Many people scoff over 'plastic' firearms. Little do they realize how devastating the correct application of plastic can be

A woman surprised by a man in the front room of her home near Council Bluffs grabbed a plastic toy bat and hit him repeatedly until he ran out the front door.

The Pottawattamie County sheriff’s office says the 26-year-old woman was taking a bath Wednesday night with her 3-year-old child when she noticed a cat who normally stays outside had entered the bathroom. Thinking this odd, she dressed and walked into the front room, where she saw a man standing over her 4-year-old son, who was sleeping in a recliner.

She then grabbed the bat and hit him multiple times until he ran away.

As gunnies, we're always discussing how much gun is 'enough'. I always stress that anything is better than nothing. Although I'd probably go with something not made by Nerf, in this instance, it was enough.

This lady had the will to fight, which is more important than any hardware.
