He wasn't worth the round.

The robber made things personal. The guy's response was up close and personal in the way a shotgun shell just wouldn't be.

I'd guess that the shotgun might have misfired, or been stored unloaded. I suspect the weapon will be cleaned and loaded with fresh ammunition just in case history repeats itself.

Gotta wipe the butt of that shotgun! Good Job! I'm glad you kept going till he could not sue you!

I beg to differ sir, #4 buckshot close in is very personal.

BTW, I have an Uncle Bill in Texas, do you know him? I hear it's a big place, so probably more than one of ya.

If your dad owns a carpet cleaning company, then yes. Otherwise, probably not.

That and I'm under the impression these days that shooting a gun in self defense is more likely to get you in trouble than something like this. Clown world.

It's South Carolina, so we have castle doctrine and no civil liability in a shooting.

Man life outside blue hell must be nice. Hopefully some day semi soon I'll be able to join y'all.

That said, I kinda prescribe to the idea of sticking with it and helping to make your place better rather than running from it. Either way, it's hard.

In Tennessee if someone is trespassing on your property and does not leave after warning you are in every right to open fire.
