One down.Pierce County Deputies said just before 4:30 this afternoon, the man who lives at a home in the 14300 block of 134th Avenue East was sleeping when people tried to break in. The owner grabbed his gun and fired, hitting one of the intruders. The group then fled.

You mean the two different spellings of the location in the same article?blackeagle603 wrote:Puyallup?
Who's proofing these articles before going to press/publishing? Apparently NO ONE.PULLAYUP, Wash. -- A retired Puyallup police officer shot and killed a man who was attempting to break into his home Wednesday afternoon.

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.
I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

Sorry, I didn't read the article -- just reacted to the street number (used to live in the area and buddy was killed by Craiglists "buyer" home invasion there a couple years ago).

The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .

Re: Another Good Shoot in WA
Spelling Puyallup isn't usually the problem. Pronouncing it is. 
Prices inside the Western WA State Fair at Puyallup being what they are, a man from Eastern Washington stops at a burger joint along the road before going on into the fair.
As he pays for his meal he asks the local kid at register, "So how do you pronounce the name of this place?"
Kid looks at him sort of puzzled and says slowly "Burrrr-gerrrrr King."
