He might have about 10 seconds to explain himself but it would not take much belligerence to shorten that window. Good answer. In 10 seconds you'd probably find he's drunk and in the wrong house. Fortunately I have a big yellow dog that handles most of that 10 second interchange. That takes me off of the hair trigger status and gives me time to assess the situation. I really do not want to shoot a neighbor's kid, even if he was a burglar but if I felt my family was threatened, bang bang. I assume that JPS has never had to deal with a belligerent drunk. My prior work used to put me in touch with them frequently. And no one said the kid was beligerent. He was doing what 1000 kids did this past weekend after too much to drink, they were trying to sneak into their own houses undetected. Unfortunately this kid wasn't busted by his parents but an overeager asshole who shot before he could properly assess the situation. And now he'll live with the image of having killed someone's child who meant no harm to him. The kid was just trying to go home. Sickening and there are plenty of idiots in this group calloused enough to find justification. This country is ****ing nuts. I do hope you educate your kids about the perils of breaking and entering in the nighttime. No one was breaking and entering. Went through an open window into what he thought was his own house. The guy who shot him looks to be a loon. I understand how you might easily relate to him. Perhaps you should reach out to your fellow loon in his hour of need. |

assess the situation. You don't know that at all... But do make it up as you go along, just like the Zimmerman case... Or Sharpton/Brawley.. |

==== Sorry you didn't like my offer of tea and cookies. At our house we make it a point to leave no doors or windows unlocked at night. Anyone entering has already forced their way in, and in my mind, that is justification enough to open fire. State law agrees with that position. Well then, I'm glad you didn't accidently kill one of your kids for being stupid. === Don't know about your kids but mine are smart enough to not try and force their way into a house. |

My take away from Zimmerman is even if you are right and the shooting is justified, it still may cost you $300,000 to stay out of jail. My takeaway is that if you are part of some sort of neighborhood watch, and you aren't supposed to be "watching" with a gun, well, you shouldn't be. My takeaway is that if Zimmerman didn't have his gun handy, he wouldn't have so aggressively pursued the kid and escalated a situation into a homicide. Well, he might have stabbed him... repeatedly. |

Zimmerman might have been beaten to death. |

Sorry, I don't probe the sordid details of these incidents of yours. Be sure to educate your children about the perils of leaving windows open at night. Maybe you could get Harry to come over and educate you and the kids about how to deal with things that go bump in the night. You competing for the scummy asshole award with the snot nosed freak? |
