I thought about that too, but he didn't shoot them. More importantly, they came into his house and didn't belong there. Even the most liberal DA couldn't do a thing to him.

After the Schiavo murder, I dont believe there isnt a low an officer of the court wont approach. Not all of them, of course, but enough of them to treat them all with suspicion. Those honest Officers among you now need to step up and prove me wrong. But after Schiavo, that will be difficult..

A malicious prosecution, with no hope of conviction just to cost the homeowner tens of thousands for bail and attorneys is common. A favorite is to require the police to search the property and confiscate all weapons for evidence and then announce that fact in the news, release the burglars on OR, and give them immunity for testimony against the homeowner.
