So you consider someone leaving the house after breaking in a capital offense?

I just want to get the gist of when people want to shoot other people. I've had some pretty expensive stuff stolen from me. Never felt like killing anyone over it. It's just stuff.

Not sure he "deserved it", but he got what he had coming. Assuming he wasn't running away, I'd have shot him dead too.

you break in my house and you getting capped too. salute to the homeowner.

Were you in your home and did you know you were being burglarized at the time?

Respect of personal space and property is a basic tenet of a civilized society. The animals that don't understand and respect this deserve what they get.

Nope.

Again, it's just stuff. People are another matter.

that is how SCOTUS saw it...trespass plus SUBJECTIVE fear

no objective proof of threat is required.

are you saying this family is honorable and will only retaliate if i shoot him in the back?

In your case it would be in the mantle. Or possibly a siphon.


I presented as it was because retaliation is often circumstance subjective with criminals.

So nothing like OP's situation.

I don't think people here are advocating killing because of the actual stealing but the fact that someone invaded the place they call home. I'm not going to shoot someone for what they stole, I'm going to shoot someone for breaking in to my house.

Why do you automatically assume his relatives are already in the pen?

I personally wouldn't if he was fleeing, but I'm also not a 65 year old lady who's had her house burglarized multiple times.

Nice goalpost move. Try actually watching the report before spouting out your ass.
