Looks like the NRA wants real stories for ABC's 20/20. If you got 'em, share 'em, give gun ownership a POSITIVE spin for a change..


..if ABC will allow it.

Hell, I have lived in NLV almost my whole life, and I have a bunch of them. The most recent happened last year. at 4:30 in the morning my "inside dogs" started barking and growling. I thought that it was my ex-girlfriends kid and that he forgot his key. This went on for 20 minutes, then I felt the air pressure change when the door opened. The dogs quit barking, but were still growling! I grabbed my Kimber and went to check it out. There was some asshole in my living room caseing the place out! My 73 yr. old Uncle was in town and sleeping on the couch about four feet from this idiot. I flipped on the hall light and yelled "who the fuck are you". He jumped backwards and fell into a chair. I told him to show me his hands, and got nothing, then amonos arriba, and then he started to get up. I grabbed him by the hair and rammed the barrel of my .45 into the back of his ear. This fucker decided that it was time to fight and started to get up, and I decided that it was time for him to go down! I clocked him with my Kimber in the side of his head, and rung his bells pretty good, because he quit fighting. (Is everyone keeping up with the mistakes that I made?) I got 911 on the phone, told them what was happening, then he started reaching in his pockets. I dropped the phone and yelled at him to get his hands out of his pockets. Now I'm squeezing the trigger, thinking that I have one hell of a mess to clean up, and he said, "oh well', and just laid there. North town showed up and about six cops jumped on him at the same time, HARD!!! That brought a grin to my facehe Then it went to Court and he pled out and got two years, PRO-FUCKING-BATIONhez

It being ABC don't hold your hopes high they carry The Rosie O' Piggie(The View) Show along with her Bowser breathed pal Joy.

Best of Luck folks on your endeavor I refuse to watch ABC for one and sent ABC my disapprovals to boot(like that will make a can of empty Pork and Beans)


I believe the best chance anyone has is the female/screaming baby scenario in the grocer's parking lot being acossted or threatened at knife point then pulls her CCW and cranks off a center mass dropping the scumbag into instant crumpled mass of Sh*t

Just Opinion

What is the loudest sound in the world? You got it, CLICK! I had a tree business for about 12 years, and my first partner decided that he liked crack. I split ways with him and got a new one, and then about a year later, he showed up at my house wanting to borrow tools. He was all cracked out and drunk, and I could see that this situation was not going to turn out very well! I had spent the weekend out at the lake, and was sunburnt and totaly wiped out, and the last thing that I wanted was for this asshole to come over and start shit. He new every move that I was going to make, and was like a shadow on me! I finally got a brake when he went to the door and called in his other two friends. I managed to bolt to the bedroom and got my gun, and when I turned around, he was standing in the doorway with a shovel! He pulled back to swing it, and thats when my ears exploded from the sound of "click!" I forgot to load it back up after we got back from the lakeHe  they left, the police showed up, and wanted to get him for just trespassing, (sound familier), Untill a couple of days later he took a shot at a Cop with a sawed off shotgun. then the charges got bumped up to attempted murderhe Somehow he got out, and before sentencing, he went to commiefornia, got into another chase with the law, and ran off a five story building braking his feet and legs up pretty good. I haven't heard from him since.

I haven't had to yet, and I'm not going to make a story up, but God help me, I'm one jumpy and protective momma-bear at night time.... and you better believe I'm ready, able, and willing to skin that smoke wagon if I need to.  God forbid, of course.

I'll be watching that episode.  In fact, maybe I'll e-mail them and tell them what it's like to be a law abiding, contributing, sane (although that's debatable, of course) CCW holder, even if you HAVEN'T had to use it yet.

I am the same way.  No one will come between me and my son without someone getting hurt. I don't want to have to use my gun but I will if it means protecting my family.

Bedhead, I hope you don't think that I am making up these storys, they are all true. this is life in the "getto". I was here first, (when it was a good neighborhood), and its still part of the USA. I'll be damned if some idiots are going to run me out of my own home, or even city, until I am ready to go

Nope, not implying that at all- I meant I wasn't going to make a story up to e-mail to ABC for publicity.  And believe me, between being born and raised here myself, and my job, I know where most of the ghettos are.... they're all around us AND GROWING FAST!  (but that's another story....)

I re-read it and see how you could've interpretted it that way, but I was too tired to think of another way to word it so that you wouldn't.  As you can tell, I still tired.  No worries.

Kind of a self defense story.

82-Year-Old Ex-Beauty Queen Stops Intruder by Shooting Out Tires, foxnews


Saturday, April 21, 2007

WAYNESBURG, Ky.  —  Miss America 1944 has a talent that likely has never appeared on a beauty pageant stage: She fired a handgun to shoot out a vehicle's tires and stop an intruder.

Venus Ramey, 82, confronted a man on her farm in south-central Kentucky last week after she saw her dog run into a storage building where thieves had previously made off with old farm equipment.

Ramey said the man told her he would leave. "I said, 'Oh, no you won't,' and I shot their tires so they couldn't leave," Ramey said.

She had to balance on her walker as she pulled out a snub-nosed .38-caliber handgun.

"I didn't even think twice. I just went and did it," she said. "If they'd even dared come close to me, they'd be 6 feet under by now."

Ramey then flagged down a passing motorist, who called 911.

Curtis Parrish of Ohio was charged with misdemeanor trespassing, Deputy Dan Gilliam said. The man's hometown wasn't immediately available. Three other people were questioned but were not arrested.

After winning the pageant with her singing, dancing and comedic talents, Ramey sold war bonds and her picture was adorned on a B-17 that made missions over Germany in World War II, according to the Miss America Web site.

Ramey lived in Cincinnati for several years and was instrumental in helping rejuvenate Over-the-Rhine historic buildings. She returned to Kentucky in 1990 to live on her farm.

"I'm trying to live a quiet, peaceful life and stay out of trouble, and all it is, is one thing after another," she said.
