Mother-daughter duo shoot would-be robber in their liquor store

Sounds great, NRA would love them until...

The man managed to grab the mother and that's when the daughter shot him again. He was taken to a hospital in critical condition.

In the ABC story, he pistol whipped the mother. And the end the mother said her daughter will not longer work there.

Yes, I can see a teacher, caught off guard, trying to shoot an intruder who would easily grab the weapon aimed at him

A teacher in Utah accidentally shot herself in the leg Thursday inside an elementary school building. In the bathroom of the teacher’s lounge. She’s a sixth grade teacher.

State law allows individuals to obtain a concealed-weapons permit and carry firearms onto school campuses, following the completion of a safety training course.

Obviously she did not listen at the training course. Nor did she do her homework. And the dog ate her good sense.

Last week a professor at Idaho State University shot himself in the foot as he was strolling across campus.

I think he came back in a couple of times, and could have easily just left with the money. I don't think this would have ended well if they weren't armed.
