That is so true and what it seems every some called American here seems to have forgotten and it rather pathetic top see. Seems some of us should re-evaluate what it means to be an American.

We, should, have the right to defend one's nation and the citizen's of it from tyrany and evil without fear of being looked down upon as a criminal like the one you defended individual freedom and safety from.

 

Are we talking about evil and tyranny here or a couple of house burglars who saw a man with a loaded gun, got scared shitless, tried to run away, and got shot in the back?

They were scared of going to prison. They obviously weren't scared of the gun, or they would probably have froze. They SHOULD have been scared of the gun.

 

What's up with marginalizing their crime by calling them "house burglars" would it have been better if they were "bank burglers?"

They were criminals comitting multiple felonies. We don't know their state of mind, but we do know the guys state of mind who shot them. Fear.

 

When someone steps into crimes that involve victims, they move themselves into that category of "people who might kill me," and therefore when I face them, I'm afraid for my life. Sudden movements are not advised.

 

Anyway, when the hell did this country get so secular-progressive that we cry for every burglar who gets shot trying to rob someone?

When you feel your life is in danger when someone else is in the act of comitting a felony, even if your own dumbassedness put you in the situation where your life is in danger, then you should feel free to kill the hell out of whoever you feel is threatening your life. You know the term "bolting" right. Well, these guys bolted. That split second or two when your unsure where they are bolting too, is plenty of just cause to shoot them dead.

 

Maybe it's our society where we think burglary and tresspassing are just comicly funny and relatively unimportant crimes, when in fact they are major felonies and are punishable by as many years in prison as manslaughter.

To be honest, I blame GTAIV.
