Which is why if you use deadly force to protect yourself you need to make sure it is deadly so you don't get sued by the criminal later.

Not sure how it is in other states in this crappy economy, but in Texas we are having constant cases of invaders getting killed trying to invade peoples home lately. I could post some of the cases but a Google search shows a lot of them, if anyone is interested. Some of the recent cases of self defense with deadly consequences for the criminal are pretty crazy.

At least strangling him to death didn't make a bloody mess on the carpet. :thumbsup:

the guy probably crapped or pissed himself while he was being choked to death. I'm sure a steam cleaner will get it out.

I'm assuming you're referring to the thread where the guy beat up the daughter's boyfriend, which has significant differences from this situation.

does it really? REALLY?

hate to agree with 2 people on this board, mosh and olds, and yet again here i am agreeing w/ olds... :(

The teen awoke to find a naked man in her room and began screaming, alerting McNally, police said.

That's a pretty important difference.

sorry, attempted a bad pun.

in BOTH cases, dad was the owner of the house and unless power of attorney or some other shit was granted was the only one with any say on who was allowed in the house. intentions don't matter.

I think you need to resurrect the other thread if you want to continue discussing this absurdity.

I seriously doubt that the dad is celebrating killing someone -- even if the person was a convicted douchebag rapist.

He's probably just grateful that he was there to protect his daughter.

I think most here are glad that finally, the good guy won for a change.

I wish that scumbag got shot in the nuts and bled to dead instead of being choked to dead.

I think it can be hard to interpret the intentions of a string of words on the internet.

I don't really feel anyone is truly celebrating death, as that is indeed morbid. However, speaking for myself, I am more or less celebrating the fact that the dad was able to successfully protect his daughter, property and himself, and bring justice to a child rapist. They are scum and truly don't deserve to live, however I also would never suggest going off and killing all registered sex offenders. But when they are found in the act, and your family is on the line, I will definitely celebrate this outcome out of pure justice.

I won't be celebrating the death, but it also won't cause me shed any tears.

Also stupid for wearing gloves to not leave fingerprints but not wearing socks to prevent toeprints.

They take toeprints in jail?

they don't really have a database or anything for footprints, but they will attempt to find a match to a discovered footprint by sampling suspects.

but... toeprints :D

The thing is, they have a huge database of semen samples. And if the perp came in, and ejaculated on everything - bingo - you have your suspect. But nooooo.....

No, thats only if the man was a police officer, and had he needed to shoot him, to shoot him in the foot or something, because the police should never take anothers life...

is this the same story that was posted a few days ago about the dad chasing someone out of his daughters room who was also naked, but she invited him in because they were screwing for the last year?

well one story had the dad chasing the kid out and the kid got to his sisters and called the cop. the other story has the dad choking the guy to death.

so hmm no i don't think they are the same.
