Isadel Gooden, 98, fought off home invaders last month after they broke into her Huger, SC home to rob her.

It was around 2 a.m. when a man knocked on her door twice asking her to give him some water. When she told him no, another man kicked in her back door.

She was pushed down—her head hitting the heater. Nonetheless, she found the strength to hit one of them in the head with a wooden stick. The man was hit so hard, the stick broke in half.

Isadel said God helped her fight back and saved her that night.

    I just had a mental orgasm. Oh, the joy. Another predator falls victim to his prey. Too bad she didn't have a 12 guage shotgun loaded with buckshot with which to spray the devil.
