Intruder Breaks Into 80-Year-Old’s Rental House, Pays For it Big Time

An 80-year-old man from Tuolumne, California heard a noise coming from his rental property located next to his house on Tuesday evening, a building that was supposed to be unoccupied, so he and his wife decided to check things out to see what was going on.

However, they didn’t just mosey on over to see what was happening without bringing a little something for the sake of protection, and boy was that ever a good decision.

The couple ended up confronting an intruder who was inside the rental property, and out of fear for their safety, the man opened fire, shooting the unwanted guest.

The Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office said 29-year-old Bryce Lawrence — a transient — was shot once in the upper torso, the Bee reported. Lawrence is recovering at a hospital, KTXL-TV reported.

Lawrence was in the home with 24-year-old Bryanna Ireland of Sonora, the Bee reported, adding that she was booked into jail on suspicion of burglary.

Investigators told KTXL that Lawrence is known to be homeless and has been arrested a number of times for drugs, trespassing and attempted theft.

There’s a lesson here for both sides to learn in this particular situation. For the criminal, perhaps it’s time to apply that time and energy to getting a real job, a sustainable career that will provide for your basic needs, a feat which must come second to getting help for the drug problem.

With a steady job, the risk of being shot drops dramatically.

Secondly, this is a prime example of why gun ownership is so important and is a fundamental, God-given right. Without the Second Amendment, who knows how this encounter would’ve went down. Things might have taken a really nasty turn for the innocent, law abiding citizens.

What liberals don’t seem to understand is that when people are corrupt, twisted, and messed up, you can’t get rid of their evil ways simply by banning their access to tools. They’ll just find new tools to use against innocent people. Gun control solves absolutely nothing.

Thus, it’s critical to not infringe on the right to bear arms so that good people have the means at their disposal to defend life and property from individuals who seek to take those things away from them.

You can tell a lot about a White House by the extracurricular nonsense that hits the press surrounding it.

For instance, after one of President Joe Biden’s dogs began biting random people on the grounds, we started hearing murmurs of just how terse and stressful the place had become, with dog behavior experts suggesting that the mood at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue might have a lot to do with the aggression.

This week, the Biden administration beget more bad behavior, but this time it wasn’t from one of the First Pets.

Two U.S. Secret Service agents in South Korea were sent stateside ahead of President Biden’s arrival following their involvement in an off-duty alcohol-related incident.

The two agents, whose identities have not been made public, are on their way back to Washington, D.C. where they will face disciplinary action, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News.

Both agents apparently became intoxicated while not on duty. One of the agents then got into an altercation with a cab driver.

There could be more trouble coming, as well.

In South Korea, officials send mediators to the scene of low-level disputes and then determine if criminal charges would be filed.

One of the agents was interviewed by authorities and no charges have been filed.

The government released one of its usual, dry, boilerplate-esque missives.

“The Secret Service is aware of an off-duty incident involving two employees which may constitute potential policy violations,” USSS chief spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told Fox News. “We have very strict protocols and policies for all employees and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards.”

There is a history of poor behavior from the Secret Service during Democratic administrations, with a notable incident having occurred in 2012, involving Barack Obama’s agents and a Colombian prostitute.
