Did he get what he deserved?

I have always liked Adam Corrolas advice on having a gun in the home as protection

Get a shotgun. Keep it by your bed and when you heard and intruder. Sometime just the **** of the shotgun will be enough to get the running the eff the other way. If cocking the gun isn't enough, the first shell is a blank. If that doesn't scare them off, the second round is rock salt, if that doesn't work the 3 and probably last round is real.

Now I know who to rob. I get at least two pumps out of you. (hey, kind of like your wedding night!)

I'm with Franklin on this one. I would have no guilt for defending my family, my life and my property.

That's easy to say, and it may be true for you, but I don't think any of us can say definitively how we would feel, unless we've done it. I personally hope I'm never put in that position. But if I am, I hope I have the calmness to do it. And I think it would affect me psychologically. But I would prefer that to what I would go through knowing I didn't/couldn't protect my family.
 
I hit a kid on a bike with my suburban, damn near killed him. I watched two people die in the Jordan River last year. One of my good friends killed 4 people with his car. Not a day goes by that I don't think about those things. I can't imagine what it would be like if I had been on the killing end of things.

Death can really F up your mental state, no matter how prepared you think you are.

To me there is a huge difference between killing a burgler (who could be a murderer, rapist or who knows what) and hitting and killing an inocent kid with your car.

Yes, it is night and day. But when it's all said and done, you've taken another persons life. That person will never breathe again. Their family will never see them again. All of the dreams that that person had are gone, for ever, probably over a few bad decisions. I have a hard time thinking that even the toughest of you people could just shrug it off.

It's not about being a badass, Trout. It's about your mental make-up. The burliest mountain man could breakdown like a baby where the most timid man would not feel any guilt.

There were a lot of hardened WWII vets who had serious PTSD but they didn't talk about it because of the stigma placed on doing so by their peers and the nation as a whole. That pressure came because a whole lot of the vets not only felt no shame or guilt, but were quite proud of their accomplishments.

We are individual people and are as diverse emotionally as we are physically. No two people look alike just as no two people are going to react the same following a self defense episode.

That is rough. Sorry to hear all of those things.

Haha, I never said it was about being a bad *** -- I just happen to know that I'm the manliest man I know, and death rocks me. For little bitch-*** tricks like you, I imagine it'd blow your universe. I guess we'll just have to wait until you kill someone to finally know the truth.

That's the guy that got shot. I personally don't own any guns(nor know how to use them) even though I fully support the 2nd, maybe when I have a family, but that thing on his lip might make a nice target.
