An elderly Reno homeowner shot and wounded two of three burglars in an incident where he held one injured suspect captive during an eight-hour stand-off. The homeowner, who did not have a phone, held a burglar at gunpoint until he was able to get a neighbor to summon authorities.

You gotta look at the pictures of the thugs in the article. They look like they came from central casting. "Hey Vinnie, send me down a doper and loser...."

8. I think I'll make a laminated card with these guys and some other

home invasion/robbery/rape suspects. That way, when some idiot asks her why she carries, she can hand the sheet over for about 30 seconds and then ask the idiot if they'd rather fight for her life with her fists or with a gun. And then have my wife inform her that there are people out there who think she should never, ever use a gun-not even to protect her family.

5. "Over sixty" sentencing enhancement? Sounds like a senior discount...

for da thugs, but calculated going the other way. Hmm, wonder what else Nevada's got in the way of enhancements?
