Listen pig, I have never stolen anything in my life and I never will. You are making yourself look like a giant arse when you say stuff like that. I just realize what a waste attitudes like yours are where you shoot first, ask questions later. There's no way that you need to kill in these situations. Shooting them in the leg or arm or subduing them without a gun are far better actions.

That's earned on a case-by-case basis.

I'm born and raised in Sarasota, Florida brah. No backwoods redneck here. Went to Booker Elementary, Middle and HS. Something like 90% black students at the time, I had to be incogNegro.

I doubt too many people are good enough shots or can keep their composure enough to make sure they only shoot someone in the arm or leg in a home invasion. You would also be a fool to try to subdue a home invader without a gun. What happens when you try to get them in a chokehold and they pull out their weapon? I certainly wouldn't give someone breaking into my home the benefit of the doubt that they weren't armed.

But seriously, dude is nuts... He should be locked up. I have no problem with anyone shooting an intruder, even if it turns out that they were unarmed. You shouldn't expect someone to wait for the burglar to produce a weapon and fire the first shot.
After they're no longer a threat, it's an execution.

well they got what they deserved for breaking in. I will never feel bad when a home owner kills someone breaking in. However this guy is fricking dumb, if you have no witnesses and 2 dead bodies you should have a better story.

He certainly is. I didn't make the rules, I just follow them.

I'm torn on this.
First, the accused is seemingly a whack job.
Facts, as we know them:
Kids had robbed multiple houses
One kid had robbed this mans house multiple times
There were Minutes between first killing and second killing, per the article.
I wholeheartedly disagree that there is ANY premeditation since he is the victim of a crime and he had no idea when that would happen. I have a plan of action if my house is being broken into. I would argue that it cannot be premeditation.
Things don't add up.
He goes to the basement and hides, suspecting a break in in progress. First guy goes down and takes a round to the chest and then another. A seemingly obvious action after this would have the second perp fleeing, but she did not. To me, that is not only odd, but shows the threat isn't over at all.
She then goes down and is then met with resistance.
I'm good with this if it really went down this way. Pressing an attack in the robbery by going into the basement where she had to have heard multiple gunshots.... A novice criminal sure as he'll wouldn't do that. That piece bothers me.
I don't care for the home owners mindset, wording, or after actions but as a victim of multiple break ins, if this guy has a crystal clear record, a lawyer could argue that anything he says after this action can be tainted by a form of PTSD. A lawful person who has never killed is going to be fricked in the head.
I don't know the laws in MN. I don't know if he broke the law by waiting to call the police. I don't think putting a guy on a tarp is against the law, like it said, he could be severely traumatized and not thinking clearly.
I have little sympathy as breaking in is a crime that is easily avoided.

Why does eveyone get so upset when a single person dies. We have billions of them, and we make more everyday.
Sometimes people die, it is just the way the world works. It isn't that big of a deal.
