The video speaks for itself. Watch in full-screen mode for best results.
Not being in color, the security camera footage doesn't show the brown streaks being left behind by the fleeing thugs. One died of his injuries, and the cops are looking for the other two. I did enjoy the one running straight through a glass door in his hurry to get away . . .

I find her last shots out the door to be concerning.
That, and her lack of situational awareness for the thug behind her.
Nonetheless, a positive outcome.
I find her spirit to be applauded. Classic example of aggressive counter attack. Isn't this how they instruct Marines to respond to an ambush? (not in detail, but in concept?)
Highly reckless final shot out the door. I'm not sure that she wouldn't be in trouble in some states as the video doesn't show her in mortal danger and she may have had an escape route out the back.
Don't get me wrong; if I were on her jury, it would be Not guilty of any charge. Multiple armed assailants brings on a whole different dimension.
One of them died? Good.
I can see why it's concerning if she shot out the door, but if they were shooting back at her I doubt she'll face charges.
A couple of things come to mind.
1. Advanced warning. You can buy electronic devices that alert you to movement in your yard or property. This buys you time.
2. Your doors need to be hardened enough so that a determined attacker can't just batter down the door in seconds. They might not stop someone using a battering ram but again it can buy you time. Time to prepare, wake up, think and clear your head so you can assess the situation and take action.
3. Capacity. With assaults by groups becoming more of a threat a revolver in the nightstand just doesn't cut it anymore in my view. A better choice would be a high capacity pistol with reloads ready to carry. A pouch you can swing over your neck or something. Her gun went dry alarmingly quickly and I'd wager there wasn't another loaded mag in the house. Had they decided to stand and fight she would've been in trouble. If you're at home there's no reason you couldn't use 30 round sticks in your glock or whatever if they're available.
This also is where the damned NFA is screwing over honest citizens. Pistols suck even in tight quarters like a house. Legal length rifles and shotguns are too long and the muzzle blast is literally deafening indoors. A pistol caliber stocked weapon like an MP-5 or a short AR or AK would be much more practical especially when suppressed.
Fukt around and found out. Too bad she was not a better shot. Anyone surprised dey be africans?
Man of the house appeared to be several kinds of useless. "Hey, what's all that noise?"
Actually, Gwinnett County is on the outskirts of the city itself.
It always amazes me how blatantly invasive certain people are. It's like they have no conscience of any kind. Or fear of consequences.
