Sound reasonable to me. This is exactly waht I told all my daughter's bo's I'd do. A man's just gotta follow thru on his word. Poor kid, probably didn't believe the father when he told him what he'd do if....
NOT reasonable. You do NOT shoot a 17 year old kid for this type of thing, PERIOD. We don’t even know if there was any hanky panky going on. Maybe he was hiding because Dad is a nutjob. (Gee, what would make one suspect that?)
All joking aside (and some of it is pretty funny), lifetime paralysis is NOT a justifiable consequence. I don’t think those of you who are tacitly approving this nutjob’s actions know someone facing a lifetime of paralysis. It sucks, something I would not wish on anyone (with a couple jihadist exceptions).
If you really mean that, then since the 17 yo girl was consensual in the behavior, can I assume you mean you would also have beaten her in a similar manner? Shot at her? This wasn't assault on the part of the young man.
Was your daughter so helpless at 17 that she would have been forced by a boyfriend in her own bedroom? Doesn't say a lot for your parenting abilities.
At that age my daughter could take care of herself with any male. If she had been doing anything, it would not have been against her will. I would have been pissed at the boy, but I would have considered her responsible, had it been consensual on her part.
To destroy a 19 yo life because of mutual behavior between a 17 and 19 year old is unexcuseable. 60 years in a wheelchair is fair punishment for normal sexual desires of teenagers? Geez. Scary.
