Can't say they didn't have it coming. I hope he doesn't get charged for anything.

Liberals all across this country HATE the Castle Doctrine. They've fought tooth and nail against it. That's part of the reason why I hate Liberalism. Because nothing sensible comes from a group of people who find protecting the intruder instead of the victims the right thing to do.

SCUM.

He did what he had to do.

Frankly I don't take any pleasure in reading about a dead 15 or 16 year old. I just don't understand what is going on in the heads of some young people today that they think violently taking someone's property is an acceptable form of behavior.

You make outlandish generalizations before a liberal even posts in this thread, and then attack all of us, and we're the SCUM?

I have no problem with the Castle Doctrine. You fail.

Hope this guy doesn't get charged since if the story is true as told here, they had it coming. But I don't know if the Castle Doctrine really applies to bicycles. If you are IN a vehicle, some states will recognize that, but riding a bike might be a stretch. I have a feeling that the liberals will come out of the woodwork on this one.

This thread? FAIL.

Castle Doctrine:

A Castle Doctrine (also known as a Castle Law or a Defense of Habitation Law) is an American legal doctrine that designates a person's abode (or, in some states, any place legally occupied, such as a car or place of work) as a place in which the person has certain protections and immunities and may in certain circumstances attack an intruder without becoming liable to prosecution.

Castle doctrine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This old man sounds like he wanted to emulate the Charles Bronson character in the Death Wish movies.
