so she deserves to die because she's a thief? tatiana?? what the heck? you mean whatever she was trying to steal was worth more than her precious life?

now i know most nigerians have the ALUU spirit in them.

Fulaman198:
What gives someone the right to break into an old man's house and body slam him? In America, they call that self-defence. You can't just barge into someone elses home and allow to go scott free. Every animal is territorial, humans are no exception.

If anyone were foolish enough to step foot in a lion's territory, what do you think the male lion would do? It would stand up and defend his females and children until either the target that invades his land or "he" the lion is dead. It's called having honour. Put yourself in someone else's shoes for a change. With the way you are talking, you talk as if the 80 year old man is at fault here.

coogar:

if their economy provides for all & sundry, i doubt anyone would be that desperate to break into someone's home. america is a shyte country. there's zero support for the down-trodden hence crime is rife.

that's not self-defence. what are you defending when the imminent threat is running away from you? if they were coming at him when he shot at her, then you can argue self defence but to shoot a woman in the back while she's running is premeditated murder.



except that this man isn't a lion. he's human, not an animal. humans are expected to act logically & think of the consequences of their actions. why shoot to kill a threat that was running away, moreso a female intruder? what threat did she pose to him at that point?

i hope the old man gets shot by a stray bullet. he's the biggest coward this century. who aims & shoots a woman running away in the back? where's the code of honour in that? however, america is a useless country so i expect the man to get a purple heart for killing a woman.

Fulaman198:

You are not making any sense. Ok fine, I understand that you like people breaking into your home. But don't assume others wish for the same thing as well. That would be a huge mistake. I know if it was you, you would say "well, it's ok go ahead and break into my house and flee, I won't even do anything about it, thus is my passive nature".

coogar:

no, you are typing with your head buried in your arsë. how can you people justify the killing of a human because of whatever the old fool had in his house.

is the house not insured? what's so important to kill for? if my house is being robbed, let them fill their boots. an unfortunate insurance company would be coughing up the cost. that's the way a developed society should be.

tatiana009:

Sorry are you talking to me? I'm confused because i didn't even comment about if it was right or not that he shot her, I only pointed out that she actually lied about being pregnant. I was just updating the information , Abeg try and read carefully in future before you accuse someone. I'm totally against jungle justice or killing someone unless absolutely necessary.

tatiana009: Now as for my opinion, I think the man was wrong. Not even because she said she was pregnant but I don't think there's any reason to kill someone who was running away since he wasn't in danger at that point. However he could have shot her in the legs to stop her from escaping. That's what I would have done, that way I'll ensure that the police catch her because she could have gone on to rob another home and hurt someone or even return to harm the man and then you'll regret letting her escape, I read a report on Fox News that says the old man's collarbone had been broken by them so they definitely weren't harmless. Some thieves have even been known to return better prepared to cause more harm when they feel angry that their target had escaped, he should have just shot her in the leg. Even if he couldn't get a perfect aim, at least if he aimed at her lower region he would have reduced the chance of killing her.

who was there when she allegedly made this "i am pregnant" statement? nobody. it's the word of a geriatric fool against the deceased. he could be the liar here.



there was no reason to shoot at all......
she was running away. if anything, the other robber(male) was the biggest threat & the fear of killing one to prevent them coming back was misplaced. if anything, shooting the female & leaving the male to escape is a bigger risk. the male can still stage a comeback when the heat cools down.

this is just a case of a blood-thirsty, trigger-happy old man. maybe hunting was recently banned in his state & the urge to pull the trigger was huge. no man should ever shoot at a woman fleeing, i don't about the circumstances that musta have ensued. it just doesn't make sense to me. there's more to this story than we are being told.

tatiana009:
Now you're just saying ridiculous things in your quest to have the last word what does the old man have to gain by lying that the woman claimed to be pregnant in fact saying that only made him seem callous to a lot of people.

It's much easier for me to believe that a robber would have no problems with lying. As for letting her run away, let's agree to disagree but personally I'll never let any robber escape if I have a chance to help the police catch him or her. Robbers are a menace to the society and must be caught at all cost, I don't care if she was on drugs or not. They hurt other people all the time and must be stopped, imagine them breaking an old man's collarbone! He shot the woman because she was the slower one and that was who he could get and he was smart to. Catching the man would be easier with the woman caught. I just think he could have avoided shooting to kill if it was possible.

coogar:

people lie about everything.
i wouldn't trust a geriatric fool that had the hutzpah to shoot at a woman that was running away from her loot.



i hope he gets jailed. i hope the other members of the gang go back and torture the old fool. he deserves to die!
