Mama Grizzley, Okie Style - Teen Mom Blows Away Intruder Who Tried To Break In



Now, this story made me smile..

A young 18-year-old teen mother in Oklahoma City took out an intruder to protect herself and her 3-month-old baby on New Year's Eve, less than a week after the baby's father died of cancer.

Sarah McKinley said that on Christmas Day, the same day of her husband's funeral, a man later identified as Justin Martin dropped by, claiming that he was a neighbor who just wanted to say hello. Mrs. McKinley didn't fall for that and refused to let him in.

On New Year's Eve Martin returned with another man, Dustin Stewart, and this time was armed with a 12-inch hunting knife. They'd obviously been scoping things out and knew Mrs. Mckinley was alone in the house with her baby, so the scum began trying to break in, figuring she was an easy mark.

She wasn't. Sarah McKinley grabbed her trusty 12 gauge, her baby and a bottle, headed for her bedroom and called 911.

"I've got two guns in my hand -- is it okay to shoot him if he comes in this door?" the young mother asked the 911 dispatcher. "I'm here by myself with my infant baby, can I please get a dispatcher out here immediately?"

The 911 dispatcher confirmed with McKinley that the doors to her home were locked as she asked again if it was okay to shoot if the intruder were to come through her door.

"I can't tell you that you can do that but you do what you have to do to protect your baby," the dispatcher told her.


So when Martin kicked in her bedroom door and came after her with the knife she shot and killed him. His partner ran way and turned himself in to the police later.

Since this is Oklahoma and not Lotus Land, the cops are calling it justifiable homicide and no charges will be filed.

"You're allowed to shoot an unauthorized person that is in your home. The law provides you the remedy, and sanctions the use of deadly force," Det. Dan Huff of the Blanchard police said.

"I wouldn't have done it, but it was my son," McKinley told ABC News Oklahoma City affiliate KOCO. "It's not an easy decision to make, but it was either going to be him or my son. And it wasn't going to be my son. There's nothing more dangerous than a woman with a child."

Mrs. McKinley, you are one stand up, heroic woman and I have a feeling that as soon as you're ready, some upstanding example of manhood is going to propose and take you off the market. Oklahoma, OK!

Remember this story the next time some politician in a gated estate with armed bodyguards or 24/7 Secret Service or state trooper protection tries to talk you into disarming yourself and tell them exactly where they can stick it.

Obama Administration Opposes FDR Prayer at WWII Memorial

Ah, how typical. Not only is this a memorial honoring an American victory, but it's a Judeo-Christian prayer. And we can't have that now, can we?

Republican lawmakers and conservative activists are expressing outrage after the Obama administration announced its objection to adding President Franklin Roosevelt's D-Day prayer to the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.

The objection was noted during a congressional hearing on Rep. Bill Johnson's, R-Ohio, bill -- the "World War II Memorial Prayer Act of 2011."

"It is unconscionable that the Obama administration would stand in the way of honoring our nation's distinguished World War II veterans," Johnson said. "President Roosevelt's prayer gave solace, comfort and strength to our nation and our brave warriors as we fought against tyranny and oppression."


Of course, the president has made it quite clear in the past that D-Day is not exactly a big deal where he's concerned.

The bill has bi-partisan support and will almost certainly pass the House. Let the Democrats in the Senate kill it, with an election coming up - or make the president veto it.

I urge you to read the prayer President Roosevelt read to the nation on that decisive day in our history. It's quite obvious why the present occupant of the White House would rather we ignore what it expresses.
