If you haven't seen this already, holy cow. I don't know if this 18-year old girl was crazy, a hero or a protective mama but DAMN!!!

Here's my favorite part of the whole story:
McKinley told KFOR-TV the slain intruder had also showed up at her door on Dec. 29, the day of her husband's funeral. This actually blew my mind . . . 18-years old, mother to an infant and already a widow -- her husband was 58 and passed away from cancer complications. Did I read that right? 58???
When he came again on New Year's Eve, she said she grabbed her son and "walked over and got the 12-gauge, went in the bedroom and got the pistol and put the bottle in his mouth and then I called 911," she told KOCO. This girl was cool as a cucumber. Blocks the door with the couch, gives the baby a bottle and asks the dispatcher if it's "OK" to shoot him if he comes in the door. Um hell yeah. It's more than OK.
The 911 operator asked McKinley to confirm that her doors were locked. The young mother said yes, and asked if it was all right for her to shoot the man if he were to enter her house, KOCO reported.
McKinley said she asked the dispatcher, "I've got two guns in my hand -- is it OK to shoot him if he comes in this door? I'm here by myself with my infant baby, can I please get a dispatcher out here immediately?" She's got a gun in both hands, shoots and kills one and scares the crap out of the other. You Go Girl.
