You hear about citizens exercising their Second Amendment rights all the time (my primary source of said entertainment is here), but it’s rarely that you get to see them play out in full-color, high-def thanks to a proactive citizen’s investment in home security cameras.
Amazing video of an attempted home invasion in Tucson. Investigators say the victim fought back by shooting at a group of armed men trying to break into his house. This all happened Thursday afternoon near Cardinal and Irvington on the southwest side.
The is video from a surveillance system overlooking the driveway of the victim’s home. It shows the suspects pull up in a car and jump out. One of the would-be home invaders fires a shot as he runs into the garage. Within seconds several more shots ring out. Investigators say those came from the man inside the home.
Let’s see if we can get the video to embed…
All I have to say is “nice grouping.”
Wow! Nice work!! A grenade might have helped slow their escape too.

Awesome. Good man. And to think my kids ask me why I wear a gun even at the house.

I’m sorry, that SHOULD have been very humerous … BUT … 4 clowns ran in and FOUR clowns ran out.
I sure hope to hell that I do better if they’re ever stupid enough to come “visit” me!

How very strange! I wonder what they were going in there for?
I concur that someone needs to spend more time at the range, though.

Earl Bassett: What kind of fuse is that?
Burt Gummer: Cannon fuse
Earl Bassett: What the hell do you use it for?
Burt Gummer: My cannon!
