A Woodbridge woman was arrested after she shot a handgun into the air to scare off a group of boys who were attacking her daughter.

Lakisha Gaither, 35, said she fired a single round into the sky from her legally owned gun Saturday night after a boy punched her daughter in the face during a dispute near their home "I just wanted this group of guys to disperse,” Ms. Gaither said. “I didn’t know what they were going to do. I wanted him to stop hitting my child.

The shooting occurred at 9:20 p.m. in the 13600 block of Cridercrest Place. After confronting a teenage girl and her mother in the neighborhood over a prior disagreement, Ms. Gaither and her 15-year-old daughter, Brianna Stewart, began walking home. A group of about 10 boys approached them in the parking lot of their apartment complex. One boy began to swear and insult Ms. Gaither and her daughter, who stood up to the boy.

“The two were face to face,” Ms. Gaither said. “He grabs her shirt, she goes to push him off her.”

  1. I am not a lawyer, but I heard there's a law which makes someone criminally responsible for telling someone to commit a crime.

    When Joe Biden advised his wife (and the nation) to fire a shotgun in the air...

    Either he goes to prison, too, OR this mom's charges are dropped right fucking now.

    At least, that's how it would be, if we were not in the animal farm, where all animals are equal, but some are more equal than the others.

  2. Why not just walk up and do some head pops. Just saying. Bullet to bone & flesh is the only way to go.
