He's 80 years old, using a .22, I am sure he might have been aiming at her leg.

Shot her twice in the back? Yeah, that's murder and not self defense. She was running away. The threat was over.

Which is why I don't exactly fault him for shooting her. Apparently this was their 2nd time robbing him. My issue is him giving her two shots in the back versus 1 in the leg or a less fatal area
They had been robbing other houses in the neighborhood for a long time, according to statements in the video. I'm surprised at the number of posters in this thread who think the old man was supposed to be calm and collected enough to handle the situation any differently than he did.
If I came into my house and there were two people ransacking it, I would pull my gun and start firing. Now, I'm not saying I would necessarily hit anybody because the heat of the moment tends to affect a lot of us, but bullets would be flying in their general direction at least.
The man is 80 years old, he and his neighbors have been robbed before and the perps threw him down. I think that's enough to get just about anybody angry enough to keep shooting even if the creeps were running away. I don't understand putting so much responsibility on the homeowner in this situation.

My thoughts. Even if he shots her, why shot to kill a pregnant woman who's no longer a threat?

You know how she could've avoided getting shot? By not breaking into someone else's house and robbing him. She got what she deserved. It's too bad the guy didn't get shot too.

I put the responsibility of my fellow free citizens to not shoot people that are fleeing because of the heat of the moment. He was angry and chose to kill her as she ran and felt no remorse.

If someone is running away, and you shoot them, it's murder. That's the way it is.

I tip my hat to you gentlesir, so fine to see that chivalry is still alive among some. 'tis a rare thing to see among the plebes.

Nah. It's preventing future threats. Which was obviously a high possibility seeing as how this wasn't the first time these pieces of shite had robbed that area.

Right, the robbers had all of this planned, the old Man isn't privy to any of the script, he is in panic mode, and scared, no idea what is going to happen next.

We as citizens don't get that right. Our right is to defend ourselves. Not future people because they MIGHT do it again.

That's the job of the fricking criminal justice system. We have laws for this sort of thing, since this is a functioning society.
It's also great to see that for a few in this thread, having your shite taken justifies killing another human being.

Look, the dumb bitch decided rob him, not saying he should have shot her twice in the back, but:
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
And if she was Muslim, he should have shot 3 more times and then piss on her derka derka corpse.

So that gives him an excuse to execute her?
You can't kill someone over someone stealing your belongings. You can only kill someone if you fear your life is in danger.
