As we all know, guns are a terrible choice for self-defense.  The girl in the story below used one, and she missed her chance to be a helpless victim.  =(

That is awesome in a very scary sort of way.  12 to girl defends her home and self with a cricket .22, the bad guys run away and get caught minutes later.

When my wife first told me about this, I thought that story about the champion skeet-shooter nailing the illegal immigrant home invader was making the rounds again.  Life imitating propaganda.  :laugh:
