To Live and Die in Oklahoma

Dispatcher: “OK. County 13 is advising that you can defend your property if you need to.”
Jackson: “I don’t want to have to kill this man, but I’ll kill him graveyard dead ma’am.”
Dispatcher: “I understand.”
-An 911 operator explaining to 57-year-old Donna Jackson, of Cushing, Oklahoma, that she was within her rights to kill an intruder in her home. Which she then promptly did. “Police said they will not charge Jackson with a crime. Prosecutors said she was justified under Oklahoma’s ‘stand-your-ground’ law.” The main downside, it seems to me, is that, now that the intruder is dead, she’ll never know why he was breaking in. I guess I just hate unanswered questions.
