[QUOTE="Rez Exelon, post: 3586550, member: 5800"] I don't think there's a defense for the shooting generally in this case, but to your point, if there's video of it, there's a good chance he saw it on his phone. I launch my cameras on my phone pretty quick if I hear unexpected sounds in the night at least, although that's just me. Not a place I want to go either, but I'm not going to think that shooting someone that made that decision is the right way to go in any universe either. I argued that point severely with some people until the mods started stepping in. (They didn't see fit to remove the post that insinuated I was good with murdering children but that's a different matter altogether). I was born with nothing, spent most of my life with little to nothing, and I'll die with nothing I can take with me. I like my crap in the middle, but it's all just crap in the middle. There's two times I've been drawn --- one of them was in fact someone trying to beat my door down (not jiggle it, but actually beat it down) --- and I didn't shoot through the door then. My point is that for a website full of folks that supposedly claim the moral high ground a lot, there's a lot of people that are totally cool with shooting people over BS stuff and then giving reasons like "I'm too old to deal with it any other way" or "It's mine and I can defend it as I please" or whatever. This thread to me has a real parallel to the flag one because it's different views but still essentially shooting people over property and I won't be surprised to see folks that DO think the guy was 100% justified. Personally, I think there are some points in the original article that give reason to think he does have [I]some [/I]support for his choice, but I don't think, on an initial reading with limited evidence, that it looks all that great for him being in a legally, or morally, justifiable position.
