HOME OWNER KILLS HOME INVADER

Forums: Guns, Dave Is Okay, Daves Wet Dream
Email this Topic • Print this Page

A man was asleep in his Everett, Washington home when he was awakened
by the sound of breaking glass. The homeowner retrieved a .38-caliber revolver,
went to investigate and discovered a man armed with a hammer climbing through
a kitchen window. The homeowner shot and killed the home invader.

Investigators made clear that they do not plan to charge the homeowner,
with Prosecuting Attorney Mark Roe explaining, “We are quite certain
that a jury would conclude that the shooting was justifiable self-defense.”
Police also noted that the deceased criminal was a suspect in a January burglary investigation.

I just learned today that on average 80 people are killed everyday in America by gunshots. I doubt they are all home invaders.

Why couldn't he have just shot to wound instead of kill? Shoot in the knee cap or hand or something?

@Mame,

Don't be silly, little girl. That just ain't American.

Obviously, you're not familiar with rule #1 from the Cowboy Code.

1. The cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage.

It was in the kitchen.
Maybe it fell into the sink.

If not, he can sue decedent 's estate for damages.

I dunno. I hope that thay deserved it.

What is the source of your information ?

Most of the time,
when criminal predators merely SEE defensive guns
being brought to bear against them, thay swiftly flee.

That is what happend in my own case.

@farmerman,

Instead of making jokes, Farmer, why don't you address the truth of the matter. You're a bona fide academic, right?

Quote:

Small Arms Treaty

Claim: A U.N. small arms treaty signed by the U.S. provides a "legal way around the 2nd Amendment."

FALSE

Example: [Collected via e-mail, April 2010]

...

We will wake up one morning and find that the United States has signed a treaty that prohibits firearm and ammunition manufacturers from selling to the public. We will wake up another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that prohibits any transfer of firearm ownership. And then, we will wake up yet another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that requires US citizens to deliver any firearm they own to the local government collection and destruction center or face imprisonment. This has happened in other countries, past and present!

THIS IS NOT A JOKE OR A FALSE WARNING.

As sure as government health care will be forced on us by the Obama administration through whatever means necessary, so will gun control.

...

Please forward this message to others who may be concerned about the direction in which our country is headed. This is a very serious matter! Silence will lead us to Socialism!!!

Origins: Although the United Nations has been studying the feasibility of effecting an Arms Trade Treaty (ATT), the above-referenced piece of scarelore about the United States' having already entered into a such a treaty — one which supposedly provides a "legal way around the 2nd Amendment" and will result in a "complete ban on all weapons for US citizens" — is erroneous in all its particulars.

You reveal yourself to be a lying piece of crap, Farmer. Some academic you are.

Shoot in the knee cap or hand or something?

There r some problems with that:
1. If he survives, he might well sue u,
telling all kinds of lies to support his claim in tort against u
hoping for as good of a settlement as he can get from your homeowners insurance.

2. Those r not good targets, Mame; hard to hit, moving n small.
U can waste your ammunition, when u need it.

My own personal vu, favors aiming at the pelvic girdle.
It tends to slow them down. Many criminals don't like to be shot there.
Thay think it brings bad luck when their intestines r contacted by gunfire.
( Probably an idle superstition. )

That's a complete pile of crap, Joe. Of course you won't hear any of the 'Mericans like Farmerman or OmSig discuss it because they know that it will lead them to topics that they would much rather avoid.

Isn't that a fantastic position for an academic to take? What do you think, Farmer?
