Does breaking and entering constitute death penalty via lethal injection?
No? Then why are citizens killing people left and right for crossing property lines?
Tip: the gun culture is to blame.
Someone enters your home without being invited while you and you family are eating dinner. Do you ask them their intentions? Do you hand over one of your children? Do you call 911 and hope that they arrive in time?
It's not stupid. It goes to the entire point. You want to dismiss this example because it's a mailman in broad daylight. But you don't want to address the GLARING issue with what actually happened, that the couple WANTED someone to come into their garage, that it wasn't a home invasion when the homeowner actually had to run outside, that the homeowner couldn't see who was in his garage and just wildly started shooting. Hey, shut the garage door, lock the trespasser in, and call the police. Even if you have to wait a half-hour for the police to show up, at least no one's dead.
The homeowner is a lunatic, no doubt about that. The world has many such people. The teen was a burglar who had no respect for other peoples property. Lunatic meets burglar.
We cam all say "well if the homeowner didn't set a trap, or if the owner locked his doors, or whatever." The glaring truth in this sad tale is that the teen put himself in harms way by choosing to be a thief. Eventually his father will have to accept that he raised a criminal. Crime can be a dangerous occupation.
The homeowner will no doubt be found guilty and jailed. Society will be better for it. Society is always better when criminals meet their fate.
