Default News not fit for MSM

This boy has been trained well.

Bellingham boy’s defense of mom with BB gun a genuine hero tale
By Dave Workman, Seattle Gun Rights Examiner

A story that should streak across the internet but for one key fact – it involved the defensive use of a gun, in this case a BB gun – is the kind of stuff that legends are made from, and so are little heroes.

The unidentified 10-year-old whose tale of heroism is being told by the Bellingham Herald, Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Associated Press this morning is also the kind of story that makes gun prohibitionists cringe. It throws water on the notion that kids and guns – even BB guns – don’t mix. In this case, they mixed very well for an outcome of an otherwise harrowing story that could have gone very bad as Thanksgiving looms on the horizon.

The son then returned with a pump-action BB rifle. When Newman saw the rifle he threatened to kill the boy and the mother…so the boy shot him in the face as many as four times.—Bellingham Herald

The boy deserves a good 22 and mama needs to get and learn how to use a shotgun and a revolver, Mossberg 20 gauge and S&W 38 spcl any model should be a nice start. lessons for both in how to shoot, a place to shoot and taught how to clean and maintain their guns. Their drunken woman beating tenant should have to pay the costs for the guns, ammo and coaching before given a one way ticket to where that kind of behavior is acceptable.... Saudi Arabia or Iran. They know what to do with drunks. Probably make him an Imam.
