Definately Cruel & Unusual Punishment

Naked man, 91, holds drunken intruder at gunpoint


LAKE WORTH, Fla. (AP) -- Authorities said a naked 91-year-old man was able to hold a drunken intruder at gunpoint until deputies arrived. Robert E. Thompson jumped out of bed early Saturday when his dog starting growling and attacking the intruder. He said he got his revolver and went out back to let the guy know how he felt about home invaders.

I couldn't get this site to come up, but for the 91 year old man, I say BRAVO FOR HIM to show the
courage to protect his place and to make him wait till the police got there.

Interesting, thanks for sharing
