>Hey if the guy is breaking into a house then yep he stands the chance of getting shot.

>A few things I don't get though - first of all the guy was outside & from what I understand you can't shoot a burglar unless he's...ummm..ya know - like INSIDE your house. Secondly not only was he 'slumped on the back doorstep of the couple's house' - but he was there for FOUR HOURS? So why was he there for so long? Guy hears someone at his back door - then shoots the guy - then decides to wait 4 hours to make a phone call? I dunno it sounds kinda fishy to me.
>And speaking of 'criminal' - the homeowner is technically a criminal too - Chicago currently has a statute outlawing the possession of handguns.
>So is that what your boo-hoo-ing about? Don't feel sorry for the 80year old criminal with an illegal handgun who shot a guy for trespassing?
A homeowner defended his property. I applaud his actions.
He did it in apparant violation of liberal laws designed to protect criminals and make their jobs safer. Again - I applaud his actions.
