15yr old uses AR15 to protect self and sister

[tuj]

Interesting because they mention 'assault weapon' in reference to the AR and because this happened near me. Home invasion type attack. Old news but interesting. KHOU local news video report (not my capture):

Good on the young man.

What a brave young man, and the best big brother any sister could ask for.
Fantastic story.

Well ... so much for maintaining that the AR15 (or other "A" weapons) don't have a DEFENSIVE purpose.

What's interesting is that you could post 100 such cases a day and it wouldn't make one whit of difference.

The commies don't want logic, reason or proof. They want your guns and they'll burn down America to do it.

as our department of homeland security calls the AR types of guns now. Personal defense weapons. And the name is sure more fitting. jim

For them it's personal defense weapon, but for us it's assault weapon. This is obviously reflected in anti-gun laws, such as the federal AWB, that exempt government officials. Since our government is of the people, this means that they are the people, and therefore we are...something else....

The adult suspect survived multiple gunshot wounds from an AR15? Piers Morgan will be shocked to learn that the man wasn’t vaporized after the first shot.

Great job! This could have been a terrible tragedy for the family if not for the courage and calm thinking of this young man. His parents should be very proud, as I am sure they are.

This happened in 2010. Not exactly new news.
