Owner stops thieves at his building

[KillerFord1977]

Good outcome, but several items were of interest.
- had to load gun prior to confronting perps
- was going to shoot the ground next to perp
- few other flags

Positive outcome, but I had a raised eyebrow on a few comments .

Would-be burglars armed with 'billy club' pick the wrong farmer to try to rob: 'I will shoot'

Washington state farmer Sam Krautscheid was forced to use his firearm to thwart two suspected burglars and held them at gunpoint until deputies arrived.

once i scanned the article, and saw how long a read it was going to be, i fell asleep....

too much to read.

so i'll go with your synopsis, that it ended well for the farmer..

 

[Lock n' Load]

Luckily, he had time to load on this occasion. Hopefully the the responding LEO's counseled him on having his weapon loaded and ready in the future and not leaving his vehicle without it. If even one of the perps had a firearm, this could have been a sad story.

"to see country singer Eric Church"
Well, that's the first mistake right there. Church AIN"T country.
I don't like to Monday morning quarterback but this sticks in my craw. 8th and 4th graders left in the truck. Sorry I'm taking my family out of the AO then come back and deal as/if necessary.
Happy that it worked out.

He said "I'm lucky because... I've had handgun and self-defense training classes." While also stating he had to go load his gun and thought he might have to shoot the ground next to them...
Seems legit
