Three Wise Guys Vs. The 11-Year Old Girl

In Christmas time, The Three Wise Men come bearing gifts to Hispanic kids far and wide.  I remember going to my back-yard every January 5th, and collecting grass clippings for the camels to have during their visit.

But what to do if instead of Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, Three thugs show up at your door?  Instead of grass clippings, you reach for your rifle, of course.

Good on her, but a 10/22 with a 25rd mag would have been a better choice, you can get them with a Pink stock as well!
 

A (wo)mans home is her (adobe) castle.

After seeing their house, the 'castle' doctine should prevail.

Good for her!
 
I think the rifle was a.17 HMR, nasty at short ranges.

*snort*  What the thugs thought was that the since the rifle was pink, she was really holding a toy instead of a deadly weapon.  Kudos to her for using it wisely and in the manner intended.
Let us hope the perp defense counsel is not a fool to use the 'it is a toy and she didn't use it in the manner intended' defense.  I think they would get laughed out of the courtroom.
What a good young lady with that presence of mind to know what to do, what to do it with, and when. 
 

Bad pun intended:  "Cricket is chirping"

 
Youngster - ponder this possibility...  male pattern baldness is caused by mothers and wives and girlfriends smacking the men in their lives on the back of the head.

How's your hair holding up, He Who Goads She Who Brought Him Forth?
 
Quite well, since it was intended as a compliment to the weapon she used:  a Crickett.
Aren't crickets usually the ones who have the last word when there is a thunderous silence?

*running off*
 
Well, getting off a shot is good, but as I believe any arty person will tell you, you really need to just splatter them to get yer point across. Yes, a 10-22 would have been a good step in that direction.
