    Middle-aged mother stabbed machete-wielding burglar with a kitchen knife

    "A machete-wielding burglar who targeted a well-to-do family home was forced to flee empty-handed after a brave middle-aged housewife fought him off.

    Gillian Wilson, 55, was praised by a judge after she rushed at burglar Nigel Greenwood, 29, and plunged a knife into his arm to protect her family.

    A court heard a quiet family evening for Mrs Wilson and her 64-year-old husband Brian turned to terror when a gang of armed and masked intruders burst into their pretty detached bungalow in Apperley Bridge, West Yorkshire, in October.

    Their son Christopher, 26, who was visiting with his wife, was punched in the face by machete-wielding Greenwood and demands were made for cash and jewellery."

    Well done Gillian, if only UK allowed homeowners adequate means to support God Given right of self defense, then we'd be reading a very short article of 3 thugs gunned down by a mom who made it in time for last orders to a local pub.

    Talking of which - is there a power limit on strong light sources used to guard houses in this country?

      Still going to the wail website? Somehow I doubt the truth will ever be found there.

            I fail to see the reason for your attitude?

            Self defense legally is a very subjective field and many people get arrested as our country persecutes victims and Molly cuddles criminals.

                Not at all. Your ignorance is shining through though. Congrats!
