25 minutes for police to arrive after hanging up 5 times on the boy?

Wow.

Time to teach Grandma how to shoot a 22...

Smart woman, that's for sure. Telling the boy to hide is the right thing to do. God forbid she didn't survive the encounter he may have a had a chance to survive. Also keeps him out of harms way.

Lol .... I wonder if CNN aired this story. Probably not, it has some serious pro-gun features in it. Not really the kind of story most of the media would allow on their networks.

there should have been a big story on the 911 mishap...WTH!!!
