Miles to Go....

The self defense/RKBA movement still has a ways to go as is evidenced by this incident from the "live free or die" state:
A New Hampshire grandfather has been arrested and is facing a possible prison sentence for firing a shot into the ground and holding a burglar at gunpoint until the cops could arrive.  Dennis Fleming, 61, came home on Saturday night to discover that his home had been robbed. He saw the burglar, Joseph Hebert, 27, climbing out of his neighbor’s window. Mr. Fleming yelled, “Freeze!” and fired a shot into the ground before holding the crook at gunpoint. 

When the police arrived, they arrested Hebert, but instead of a big old “thank you” and a slap on the back for Fleming, he got arrested too, on a charge of reckless conduct.
One step and community at a time, but we do need to make sure and hold such sheriffs and prosecutors accountable when they are up for election.

  1. I have a great respect for 90% of MOST cops, the rest have their heads up their ass on the job.
