Re: 56yr Old Woman shoots and kills intruder. Audi

I have told my kids about this recording and I think I am going to let them listen to the whole thing. I think it is a good lesson in the consequences of self defense. You can hear how confident the lady is in the beginning. She says she doesn't want to but she will kill him dead if he breaks in. It is sort of a matter of fact statement. You can tell that she and her sons have discussed this and that she knows what to do if she is forced to do it.

Then... after the fact... even though she was justified to fire the gun the very real terror that would hit any of us to know that we have taken a human life.

I can tell my family about how to defend themselves in a situation like that... and they should... but nothing compares you for the realization of the true human consequences of what you had to do.
