VIDEO Atlanta Woman Opens Fire and Kills Home Invader

You don't mess when homeowners have guns. Heroic.

The Washington Post sets the scene:
Authorities in Georgia are searching for two suspects in a home invasion in which a woman opened fire on armed intruders — swapping gunfire with them, then fatally shooting a third suspect in self-defense, police said.

Surveillance video released by the Gwinnett County Police Department shows the incident unfold in the early morning hours Sept. 16 when authorities said at least three intruders broke into an Atlanta-area home. A woman, who has not been publicly identified by police, appears to emerge from a bedroom still wearing her pajamas, shooting at the suspects running from the gun-smoke-filled scene.

The woman, a business owner in the restaurant industry, told police that about 4 a.m. she and a male housemate heard a possible intruder, so she pulled a handgun and went to search the home, police said in a statement.

After the Dallas shootings where five police officers were ambushed and murdered by an armed thug, the Marxians on TV and in the Media were quick to say that the aphorism that says "what stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" is a myth. I heard it said many times, including by one important leftist commentator on Fox News.

    People on the left were not arguing that this notion has caveats or that it is not true all the time and thus we need less guns on the street or something like that - NO. They called the notion a MYTH.

    Well, here you have actual VIDEO of a woman defending her castle from three armed burglars. That's NO MYTH. She stopped armed bad guys with her gun.
