". stop bragging about killing people."
What a dopy comment. I haven't gathered anyone has bragged about killing someone. We get your stance Jack, so bottle it and stop trying to get the last word in and then suggest we all get back to work. FORT WORTH - An employee of a south-side roofing business shot a man he thought was a burglar late Wednesday, police said. The wounded man was in serious condition at John Peter Smith Hospital on Thursday, officials say. Officers went to Lon Smith Roofing, 904 E. Waggoman St., about 11:30 p.m. to investigate a report of a shooting, Sgt. Pedro Criado, a police spokesman, wrote in a news release. A company employee told them that he had responded to an alarm, and when he arrived, he saw a man coming out of the business "with some stolen property," Criado wrote. The employee warned the man that he had a weapon and ordered him to stop, Criado wrote. "The suspect reportedly charged the employee. The employee shot the suspect with one shot from a .38-caliber handgun," Criado wrote. The employee had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, and the case was under investigation Thursday, Criado said. It will be presented to a Tarrant County grand jury, which will determine whether it should go to trial. - Bill Miller http://www.star-telegram.com/metro_news/story/1565735.html Stories like this one are unfortunately common place around the country, but in some ways necessary. The more times people like this are stopped the less likely they will think to try it again at your place of business or home. From all preliminary accounts this employee is a hero and has been treated as such. Regardless of where you live it is impossible for law enforcement to be everywhere at all times. This in part why our founding fathers wrote the Second Amendment and why it is important to all law abiding citizens.

Hardly anyone (or any state) would deny you the ability to use lethal force to defend your life. That's a lot different from hunting down and killing someone who steals or destroys your property at a remote location and is not threatening your life. A remote crime against property should be handled by the local law enforcement authorities. At any rate, discussions about killing are off-topic for this list. I'd suggest that we all get back to work and stop bragging about killing people. jack Jayson Baker wrote: This is also the case in Colorado. I remember a couple years ago a guy came to the door of a couple's home, they opened the door and the guy showed them a knife. The wife beat the crap out of the guy with a baseball bat. He was DOA when the cops got there. She/they weren't charged at all.

Also, what kind of felony can one do on another persons property?

People get clubbed or shot at all the time when they are surprised by someone being there, and they go into "can't let this person tell anyone what we just did" mode. Is it really worth the confrontation over a tower? Maybe if you could take 10 other guys with you, but otherwise it's not worth it. By the time you get there, the tower will already be over. 15 seconds with an 18v milwaukee sawzall and a sharp blade will cut through a tower leg like butter.
