She's also lucky this is Texas. She shot him through the front door as the guy is trying to leave. An anti-gun prosecutor's wet dream.

Yeah, that operator kind of irritated me too. But the video piece they did on her didn't look too good as he was trying to get out the door when she shot him.

She's turned into an instant mini-celeb. She was on Hannity today, telling it all again loud and clear how she could have shot him in the chest, but she aimed for his leg.

Personally, I don't believe she aimed for his leg. Not through the door!

If she dosen't stop talking I afraid she's going to talk herself out of a good position and into a bad one.

yeah i heard sean talking to her too.

She will be on tv tonight.

As for making it crystal clear...i guess it wouldnt effect what they would report, but if for some reason I am made into a mini celeb, I would say all i could on the air!

I hate cringing when someone says stupid stuff, because I don't want us to be molded into PC-speak. But I'm worried when their mouths might get them into a bad position legally, or when they make us all sound like trigger-happy goons. (Not just "Granny", but others who've been in the news.)

Just BTW, she's a pretty good lookin' bird for 66. If I was 20 years older and single, I'd give her a call. :wink:

I too, was p'd off at that dispatcher. Mark Davis, on WBAP 820 really had good comments about that yesterday.

I told my wife last night that grandma needs to stop with the "look at me I am a celebrity" stuff. Its gonna bit her in the butt.

She was on EVERY radio station in Dallas that would have her yesterday. All of her statements are recorded and can be used against her if some prosecutor decides to take that path.

I think what she did was great and I support her; however, I believe she shot at him while fleeing at one point?

I just hope she STOPS TALKING TO THE MEDIA!!!!!

Yeah...The 15 minutes is over...

She made her fame and friends in the pro community, and certainly had the guy dead to rights...

I hope someone close to her lets her in on the idea...I don't think anyone blames her for being as open (talkative) as she is about this incident, we pretty much don't want some over-zealous lawyer (present company excluded) getting happy feet and filing some lawsuit on her for some reason on behalf of the dunderhead she shot...

I'm still glad she came out ahead on this thing...

"Get the police out here or he's a dead man!"

Hmmmmm. That can't be a good thing for her.

This incident could be very good for Texas CHL and the Pro Gun interest if handled properly.

Hannity is still talking about it...

He just played the 911 tape again in its entirety...

What did Hannity have to say. When I used to listen to him he didn't strike me as very pro gun. Each time the gun issue was brought up he would go to commercial or skirt the issue.

I'm glad she shot the dirtbag, but wish she would shutup.

Sean Hannity had an anti-gun individual on his show tonight and Sean's comments definitely make him a pro-gun guy.
