A 70-year-old man defends his grandsons. 'My babies are alive': Man says deadly Rancho Cordova shooting was self defense
So how should a 70-year-old defend himself and his family from a much younger man?
"All of a sudden, the guy kicked the door. Boom and boom! It was that quick," he said.
That was the moment Robert, 70, said he was forced to defend his life and the life of his grandsons, ages four and 14.
"We'd have been dead if he would have got my gun when I pulled it out because he continued to go towards me, he wasn't afraid of me," Robert said.
His grandson woke him up. He didn't hear the glass break.
Rancho Cordova is a city in Sacramento County, California. It is about 15 or 20 miles from downtown Sacramento.
Investigators said Robert has been cooperative and they do not believe he will be arrested or face charges.
Without the means to defend oneself, the old and the infirm would be at the mercy of the young and the violent. I really would like someone from the gun-hating Left to tell me how that would be a better outcome than what we have with this story.
Self-defense is a human right, and it is beginning to look like it might just be your legal right in California.
