OK, in fairness I have to post this. I believe that it's rare for people to actually use their weapons in self-defense. That still may be true but we just had such an incident here in Georgia.

"Eighty-one-year-old Robert Jenkins said he loaded his wife's handgun and tried to scare off a burglar in his Tucker home, but he fired when the intruder rushed him, according to a family friend. DeKalb police said the shooting was justified, and Jenkins will not be charged in the death of the suspect, a man possibly in his 20s who had not been identified Wednesday."
