Click Here For Intruder Kills Woman
LP News Online: May 2001: Affiliate News: Michigan: "Tragic killing shows the danger of anti-gun laws
A tragic incident where an intruder killed a woman while she was desperately dialing 911 shows how gun control laws kill people, said the state Libertarian Party.
'Begging a 911 operator to have the police hurry is hardly the best use of the few seconds you have when an armed and dangerous person is trying to break into your home,' said LP State Chair Stacy van Oast.
On March 26, a former boyfriend killed Detroit resident Stephanie Rice and her brother. Rice was on the phone to police when she was killed.
'Instead of a weapon, Ms. Rice used the gun-controller defense -- call 911,' said van Oast. 'The simple fact is that the police just cannot be everywhere in order to effectively deal with a crime in progress. You need to be able to do that yourself.'
And if politicians overturn a new 'shall-issue' gun law, they 'will be writing the epitaph for a lot more folks [like Rice],' said van Oast. "
