Haven't seen this posted anywhere yet, thought I'd share.

""The owner asked the man to leave the property that the man was on and the man refused and stood up and started advancing toward the homeowner with a machete and a bottle of booze and then threatened to kill the homeowner and raised the machete over his head and then at that time, the homeowner feared for his life and discharged two rounds from a handgun," said Eureka Police Chief Andrew Mills. Chief mills says the property owner was within his legal rights because he had the right to defend himself based on a credible threat."

Don't see anything wrong.

Two rounds the chest and the attacker survived? Must have been a 9mm!





Ok, ok, just kidding ;-) I shoot a 9mm myself. Glad the homeowner didn't get whacked by that machete wielding trespasser and had the means to defend himself.
