I know I wasn't there and I acknowledge the worst case scenario and also they had no idea what weapons the bad guys had but did they all have to die?

I can't quarterback it, just talking here.

Because you can maybe kill them all doesn't mean you should, lol. One yell and a shot in the floor would of sent them scurrying like rats n all directions but I wasn't there and know little from the report

I don't know their criminal histories and such but all three dead, not just the first in the door?

I know, if any got away maybe they kill someone tomorrow so good riddance just...I don't know, just crap all around no matter how you look at it

That they could come back another day, or attack/rob someone else, has to be considered. They won't be doing that again, ever. Shame they didn't know better in the first place, but I'd say the shots were fired as they should have been. No one can say what they'd have done if they'd met no resistance.

Ummm...I totally agree with you my friend...my comments weren't meant to pass judgement...matter of fact I'd have probably used my 45/70 on the perps...that or the 12 gauge...

It was more an observation on my continuing conversation on the human condition...versus how much of that condition...is conditioned in a social system...
If I get the time...I'll make a thread about that so we can discuss it within it's own context...
I also appreciate the response...I consider you one of the more intellectual/intelligent...members of our little ATS society...

Thank you

Don't rely either on the mercy or the intelligence of criminals.

Execute all criminals, got it. Back off the hair trigger there.... troop.

I see what you did there.. that's real nice. I must be a crazy person because i was a soldier, right? Just ready to shoot anyone for any reason?

People like you are ridiculous and live in a fantasy world.

Carjackers kill man in front of his family because they were angry they couldn't drive a stick shift

Maybe you should shut the hell up and be mindful of what you say before you address someone else with such disrespect.

No, just a little keyed up.. For you the war is over, you can come home now and beat your swords to plowshares.

Another deeply judgmental and idiotic comment.
