I am a neolibertarian minded individual who feels that freedom and individual rights take precedence over the wants of government. I believe government exists to serve the people and not to protect us from ourselves. I am an advocate for private firearms ownership, smaller government, reduced taxes and freedom to live your life however you choose, providing you do not directly hurt others.

17yr Old Captive Kills Intruder

CEDAR CITY - Police in southern Utah are calling a 17-year-old boy a hero after he fatally stabbed an armed intruder who broke into his family's home early Wednesday.
...
While the stepfather fought with the intruder, the boy was able to free himself. He then pulled a 6-inch hunting knife from beneath his bed, walked into his parents' bedroom and stabbed the intruder five times in the back, Gower said.

Good for him! In today's society, many people would think it strange for a person to keep a knife, firearm or other weapon under or near their bed. Here's an example of how such things can come in handy. Who knows what this armed intruder would have done to this family once he finished strapping them all down with duct tape. Disgruntled ex-employee stories often end badly once they decide to arm themselves and get revenge, so this could have turned out to be quite a tragedy.

I am especially pleased that the police have acknowledged and praised the young defender's efforts:

Iron County Sheriff Mark Gower described the boy as a level-headed kid "who, in my opinion, saved his family's lives."
