I understand your point, but, as a pro-gun individual myself, I don't like the blood-thirstiness I see in posts on articles like this.

I thought that the pro-2nd Amendment idea was that our judicial system can do its role better if citizens can defend themselves at times when official assistance is not available. Not the same as an excuse to execute anyone who threatens you on your property. I know many here feel differently....

I must say I agree with you. Not to mention, if you kill the perp, his survivors may very well sue you for everything you've got, for the "unjustified" murder of their sweet little boy.

It seems to me the lenient judicial system and homeowner liability would require the prudent victim to make damn sure the perp is dead.
