Even if you want to resort to Old Testament laws, stealing a pillowcase of hundred dollar bills (strange, that) does not warrant two-in-the-back. Ridic.

But the cops were on the scene and the shooter was repeatedly warned not to go outside. If there were no cops and dude needed his cock-off of the year, I'd be willing to meet your sarcasm halfway. Unless you're advocating that we all become vigilantes and do away with the police. 'd Like to hear the details of that plan. Funny, Mark.

More and more, people want to just trivalize the criminal action, as in this case, and focus on the horiffic act that the neighbor commited. I find what the neighbor did to be reprehensible, as he clearly seemed intent on doing more than making only a citizens arrest. Maybe we should make it a law and require "crazy old people with guns" to put signs in their lawns so that hard working criminals don't become victims of their own actions.

But then, I'm not from Texas (been there, though). Anyway, I think he hadn't fired his gun in a while, and really really really wanted an excuse. Also, he got to play the hero by "saving" his neighbor's property. Gun culture. I just don't get it. And I live in Brooklyn, where we're just as strapped as Texans.

His claim is that the two individuals came at him once he went outside. It will be interesting to see if he gets more than just a slap on the wrist. He is actually claiming self-defense.
