Also, didn't the article say something about how when he left the house, he found them in his yard, close to his house, facing him? No one's addressed that.

It's a little disheartening the way some people are mourning these thieves. They had families! So if if I'm stealing a bunch of shit, and I get blown away, but I've neglected to breed first, I'm less deserving of sympathy?

I can't really feel sorry for them. The idea that they'd violate someone's home like that. It's a little like rape to me.

I agree with you that that are committing a crime and should be punished for it, but like the 911 guy said no property is worth shooting someone over, much less taking their lives. I mean this COULD have been a whole other story if he hadn't shot them. True it could mean that the burglers get away and his neighbors lose some heirlooms and what not, but it could also mean that they get caught. Since they're Mexican and they're in Texas there's a pretty good chance they'll get locked up for a real long time. I mean the man lives in a white neighborhood and any minority will know that the police will be there in like 5 minutes tops. There's a really good chance they would have been caught.

How ya doing, buddy?

Ok, my beef with the guy is he shot two men THREE times. I'm pretty sure there are only three reasons why someone would do that.

1. He shot a warning shot, given that he shot 3 rounds in rapid succession I'm pretty sure this isn't it. If it was a warning shot it would have been "Bang, Move you're dead", not Boom, click, boom, click, boom.

2. He missed. Yeah.... Standing 10-12 feet away from a target with a very big gun. Don't think so.

3. He shot to kill. Probably it. Shot a guy once, he fell on the ground and didn't move anymore. Shot the second guy, he yells many obscenities (I would supposed). By now, I would accept that he shot the two men based on self defense. I mean he probably accidently killed the first guy. But he fired that third shot and killed the third guy who's obviously not a threat seeing as how he just got shot with a shotgun.

He's a trigger happy murderer.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
