I Told Ya So: Texas Man Cleared for Killing Burglars

[Ser Clegane]

Easy to say as an observer. Still, what would you do if someone broke into your home and you had a weapon? Let them get away with it because life is so precious?

Sooo ... death penalty for burglars and thieves? And I thought cutting off hands was already pretty harsh punishment...

And to answer your question (although you did not ask me) - when someone stole something from me, my first thought was definitely not "Gosh - if I had a gun now I would so kill this guy".

Those men made a conscious decision to commit to criminal activity and all the inherent risks associated with such an endeavor.

Based on that I would suggest that people also should be shot on the spot for e.g. speeding or drunk driving (even more so as these people are a direct threat to the safety and lives of other people)
