It's refreshing to read stories like these even if they don't happen in Ohio, and its great to hear that nobody, especially Sandra, was hurt in the ordeal.
Dispatch: “Ma'am, are you holding him at gunpoint?”
Sandra: “Yes, I am. And if he moves towards me, I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill. I don't want to have to kill him.”
The last sentence of that 911 transcript is so telling of the self-defense mindset. In the past ten years that I've been involved in grassroots activism I've never once met anyone in my life who has wanted to use deadly force.

With the likes of the Brady Campaign calling reform bills "Make my day" and "shoot first" legislation the average person would probably be surprised to hear "I don't want to have to kill him" on a 911 transcript.

Perhaps Sandra's neighbor summed up the situation better than anyone else when it comes to violence against the elderly.

"Don't mess with the gray haired people! We still got a lot of fight in us."
