Here's something that I was just sent recently that hopefully will cheer up and give back the optimism you all seem to have lost about kids these days:
Butte, Montana
November 5, 2006
Home invasion gone wrong for criminals
Two illegal aliens, Ralphel Resindez 23 and Enrico Garza 26, probably
believed they would easily overpower a home alone, 11 year old,
Patricia Harrington after her father had left their two story home.
It seems the two crooks never learned two things:
One, ...they were in Montana and
Two, Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was nine.
Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the
front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room and grabbed
his 12 gauge, Mossberg 500 shotgun.
Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only to be the
first to catch a near point-blank blast of buck shot from the 11 year old's
knee crouch aim. He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals. When Garza
ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and
staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive.
It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45
caliber handgun he had taken from another home invasion robbery. That victim,
50 year old David Burien, was not so lucky as he died from stab wounds to
the chest.
Again, ...Nice Shootin' Patricia !!!!
GUN CONTROL means hitting what you're shootin' at!
