OJR Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 I didn't dare to post this in the lounge, but I think we should all see this and read it! OJR NRA files - Butte, Montana November 5, 2006 Home invasion gone wrong for criminals. Two illegal aliens, Ralphel Resindez 23 and Enrico Garza 26, probably believed they would easily overpower a home alone 11 year old Patricia Harrington after her father had left their two story home. It seems the two crooks never learned two things, they were in Montana and Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was nine. Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room and grabbed his 12 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun. Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only to be the first to catch a near point blank blast of buck shot from the 11 year olds knee crouch aim. He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals. When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive. It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45 caliber handgun he took from another home invasion robbery. The victim, 50 year old David Burien, was not so lucky as he died from stab wounds to the chest. Had this happened in CA, the ACLU would be out in force suing the 11 year old girl. (Not to mention the LaRaza groups claiming she was discriminating.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Shame the original owner of the 45 died. The two criminals, well the little girl did what she had to, justice I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggs Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 I have to ask Orlan, is there a link to an article or anything you can show to substantiate this story. At face value, I have a hard time believing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 I can't find anything other than repeats of this article. There's nothing in the NRA Armed Citizen archives for Patricia Harrington or Butte, Montana. My guess is that it's another urban legend. Too bad. It's a great story with a happy ending. Now, if you want me to provide a verified story of an illegal alien breaking into a home and murdering a young girl, I'm sure I can find several examples.

muggs Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 I had a feeling. Too many giveaways that you can tell were put into the story to play on the stereotypical NRA member's fears. Not just two crooks, but two crooks who just happen to also be illegal aliens (ya know, because it's not that they don't have greencards, but they're all evil criminals too:)), They're preying on a little white girl who's home alone, using a stolen gun, off of a guy they murdered to get it etc... Things like this don't every happen, except in the rarest of occasions. You gotta love propaganda. No problem Orlan, it made for a good read anyway.
