Another scumbag gets to provide a much more valuable service fertilizing our dirt. No charges filed against the victim.

That whooshing sound you hear is that giant toilet flushing another piece of human waste.

Gun control is never having to say, "I missed you".

That's a shame.

I'm sure he was a "good boy"!

But he was in Chicago. It's a gun free zone so there is no crime.

I'm sure Mr. Harris had to unlock his bedroom, unlock the safe with a combination and a biometric eye scan to retrieve the gun. He then had to open a separate safe with 2 keys and a PIN number to get the ammo. Guns and ammo can't be stored together since the ammo may magically enter the gun and kill the next person that picks it up.

I'm glad that Mr. Harris had a weapon so that he wasn't victimized by the thuglette.

Chicago unemployment is at 10%, imagine how high it is for teenagers. I'm not defending the kid, because the home owner did the right thing. You have to wonder if this kid would have even committed this crime if there had not been such high unemployment for the past three years.

WOW people think this way is the scary thing. Just wow.

Thugs are thugs please don't give them an excuse. So are you saying there was no crime when times we're good during the Bush years.

B&E of a home is a pretty ballsy offence and not often the work of some otherwise decent kid with a growling stomach. The kid could have just shoplifted (misdemeanor).

Guys home has been broken into 5 times in 40 years.

So Chicago has unemployment 1 - 2% over the national average, imagine how high it is for teenagers in America.

How come teenagers across America aren't doing what this criminal did?
