Do I look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I’m a dog chasing cars. I wouldn’t know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just do things.
It's neither. Can't be self defense but I don't see it as murder. The man is protecting the neighborhood.
Seriously, we need people to be more apt to stick up for their own neighborhoods. Now in places where crime is scarce, people will say he is wrong, but in certain places IT IS NEEDED.

reminds me of the Tony Martin case...he was senteced to several years in prison for defending his property against burglers who had robbed him 4 times in 6 months
Did you guys hear the 911 call? The operator repeatedly told him NOT to go outside.

Maybe I am, I would shoot a criminal in my house if he so much as picked up a fork. Honestly I would shoot him just from breaking in. Now I wouldnt run out and shoot someone robbing another house, but I would get my gun and protect my family in case they turn their attention to me. I would have no sympathy for the criminals if I was this man's neighbor.
Indeed. I saw an interview with the guy this morning and he was all feeling bad and shit. The 911 operator clearly told him NOT to go outside. Dude said "you hear this?", and he racked home a shell in his shotgun, went outside and took the law into his own hands.
"I was fearing for my own life." The man had a 12 guage SHOTGUN and the robbers were walking away with their arms full of shit.
He shot them in the back. The BACK.

Justifiable homocide. In TX and LA its perfectly legal to kill tresspassers. In MO its legal to kill a burglar but only if they're in your house. My father-in-law is from St. Louis; he was jokingly told by his dad growing up that if you kill a tresspasser, just be sure to drag him into the house.
Not to mention that they were shot in the back. Cold blood, anyone? What I cannot believe is that the shooter got off and is now considered a hero by many.
Justice is to be handed out by the police and our court systems, NOT by white trash with an itchy trigger finger.

Dude, this aint the Old West, the shooter is not Wyatt Earp and the robbers weren't Desperados. They were walking away with their loot and he shot them in the back, in cold blood.
