Taken into custody?

[cam76034]

This guy deserves a medal! Instead, he's taken into custody and may face charges. The way I see it, he made sure that at least two of them won't be doing it again.

I say give him a medal too, although I don't condone what he did for obvious legal reasons. But I may have done the same thing

[sammm]

I saw this story on the news this morning. They said no charges were being filed against the homeowner (as it should be!).

Well... the Castle Doctrine should take effect the start of September and should simplify these sorts of things greatly.

I have an acquaintance who did hard time because he chased and killed two guys who tried to break into his home. As one police officer told me, "If ya kill em, drag em back into your house."

Even the Castle won't let you go down the street to defend your home.

I look at it this way, if your ballsy enough to come into my home with a gun and try to rob or kill me and I shoot you and don't know if you are injured seriously or not but you are still getting away to either sue me at a later date or come back more pissed and try to kill me again.....I'm chasing you down the street too till one is in your skull.

I agree that the guy ought to get a medal. It's just a shame he only managed to kill one of them.

+1!

Cliff Notes?

Cliff Notes?

[/Opinion Mode ON]

This is just the Political Scientist in me coming out, but you should never ask for the Cliff Notes versions of proposed legislation. You never know what those bastards will try to sneak past you.

Just take a couple of minutes to try to wade your way through the legal-ese...

Kind of the same thing but a different State.

Two illegal aliens, Raphael Resindez 23 and Enrico Garza 26, probably believed they would easily overpower a home alone 11 year old, Patricia Harrington, after her father had left their two story home. It seems the two crooks were not aware of two things.

First, they were in Montana. And second, Patricia had been a clay pigeon shooting champion since she was nine.

Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room and grabbed his 12 gauge shotgun.

Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor, only to be the first to catch a near point blank blast of buck shot from the 11 year old's knee crouch aim. He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals.

When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive.

It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45 caliber handgun he taken from another home invasion robbery, where the victim, 50 year old David Burien, was not so lucky as he died from stab wounds to the chest.

Sweet!!!......Dumb Bastards!!!
Both stories had good results.

Cliff Notes?

Comes from the idea that a man's home is his castle and he has the right to defend it. Several states have passed legislation to that end recently, and that just shows you how screwed up we've gotten. I don't need a law to tell me that, but there are those who would argue. The castle law is supposed to clear up any questions.

3bean is right in suggesting you read the whole thing because they could write a piece that says the most recently convicted child molestor will become the king of Texas and everyone has to spend two weeks a year guarding his castle.

Unfortunately that one isn't true though

[channelmaniac]

The guy still has to get past the grand jury...

They may file charges since he was shooting as they left his house. You never know how those things go when that part is figured into the equation.

[Billy Blaze]

The way I see it is the constitution says we can have guns anywhere, the only reason we dont is because we have LET the government take away something that was never given by them or any man, but by God and enforced by the constitution. So really we should focus on getting our true rights back then we won't have to be scared of our government for protecting ourselves anywhere JMHO

If we were a true "Constitutional Republic", this guy would be getting an award or a job in law enforcement....lol

When did God say "you may have guns anywhere"? I'm no biblical scholar, but I don't recall guns mentioned anywhere in the Bible.

In Genesis, it's right after the baseball reference... "In the Big Inning..."
