[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 920162, member: 17969"] OVER, lets look at the differences in the story from both sources.. Lets look at wks' account through his posting 1) But Alyssa didn’t let the fear, nor the danger faze her. While she says her heart was pounding, her mind was poised and decisive– the kind of confidence and poise that comes with knowing you have the means to defend yourself. When three armed burglars burst through the door from the outside, one of them brandishing a rifle, Alyssa immediately ran to her parent’s room to get her mother’s gun. Loaded and ready, Alyssa turned to confront the three armed men, who spooked and ran away. Now, lets look at the story that you posted about the same event. 1) She said she slid to the floor from the couch when she saw the trio, but quickly decided that hiding wouldn't do her any good because the masked intruders had seen her. "They had a rifle so I was thinking, 'What should I do? 'What if they shoot me?'" Gutierrez said. That's when she made a beeline for her mother's room. "I ran back into my mom's room and grabbed her little pink rifle, and there was two bullets in there," she said. With the loaded rifle, Gutierrez said she checked the bathroom and then the living room ready to defend herself. She said she ran to her mother's closet and called 911. But while Gutierrez protected her home, she had no idea the suspects had jumped the fence and that an off-duty APD officer driving passed her home had spotted them. Police arrested the three teens and their alleged getaway driver, Abraham Bustillos, minutes after the break-in. Gutierrez said she feels lucky because just a few days ago she had learned how to shoot a rifle. "I felt proud of myself," Gutierrez said. CLEARLY there are fundamental differences in the accounting of the stories. From WK's account, she faced down the intruders with her moms loaded rifle and they left, IN over's account, she hid, layed on the floor, ran to her mothers room, picked up "her" little pink rifle and walked back out into the living room only to realize the men jumped the fence and ran never being confronted by the little girl. She hid in a closet and called police. As I said, the GUN FREAKS exaggerate the story to promote guns. What a joke. Peace Clearly [/QUOTE]
