Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Not sure that I'd have the presence of mind to fight if he caught me nekkid in the shower.... There aren't any common ".35 caliber" handguns, are there? Maybe .357s? http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/07/01/ex-cnn-lynne-russell-husband-kill-robber-in-wild-motel-shootout/?intcmp=latestnews LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Former CNN News anchor stays in a Motel 6? Must have come on hard financial times. She sure has every right to be proud of her husband. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitar_slinger Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'm sure her remedy for the situation will be to enact stronger gun control measures (on everybody else). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Bob #61228 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I wouldn't stay at a Motel 6 without a gun either. Probably something with a 4 in the caliber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitar_slinger Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 .357 SIG? Most likely a typo and they meant .45 calibre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elk Creek LeMieux Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 One of Utah's former colleagues... would ya expect less? I was thinking that, and doing the math. He turned 18 in '68... And he's a former Special Forces officer. Probably wasn't the first time he pulled the trigger at a moving target. Bad guy picked the wrooooong room to force his way into. Anyone else notice the article saying: where they had placed their legal, .35-caliber handguns Insinuating both her and her husband were armed.

Sedalia Dave Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Had the couple been in a motel in some parts of the country; the headlines would have read... "Former CNN News Anchor and Her Husband Murdered in Motel Robbery Gone Wrong." Then CNN would be pounding the news desk for more gun control. When will they learn that criminals DO NOT follow the rules. That's why they are called criminals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bama Red Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Celebrating their first wedding anniversary and staying in a Motel 6??? Hmmm....... Former CNN News anchor stays in a Motel 6? Must have come on hard financial times. I think Birdie hit the nail on the head. Regardless, quick thinking on both their parts and good shooting on his part. He takes three slugs and kills the perp? Good on him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Hope he's getting along OK! He was lucky to be able to get to his gun. Makes you think Tuco had the right idea about taking a bath with his sixgun on. Or maybe John Wayne in the shower scene, with a shotgun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
