-=> Quoting Bob Lawrence to John Tserkezis <=-

Hello Bob,

 BL> A classic example was the antique dealer who chased the buglar
 BL> and shot him in the back. His problem was proving he was in
 BL> fear of his life. Once it got before the jury, they were quite
 BL> happy to turn him loose.
 
 JT> Shoot to kill. I bet the burglar would get away with it if the
 JT> owner missed. 

 BL> That's true too. A dead body has trouble telling its side of the
 BL> story.
 
 What own story?  What does the owner care what the burglar has to say?  The
owner has a business, and the burglar was trying to take something without
exchanging money.  That is illegal.  Fuck the burglar.
