Home defense

[oink]

There is a delay from perception to motor movement. It's possible the resident felt threatened when confronted by the burglar who was advancing on him. He then produced the shotgun to defend himself and sent to message to his finger, the burglar turned to flee but not soon enough for the resident's message to finger to be canceled. It's hard to second guess a situation like that. The bottom line is that when burglarizing another persons property, you're shooting craps. It would be interesting to know what the angle of entry was and from what distance, what lighting and time of day etc. If 20 yrds away then the resident may have serious problems. If 20 ft or less he should be given the benefit of the doubt. I should not be required to risk my life to allow every benefit to a felon who has placed his/herself in that position.
