Rare MSM pro-gun report
A Sioux Falls man was shot at after attempting to break into a camper.
18-year-old Jeremy H. Miller was arrested and charged with two counts of burglary, criminal entry into a motor vehicle, and possession of alcohol by a minor. It all happened early sunday morning at Baltic River Park, which is located about 20 miles north of Sioux Falls.
The Minnehaha County Sheriff's Office says that when Miller tried breaking into a camper, the person inside shot at him through a window in the door.
I'm not sure if this is in favor of carrying concealed weapons or not. Attempted murder of an 18 yr. old seems a bit extreme... even if he was on their property. Call 911. Shout "I have a gun." Maybe not try to shoot the kid. Vigilante justice scares me.
[Sibby's respobse: We were not there, so we can not judge the level of the threat. But certainly just a show of force will scare off most criminals. And that would be preferable to shooting them.]
