Let me ask you again: If the homeowner had not shot the criminal, what should the criminal have done? You [[and others) seem all too eager to criticize the homeowner for his actions, but what do you think the criminal should have done? Why has no one second-guessed his actions?
He's doing what every other "innocent" burglar in Detroit does. What has he got to lose? Homeowners will not shoot him, or at least they are not supposed to by DetroitYES! standards. The police will not come after him because they are too busy. The jury will not convict him because there is always a "reasonable doubt". And if he goes to prison, he gets 3 meals a day, free housing, free health care, free legal service, free entertainment, free security, etc. Hell, if I weren't so stupid working for a living, I'd probably burglarize houses too!EastsideAl: What the hell is a 53 year old man doing out there robbing houses?
