Woman Shoots Intruder During 911 Call

Woman Shoots Intruder During 911 Call

The headline reads "Woman Shoots Intruder During 911 Call" and she did employing her "Right to Defend" then she apologized for her actions!  Home alone and armed with a shotgun, 57-year-old Jackson called 911 & begged for help, police couldnt get there before the man broke thru glass door.  

There are a few really important things that occurred during this situation as follows:

1. Donna Jackson dialed 911 to provide a self defense option for all involved; her only options were to wait for the police to arrive or to shoot the intruder dead herself (whichever came first)
   
2. She remained on the phone with 911 operator so she had an account of what happened to prevent lengthy court trial & mounting legal fees (they quote $10k per round)
   
3. When the man got into her house, she SHOT TO KILL!  Jackson stated, "I don't want to have to kill this man, but I'll kill him graveyard dead..."!

The only thing that disturbs me is that Donna Jackson felt she had to apologize for shooting a man dead that was breaking into her home!  Donna Jackson was completely justified in shooting the intruder DEAD, in fact, she did everything RIGHT & should never apologize for [practicing good self defense!

This situation really highlights a topic that I find all too common or familiar with women in society today.  Many women tell me that they do not want to kill someone even if their life is being threatened.   I know, it sounds pretty crazy to me as well but like I said, it is the norm.  Even with that hesitation, every person should practice good self defense practices both mentally and physically.  There are many non-lethal tools out there to assist anyone with any fear or hesitation!

Shaniya's Mom Trafficked Her Daughter to Settle Drug Debt

Shaniya's Mom Trafficked Her to Settle Drug Debt

Where do I even begin with this situation?  Is it for real that a mother could sell her child to settle a drug debt even if it meant her rape and eventual death?  Are there really people out there in this world that could be so cruel and narcissistic?  Did she consider simply selling her daughter, Shaniya Davis, to her father instead to safeguard her child?

"Antoinette Davis, 

Charged With Child Prostitution, 

Is Pregnant Again"

When I read the headline above my stomach sours at the thought of putting the life of a child back in this woman's hands.  I feel that the death penalty should be reserved for people only that do the unthinkable and I will stand up and be the first to say that this woman should be put to death for what she did to her child.  This reality is simply unreal, much like a horror film where campers are gutted.  I feel gutted!

Shaniya's aunt, Carey Lockhart-Davis told Winfrey, "I am disgusted, but yet in so much pain at this point. She was such a vibrant child and such an important part of my life. And it's hard at this point to understand why someone would take this sweet blessing away from me." 

Preliminary autopsy reports indicate Shaniya died from asphyxiation, according to the Fayetteville Police Department, though authorities are still waiting on a series of tests results before making a final conclusion
