        I'm so glad Mum and the kids are safe and well, and I'm glad she was able to "disable" the thief. However... Left the keys in the ignition? Left a load weapon in the glove compartment? Left the car unlocked? Bloody hell!

        Most people leave their keys in the ignition and the door unlocked while they are pumping gas, since they are still with their car. Toddlers were strapped in the back w/ a 5pt harness. She is a TX gun owner, one could wager she had the safety on/nothing chambered/was a quick load

        I adore all the "Mom's first mistake was..." Comments. How about "Donny Douchebag should keep his hands of that which is not his less he get his cranium ventilated by a mother of two."?

        I think there are not enough guns. Every mother should be able to defend herself and her children from a motivated attacker.

        Yeah I'm not disputing that he's an idiot. She understandably panicked. I'm just saying I personally wouldn't aim for the head--but if I panicked I could very well hit the head too. I was just surprised; you can get in trouble for excessive force but it's not always controllable.

        If my car was being jacked and my young family was in the backseat, I wouldn't give two shits about "excessive force." I will not sacrifice their lives for some thug.
