Gary Wroblewski is confined to a wheelchair and therefore an easy target for criminals. His physical limitations and lack of mobility are the type of weakness that cowards look for in an easy mark.

But, Mr. Wroblewski is anything but a helpless victim.

Instead, he took the time to arm himself and learn how to properly use his gun. That decision just might have saved his life on December 15th when home invaders decided to attack him inside his home.

From the story at Ocala.com:

The three men — Gonzales, Kenney and the teen — went to Wroblewski's Silver Springs Shores home to commit a home invasion/robbery.

The teen remained in the vehicle while Gonzalez and Kenney went to the home. Gonzalez knocked on the front door and asked Wroblewski for assistance with his car.

When the homeowner refused to come out, Kenney, hiding in the shrubs, barreled through the door and knocked Wroblewski, who uses a wheelchair, down.

As he was going down, Wroblewski fired shots at Kenney. One of the bullets fatally wounded the 24-year-old.

Rush Limbaugh has won a knock down drag out contest over such anti-hunters as Ingrid Newkirk and Cass Sunstein to become the number one villain of hunters and anglers in 2009.

No, El Rushbo may not be twirling a handlebar moustache anytime soon, but he did manage to come out on top in Field and Stream's 2009 "Hunting and Fishing Heroes and Villains Face Off." This very amusing, tongue in cheek website feature matched up some of America's leading defenders and opponents of hunting into a single elimination tournament to see who are both the top hero and the top villain for outdoor sports this year.

In the shocking final round, Rush knocked off PETA founder Ingrid "a rat is a pig is a dog is a boy" Newkirk who had advanced to the final by overwhelming the new "Regulatory Czar" Cass Sunstein.

How did this happen?

Well, the author did a great job explaining his position in this follow up piece at Field and Stream.
