14 yr old uses hand gun to protect his siblings
« on: June 23, 2012, 01:05:53 PM »

Since this is Important news that concerns using a gun in self defense, I decided to place it in todays news. Not sure this will make the six o'clock news since it shows a gun in a positive light.

I'm sad to write that this scenario would have resulted in the firearms owner being brought up on a charge of improper firearm storage and probably lost his firearms possession permit just for a starter. The 14 year old would also have been charged with something trumped up.
