Comment from a Gunsafe member:
>Notice that this AP article showed no compassion for the child or the mother
who were the victims.   There was no mention of grief counseling or sympathy.
 I saw nothing on the daily news.  They didn't mention the mothers pain or if
the child cried!  As a matter of fact they specifically stated the girl would
not be charged in the incident, as if she should be.

>This is the a good example of how  deeply rooted the media ignorance and bias
really is.   I guess since it was a positive use of a gun saving a life it
doesn't deserve   national TV or newspaper coverage.

>For saving her Mom's life, I think the girl is a hero.

12-Year-Old Girl Won't Be Charged

CLARKSDALE, Miss. (AP) - A 12-year-old girl who shot and killed her mother's attacker 
will not be charged, police said
Tuesday.

The girl was asleep in her room when Anthony Fox chased her mother into their 
apartment, forcing his way through the door,
Detective Danny Hill said.

``She heard the commotion and she knew from past experience what was going on,'' Hill 
said.

The girl saw Fox choking her mother, grabbed her mother's pistol and fired a single 
shot into his chest, Hill said.

The county coroner said Fox, 25, died of a single gunshot wound to the chest Saturday 
at an area hospital.

Fox had been arrested for domestic violence against the girl's mother, his on-and-off 
girlfriend, at least twice, Hill said.

A youth court judge ruled the shooting self-defense, Hill said. The girl's name was 
withheld because of her age.
