Castle owners defending the castle

John Lilya of This Ain’t Hell – But you can see it from here every day comes up with homeowner defense of property, part of that “We hold these truths to be self-evident” understanding.

“Carrie Leigh Richards, 24, and Hannah Nicole Kenney, 23 broke into a Greenville, South Carolina home which alerted the homeowner’s dogs. The resident met them with his firearm which he used to hold the pair until the police arrived to cart them off to the hoosegow.

‘In Cincinnati, Ohio a group of armed men forced their way into a college student’s apartment. The student, though, was armed, too and busted caps on the group. It looks like he missed them all, though, but they all un-assed the AO at a high rate of speed.

“You might remember the story of Trayvon Johnson from last month in Miami. Florida where Treyvon tried to burglarize a home, but the woman who lived there killed him. His cousin famously defended Trayvon’s life of crime as his sole means of support. Well, his brother, Vaughn, turned himself in yesterday as Trayvon’s accomplice that day. Vaughn made a video confession and he’s been charged with Trayvon’s murder.”

(My unsensitivity meter really kicked in when Trayvon’s cousin demanded to know how, other than by robbing, the criminal was expected to get money to buy stuff? We could talk about making choices, but as my wife says, “You can’t argue with idiots.”)
