Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
I'm not sure I agree 100% with what the old man did. There was no gun pulled on him. But wtf are the "authorities" going to do to a 92 year old man? He's got 8, maybe 12-15 years if he's physically & mentally fit left of his life.

WTF. Someone is in my house they are fair target, period. I ain't gonna ask, I am going to unload on them. There is not a weapon on my living floor that ain't fully loaded and ready. Or the barn or the truck.

Already had his house broke into twice this year. He had every right to shoot the thug. Shame he did not shoot all 3.

That is why there are 2 handguns loaded on and in the nightstand. 22 revolver for the left hand on top and 9mm for the right in the drawer. Scares the piss out of the Amish when they have an emergency.

Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
on one hand I want to say they all three deserve their heads blown off
but on the other hand what if the person was not there to hurt the guy (he shot before he was sure there was reason to)
what if it was a mentally handy capped person that just was wandering aimlessly
but truth is the person that was shot deserved it if the law permits it under the circumstance

This was not self defence.By the murderer's own testimony, it was a calculated execution.

Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
I'm all for self defense if you're being held at gun point *edit* or being drawn upon... But the old man just sat there and waited for the man to enter and shot him dead. He could of called 911 or whatever local officers were in the vicinity. I don't care if he was broken into 3 times; it's still murder.

Oh never argue articles like this with your redneck friends.

makes sense.
Two wrongs never make a right. There is no element of self defence here. Not sure what the penalty for burglary is over there, but it surely isn't death by firing squad.

Simple facts are that had he not been in the process of burglarizing this old man's house, he'd still be alive. You live by the sword.......

Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
Hmm...funny, I don't SEE where I said that. :dunno Capital offenses are sanctioned by state code sections, not homeowners protecting their property and/or life. There's Capital punishment and there's "guess you won't do THAT again, huh?" Driving drunk isn't a Capital offense, either, but some drunk runs into a tree and dies I'm not going to feel sorry for them, either.

Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
He's was using capital punishment as a broad term. Death being capital punishment. The last resort.

Anyone who is an intruder on another person's house is asking for it...they put themselves in serious danger.

Re: 92 yr. old WW11 vet kills home invader
Here's my problem with all of this.
Let's say you have a cop friend having a few drinks with you one night and someone kicks the door in and comes in. The cop pulls his gun and points it right at the intruders chest.
Would he get into trouble if he just blasted him? Would he need to show that the intruder either had a gun or was coming after him? Or would it be acceptable to just gun him down for kicking in the door and coming in?
I have no problem with people who defend themselves with lethal force. I have a weapon for home defense and would not hesitate to use it if need be. But if someone kicks my door in and I confront them with my loaded weapon, I'm not just going to start blasting away because I can. I will either detain this person for the police to take care of them or I will drive him from my home. And if he advances on my I would fire... but I would never just gun someone down because they are in my house. That's murder
