Quote:If I owned a store and I was being robbed, and somehow I was able to get a hold of my gun as well.....first reaction is to start shooting. If they are running because they see my gun, so be it.

 

Why do I have to show good judgement when someone enters my property to rob me and I am able to turn the table on them?  If they had the chance to shoot him they would have taken it (or else why bring a gun?)

 

You may need to read DF's post again.

 


As I understand it, the robbery was over, the punks left the store where they were confronted by a bystander, and subsequently shot to death.

The details are sketchy, but I don't agree with vigilantism. Too many people may take the law into their own hands before due process. So without further information on this particular shooting, I only would side with the bystander if he was being threatened at that time.


 

Just need to make sure some rules are still followed. Other than that, they got what they deserved.
