Here's something you might be interested in.
A young Oklahoma mother shot and killed an intruder to protect her 3-month-old baby on New Year's Eve, less than a week after the baby's father died of cancer. But that's not the story.
Sarah McKinley was home, one day after burying her husband, the father of her infant son, when two men who had been stalking her attempted to break in and rape her. At the very least. Now it should be noted that this is Grady County OK, where it often takes law enforcement an hour to respond. Where when the bad gets worse, and the worse gets deadly, all of the PC in the world can get you in trouble, or worse, killed.
Still this young mother felt it necessary to call 911 and ask for permission to shoot the 24 yr old man breaking into her home with a 12 inch butcher knife. Which she did, successfully. But what does it say about our society that she felt she needed to contact authorities first? It says a lot about the culture of group-think over the rights of one.
But it gets weirder. The accomplice escaped, and only was captured when he called 911 to report the shooting. Oh yeah. He thought that his rights as an intruder/rapist had been trampled. Welcome to Backwards-land, USA. A ideological suburb of once great, now broken state of California.
