Just hours after news reports surfaced yesterday that the Obama administration would have an announcement about “smart guns,” an 80-year-old Sultan-area woman used a plain old firearm with the “smarts” behind the trigger to fatally shoot a home invader last night who stabbed her husband.
Published reports say the unidentified 25-year-old attacker may have been trying to burglarize the home. He evidently made what some self-defense experts call “a fatal error in the victim selection process.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
