Nadine Teter is a hero. She might not think so, but she's an inspiration to me. The California resident refused to be a victim in October of last year, when a man broke into her home and charged her.
Nadine used her firearm to defend herself, wounding the intruder who had chased her through her home and out into her backyard. The shots finally forced the intruder to flee. A short time later, both he and his accomplice (his own mother drove the getaway car, by the way) were arrested by police.
Now the pair has
been convicted for their crimes, and will soon face sentencing. And Nadine says she's glad she was able to defend herself. She told the media in Santa Clarita, California, "You're looking at him or me. My life or his life. I was not going to get raped. I was not going to get murdered. There was no way-and I didn't."
I hope the politicians in San Francisco hear this story. After all, they're still trying to ban residents from owning handguns. And if you live in San Francisco, you might ask your local leaders why they want you to have fewer rights, fewer choices, and less safety than women like Nadine Teter.
