This 82 year old woman didn't do too badly.

"I feared for my life, but I wasn't ready to die," she recalled. "I started praying and I asked the Lord to guide my hands" Williams says as she heard the footsteps of the intruders getting closer to her bedroom, she reached into her nightstand and and shot in the direction of their shadows. She struck two of the three intruders, one made it out but was later picked up by police. The other two lay dead in her living room.

Annabelle who is a member of her local neighborhood watch said she has owned a gun for 10 years now, after being mugged once before. "Its a shame you can't sleep at night in your own home where you are supposed to feel safe without being threatened and robbed," she continues. "I purchased the gun hoping I would never have to use it, but I had no idea what they would do if I gave them a chance to get close to me."

Williams fired 5 times hitting one of the teens in the chest and the other in the stomach.

Hmmm...

"Update: After a reader asked me where Mrs. William’s showdown took place I did a bit of fact finding and found that there were very few verifiable facts to back up this story. I can’t say for sure that it was made up, but let’s face it, there is no city mentioned anywhere in the blogs that I sourced the story from, no names of responding officers and no names of assailants. In other words, until someone shows me otherwise, Mrs. Annabelle Williams is fiction. I apologize."

Who cares if it is true or not, it's still a good story & the anti's don't use true stories sometimes too.
