Hendricks said he waited until he could shoot without killing his assailant, then fired. The bullet grazed the man's arm, police said.

IMHO he was much to nice.  Everyone would be better off if those POS were dead.

I heard this guy on the radio this morning, he sounds like one great old dude! His only mistake was that he hesitated when firing because he "only wanted to wound them, he did not want to kill anyone" Too bad he shot off the tip of his own finger.

Way to to go Grandpa!!Give em hell!
