Homeowner detains intruder, KKTV, Colorado Springs, Colo. 05/23/13

Posted on May 30, 2013

Jeremy Strong was at home with his wife and son when his wife alerted him to someone attempting to
break into their house. Strong retrieved a gun, went to investigate, and discovered a man who had
broken through one of the home’s windows. Strong aimed his firearm at the intruder, ordered him to
the ground and held him at gunpoint until police could arrive.

Police later determined that the man was likely high on methamphetamines at the time of the
disturbance. A charitable man, despite the damage, Strong has not pressed charges against the
criminal, explaining that the man needs help. (KKTV, Colorado Springs, Colo. 05/23/13)

Thank goodness for guns!

John H.

An excellent example of a man who can handle his gun and has a heart.
To be applauded. I expect he's not a rarity but certainly rare when
compared to the number of idiots who have little common sense and
hearts to match.

He is representative of the vast majority of gun owners, as opposed to the rare exceptions with
which you attempt to troll.

John H.

Rare exceptions? Oh golly, each year 15,000 victims of guns and
17,000 suicide victims and their families might beg to differ with
you.

Let's see, that's about 7/20's of 1%. Pretty small part of the population. Less than half a percent
would, in my book, be considered a pretty rare exception.

John H.

A ridiculous conclusion by any stretch of the imagination.

Using your logic, there was no reason to respond to or feel badly
about 911 or the 2700 lives lost. They only represent 1/20th of 1%.

No, I think you should post something about Islamic jihadists every day.

John H.


They're busy killing each other, we're busy killing each other.

I'm more concerned with us.


Racist.


Oh brother... why can't you guys stop calling names?

It's not really name calling if it's a statement about someone's true
character.
