Sheriff Scott Walton said a woman was house sitting at a home just west of Inola when two men tried to break in.
As she was calling 911, one of the men got inside the home and tried to take away her gun. She fought back, hitting him in the face, to retain the weapon.
A neighbor heard the commotion and went to help the woman
The house sitter handed the neighbor her gun and he fired a warning shot, but the intruder had already jumped out of a window. |

Another self defense with a gun, but it won't count because neither of the criminals was killed. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
