A Masked Man is Kicking Open Your Door at 4 A.M.
June 24th, 2009
Are you in fear for your life and the life of your wife?
Murdoc’s answer is: Yes, almost certainly.
In Florida, a masked man invaded one home, left, and then tried to invade another. The second homeowner shot him twice.
“Our homeowner didn’t have an obligation to retreat. He is able to protect his property,” said Lt. James Clark, of the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. “The questions we’re trying to answer: If he was in fear for his life and the life of his wife. If he was, he would be justified in this shooting.”
Florida’s passage of a Castle Doctrine law has been controversial in some circles. Including, I suspect, the criminal circles.
The shootee has an
extensive criminal history involving drugs, fleeing/eluding law enforcement. He was also investigated for a previous armed robbery.

The police in our city get many 911 calls just because someone is KNOCKING on the door at 4:00am. I’d venture a guess that most people would be scared to death to learn a stranger is breaking into their house at 4:00am.

You break into my place at 4 am and I’ll pump you so full of lead that any deep sea diver would be jealous over how fast you’d sink to the bottom of the sea.
Nobody has any business in my place at 4 am, nobody except myself and my family. So yes, if someone would break into my place at 4 am, I would be very scared, not so much about myself, but rather about my family.

Had to double check but yes there was a happy ending- another dead dirtbag.
