Like most others write, glad that this worked out & will mimic that each and every scenario is it's own entity. Can't be replicated, as what we'd do may or may not be what someone else might do.
@Lance Jacobs , thanks for the reminder. And since you started the thread, what is it that you & yours would do?
... outstanding men.
I'll have to agree with BDAs position - I have ZERO REGARD for criminals, dope addicts etc or anyone who would bring about harm to a family such as a home invasion - which I consider to be one of the worst premeditated (or impulsive crime - I don't know which is the statistical reason) criminal acts of all. I really don't think I would suffer much remorse either if I had to kill someone in this circumstance - especially looking at the pics of those who who commit these crimes - some of them are downright scary looking and would be better off dead.
Sorry being high is not an excuse... Enough of protecting the criminal...Well, but what if the person that breaks into your home is unarmed, and just acting crazy or saying threatening things to you? They may simply be high on drugs, and thus may no longer be responsible for their actions.
Does one shoot such an out of control person? In this specific situation, one of the residents shot the man in the leg. Was that maybe done deliberately? Are there situations where it might perhaps be better to just shoot to disable a person, instead of killing them? There is a definite possibility that could have been done in this case. We don't know if the person that shot this intruder has received any firearms self-defense training.

So their CHOICE to use drugs relieves them of responsibility for their actions? I believe the the choice to be high on mind-altering substances is commensurate with ones actions to be 'responsible'They may simply be high on drugs, and thus may no longer be responsible for their actions.

YUP!Regardless of any drugs or alchohol that may be affecting their mind and their actions, they are ALWAYS responsible and held accountable for their own behavior.
Yea - pretty dang liberal position to blame the drug/alcohol and not the person!Sorry being high is not an excuse... Enough of protecting the criminal...
Self preservation... I'd second that action...One more point on this subject, that I occasionally add, is that when the responders do get there they will find me doing my level best to save the rotten betards life! Looks good on the report and IMO it's the right thing to do!

It was shame to learn about his rug ... I heard it really tied the room together...The Dude abides!
