Defensive Gun Use of the Day: Gutsy Granny Edition

Dan Zimmerman - comments No comments

“The burglar was first seen smashing windows just after midnight at a business in the 2700 block of North Pittsburgh. A neighbor saw him, called police and then chased after him. As police began tracking him with K-9s, just 15 minutes later that burglar — Sean Denny — showed up at a home in the 2000 block of East Dalton.” He chose poorly . . .

This, from kxly.com:

“Lady called saying that somebody had forced their way into her house, she had grabbed a firearm that she kept for her own personal protection, fired one round, ended up hitting the wall and then she held him at gunpoint in her living while the police responded, (Spokane Police Lieutenant Dean) Sprague said.

That lady was Sandy Mize. She’s a grandmother of so she knows how to deal with unruly behavior.

Authorities said that Mize’s actions couldn’t have been more appropriate, and they recognized her efforts for a job well done by giving her a Spokane Junior Police Badge.

One of her grandchildren will surely know what to do with that badge.

  1. This topic is a sign of despair and despair is not warranted. No bill will pass Congress and outside of a few states where a majority of the voters have decided to be victims of crime gun rights continue to march in the right direction. The states where the right to bear arms is being infringed are pretty much bankrupt and will laying off police. The voters will pay for their follies in the end. Screw ’em.

    • +1. Thank you Td fot that level view. If legislators over-reach the laws can be contested at the Supremes and more good precedent set. Taking the long view its clear this is indeed the trend with Heller, McDonald, Madigam and Kachalsk cases. I do not suggest complacency but rather vigilance and supporting smart lobbying and lawyering with $$$.

  3. RF, I have wondered for some time how you could have stayed in RI this long. I’m in DE at the moment and while a few silly new rules came into being they haven’t gone off the deep end yet.
    Moving is tough, expensive, troubling and sometimes necessary. As long as we can vote with our feet for another state with rules we can live with we will always have an advantage over the UK, Europe, or anywhere else where people have nowhere to run.

  4. “Mr. Manchin started talks this week with Sen. Pat Toomey (R., Pa.), according to an aide familiar with the negotiations.”

    Please call or email Senator Toomey’s office and tell him not to sell us or the Second Amendment out.
