Nothing better looking than a pretty gun with a beautiful girl attached to it.
Glad they came out OK and no one but the bad guy got killed.

That's what Mayor Bloomberg would have done. Someone should send him this story.
Nope! Bloomberg would have pulled out his AK-47, set the selector to full auto, and splattered the BG all over the place.
Remember, those "common sense" gun laws are only meant for us little people. We can't be trusted, you know.

Yeah. People who have actually been the victim of a crime sometimes tend to be highly motivated not to be a victim again.
In New York it was common wisdom that a liberal was a conservative who hadn't been mugged yet.

Score one for the .38! The caliber that is not suited for a self defense. It did the job in this case, quite well at that.

If she hadn't had the gun that joker might have been left out on a limb !
