You need to make sure you use force only in the right situations, and afterwards answer questions correctly, or you could be charged like this guy:

I don’t know any details, but hopefully the vehicle owner can be cleared…

If he cannot prove that his life was in jeopardy, he is in deep doo doo.

Exactly. You can not use lethal force (generally) against someone for stealing something or damaging property. But if he were to say the man raised the shovel over his head and starting coming at him, that is a different story.

 

[Sirfishalots]

Yep.. what they said. Life and limb is one thing. Property is another unfortunately

Part of the reason I left Portland is the fear that I would be in that situation. I was done being harassed for handouts at the mini marts on my way to work. I was done with feeling the need to wear a gun on my hip inside my own home knowing that one of the many people that tried breaking into my house would eventually make it. I was done wondering if my vehicles would be in the driveway when I wake up to go to work. I was done fearing that I would be the guy in that article. I can feel my blood pressure rising just typing this. Im going for a walk to the mail box to count quail, rabbits and deer. It’s 2 miles, so I should find a lot of them.

Considering the current state of society, he was justified. The current state of our justice system says otherwise. I'd like to buy him a beer.

 

[Roady]

Never mind. Im backing out of this dumpster fire.

 

[StrawberryMTN]

You gotta drag them inside first...

Wouldn't surprise me if guy shooting gets sued for every penny...

What's the saying? Aim to kill?

 

[Herm]

you don't have the right to murder someone for breaking into your car ffs.

 

[pcstockton]

I cannot see shooting a person in this case as legal. Some of you legitimately scare the crap out of me with your rhetoric and gun talk. Man I hope I never run into any of you for any reason.

Who says you won't kill a kid next door with and ricochet? Maybe it is your drunk neighbor thinking it is his car? I just cannot imagine people shooting first in this, and most, scenarios.

It is called for hollow point ammo. I have some.

But you know enough to condemn the person that was shot and wish they are released. Very aggressive take when you do not know any details.

So a bullet that goes through a window and into a baby isn't going to hurt?

Need to know the travel area of your bullets trajectory. That was said in class.

 

[pcstockton]

It REALLY seems at times that you people actually WANT/DESIRE DEEPLY to kill someone. To bad for their children and loved ones of this person who made a very bad decision.

Like I said, some of you truly scare the crap out of me.

Oh.... all better then! Eye roll.

What class is this? Did everyone get an "A"?

…or the life of someone else.

The person who was shot was breaking at least one law, and apparently didn’t learn the fundamental lesson of…IF IT AIN’T YOURS DON’T TOUCH IT WITHOUT PERMISSION. Maybe the bullets will jog his memory next time.

As you can tell, I have zero sympathy for criminals.

Why so much sympathy for a criminal? I don’t get that.

I see that there's a lot that you don't get.

Took a class with PDX Arsenal, had my CWL for years. Killing someone would be devastating and I would not want to do that unless my own life is in jeopardy. Car insurance takes care of the perp, but there should also be consequences for him, too.
