Another one bites the dust

Betcha this guy wished he didn't charge an armed man, even if he was 75 years old. According to the article, one of the intruders (the dead one), had been in jail 12 times in the past 3 years and had cases pending against him for several other charges. The key words were said by Macon Police Lt. Carl Fletcher - "He reacted... to protect himself and his property."

That's right, property. Apparently, the good folks down in Macon (only about 30 miles from my hometown) understand that a person's private property is actually a product of that person's time, finances, and/ or labor, something my current city of residence doesn't seem to understand.

M-
I believe we both agree that protecting private property and family go hand-in-hand. I've never heard of a case where a home invasion happened just so the intruder could take the home.

Of course we both know what would happen if someone were to invade our homesteads...
