Chicago Woman Shoots And Kills Man Who Broke Into Her Home And Began Beating Her
A 28-year-old woman is thankful to have survived a home invasion.
After breaking into her home, 30-year-old Reginald Brown started beating the woman, who was able to get her handgun and end the struggle with a single fatal gun shot to the chest.
Police indicated that the woman, who has a valid FOID card, knew the intruder and that the incident was of a domestic nature. They have also said that expect no charges will be filed for what is being deemed a justifiable homicide.
This short story proves, yet again, the importance of maintaining a readily accessible firearm, not only on your person while out in public, but also in the home.
To me, that means not removing my firearm when I enter my home. It means remaining personally armed at all times. Whenever possible, I recommend carrying on the body… in the home and out of the home.
Though some firearms owners are, for various reasons, uncomfortable actually being armed while in their home, I suggest that you will be more likely to react quickly and decisively should you need to, if you are.
