WOW...
Some early reports had a couple neighbors saying that the fatality was shot on the porch and he was only trying to sell his phone.
But, and I think this is critical, his body was inside the house, according to the police spokesman well inside, and the evidence inside the house indicated he had been shot inside the house.
Nope, but you are ready to cede to the intruder...that is completely obvious...you would rather the intruder get what they want, no matter what happens to the children...
This child made a decision, why do you disagree with that decision?
Why do you side with the intruder?
I answered your 9, 5 question earlier....are you not able to comprehend?
No you did not answer the question ....memory problem
Here let me help you:
so how young is too young, elementary school, kindergarten?

Adults with children have shot their children coming into their house at night through a window, 65, 59, 55 year olds HAVE made bad decisions...

The question was how young and your answer was older people have problems, makes sense.
So if I asked you if it's raining your response might be the sun will be up in the morning, still an answer I guess.
I am beginning to understand now, the answer may not even be remotely connected to the question. Thanks for clarifying.
OBVIOUSLY your ability to comprehend is not that good. My point was, this 11 year old made a decision that was right, right?
50 - 60 - 70 year old's have made worse choices than this 11 year old...point being, there is no answer, I cannot believe that you could not figure that out.
If a 5 year old did the same thing, would you be pissed, in this same situation? Or would you rahter have the 5 year old dead? I think you, just in this same situation would rather have the 11 year old dead along with the other child...
Or would you be mad that the 5 year old saved the life of both people?
Your clarification has been and was very clear, the problem is your inability to comprehend...
Back in the 50's, 60's the world was a very different place, today very violent. There many things we did growing up that today you wouldn't think of doing, I am sure there are some that still live that way but certainly not in most cities or suburbs.
I agree, but I grew up in the 90's......
Like I said, my example isn't the way every parent should do things. You've got to know your kids, your own situation, and make an informed decision. What works for one family might not work for another, and visa versa.
And naturally, when anything is ever left up to individual discretion, there's always going to be the chance for error, but.....
What's the average police response time nationwide?
If it's much more than 10 or 15 seconds, 911 isn't going to help when the intruder is already halfway through the door.
Even at 3 minutes, that's an eternity in that situation.
