How Should an Elderly Couple Defend Themselves from Violent Attack?

A story from Rockford, Illinois. Elderly Rockford man shoots attacker on city’s east side

I wish someone from the Gun Hating part of the Left would explain how an elderly couple should defend themselves from a 32 year old without a firearm.

Rockford, Illinois is about an 85 mile drive northwest of downtown Chicago, or about a 65 mile drive south of Madison, Wisconsin.

On November 25, around 10 a.m., deputies were called to the 8900 block of Bluegrass Drive for a domestic disturbance. The man told police that Nathaniel Brooks, 32, was pushing, punching and slapping the female victim.

The man called 911 and retrieved his handgun, according to court documents. Brooks continued to attack the woman and the man shot him in the buttocks with no intention of killing him, officials reported.

Shooting to wound is not a strategy I like. You never know if it is really going to stop the attack in question. In this case it worked.

The suspect was taken to Javon Bea Hospital and was treated for his gunshot wound. He is now lodged in the Winnebago County Jail.

And as Colion Noir points out in the video, he is going to remeber the old guy, every time he sits down for a while.
