enters the house.

That may be true, but you need to consider the bigger picture.
With a gun, I can kill multiple people in seconds. With a hammer, I could take over a minute to bludgeon someone to death.
No one has ever gone on a mass hammer bashing spree.
