Las Vegas TV station KVVU reported that the attacker, whom the woman briefly dated before he began stalking her, kicked her apartment door down at about 1 a.m. on Sept. 26. She shot at him twice, hitting him once, according to the TV station.
Police soon found the man hiding behind bushes, bloodied from a gunshot wound. The suspect was charged with home invasion and aggravated stalking.
The woman, who went unnamed in the KVVU report, told the station she had begun receiving death threats and obsessive text messages from the 22-year-old man.

(37,158 posts)The caption in the online post was "I'm writing this and staring at the mess police left for me, in a bit of a fog. After 6 months of stalking and threats against my life my stalker finally snapped and decided to kick my door in and make good on his promise."
The photo is of a door with something (tape?) over the broken areas and two arrows pointing to bullet holes.
Not seeing what your problem is with someone defending themselves from a real and serious threat.

(8,515 posts)NRA and Republicans are always looking for the isolated incidents when guns actually are positive factor in situations such as this..
How anyone could feel that I am criticizing someone who is defending themselves is beyond me..
My point is how the NRA will be pointing to this very isolated circumstance as a major reason why are country should be armed to the hilt.....And thats the crap Im referring to..
But I certainly didnt do a very good job explaining this in my Post...
