Retiree shoots pregnant intruder

[Madness]

I'm talking about your fucked up attitude - for someone who is tasked with upholding the law.

It's a pre-requisite for joining up these days, I'm convinced of it.

One is his career - presuming he does his job well he follows the law and enforces it accordingly.

When not working is he not entitled to his own personal opinion.

Really? You're happy that a cop endorses murder as his personal opinion?

Murder? I did not see anything about the shooter being charged and convicted of murder or anything (yet). Be interesting to follow it up and see if he is charged and if so the result. Self defense?

Pretty sure the same cop has stated he fats around on his Harley wearing one of those skull masks - I personalty don't like them and would not expect to see police wearing them at work (be kind of cool though) but out of work he can wear what he likes.

I've seen WOF inspectors who are obviously very prejudiced against 'boy racers' (for want of a term) when inspecting their car. Few years back I was getting a wof - next in line was a very nicely kitted out ricer that was obviously the mans pride and joy - WOF inspector turned to me grinning and said 'he's failed' ......... with the condition of the car he had dropped serious coin on it and everything was probably certified.

Any sane person who has read the article and watched the video can tell it was a cold blooded, unsanctioned execution. That accounts to murder in my books.

To be fair he comes across somewhat redneck. But we have limited information to go on and getting involved in the Courts here through my current job the facts covering all matters are very important.

And that video may have been edited to hell to make sensational TV. The actual footage may have gone -
'she screamed not to shoot I am pregnant'
'I asked her to lift her top to prove it and she did but she had a Uzi strapped to her stomach'
'So I shot her'

Could have been prevented if nobody tried to rob the old bugger...

Are you really that thick?

I'm talking about your attitude towards an execution - not the robbery itself.

So you believe the media when it suits? Interesting

We're all basing our opinion simply on what we've read and seen - including scumdog.

It appears that she might not have even been on his property when he shot her.

Self-defense? Hmmm, maybe not.

Now we are getting somewhere

Sorta like you base your opinion on me????

[Katman]

Exactly - I base my opinion of you on the words you present as your opinion.

All I see is an aged man defending his right not to be robbed and beaten.

Good on the old guy. In this had heppened in NZ we would all be wringing our hands about another home invasion.
