skin, no sweat, and don't take my tone to be pissed either. i think about shit like this a lot because i am overly protective of my family and i am a little paranoid and am too often looking to make a fight where there should be none..so i can be a little testy when these matters come up.
Nutz, agreed.
Mad, if I caught a Mexican I'd throw my gun aside and we'g go toe-to-toe like those two guys in the Michael Jackson Beat It Video, tie our wrists and pull out the switchblades, Harlan would be to the side jumping up and down and clapping frantically in an excited manner.
mraynrand said it very well as did skin that we all have different levels of shit we would put up with before making a move. criteria that would effect it (gun in house, family to protect, insurance on personal items, time of day, how you react to stress of the moment, neighborhood you live in, visual of the perps) would alter all of our tolerance levels and we might get 20 different reactions to 20 perp confrontations.
True story...15 years ago two perps entered my parents' three level home, proceeded directly upstairs and into the master bedroom where they found and stole two very expensive pieces of jewelry and made their way out of the house, undetected. It was summertime and broad daylight, my father was at work, my mother was actually in the basement of the house and had no clue it happened (everything is carpeted in plush, easy to roam house in silence) until she made her way upstairs later on and noticed the jewelry box on her dresser sitting open and the two pieces missing. She about had a mental breakdown because of it and it took months before she could be in that home alone with the doors unlocked. They installed a security system immediately.
My question to anyone willing to answer..let's say you happened to be in that master bedroom of my parents' house when the perps walked in, what would you have done? I'll even say you had a pistol close by and got hold of it as they entered the room (it's a pretty good sized room)..so, are the two perps dead? What do you think you would have done?
I would have put up my dukes like 30's style boxing an shit.
If a pistol was available I would have ordered them on the ground and if they didn't comply I'd start shooting

Same. And they don't have 20 seconds to think about it either.
On February 5, 1997 a civil jury in Santa Monica, California unanimously found Simpson liable for the wrongful death of Ronald Goldman, battery against Ronald Goldman, and battery against Nicole Brown.
Wrong again scott..that is a civil jury...and that isn't conviction for murder. Why don't you read what you wrote..."wrongful death." That isn't murder, my friend.
Since you have been so keen to say that mr. horn followed the law, what he did was legal..then i would expect the same sorta ethics from you. Murder is murder, wrongful death is wrongful death. For you to libel OJ in this manner is...just wrong.
And, you are a bit hasty...are you sure that Mr. Horn wouldn't be found liable as well?
Gosh, I am not sure about the etiquette in these types of situations.
Congratulations! I hope it is very freeing and invigorating.
After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

I think most have basically already answered this question several times in this thread but in case you missed it I would have blasted first and asked questioned later. Like I said, they went IN the house. In the daytime and if the door was unlocked they likely knew someone might be home. They didnt give a fuck, why should I?
After hearing this story my heart goes out to your Mama. What if she had been up there instead of the basement? She would have never heard them coming up and would have been caught in the room. I want them dead just for the fear they put in the lady's heart. She didnt deserves that and you and your Dad wouldnt have deserved the heartache if something had happened to her.
Again, these guys had alot of nerve and this likely wasnt the first or last time they do it. Until they meet a real hero like Joe Horn.

Tyrone. I said it was a civil jury. Read my post. I said it was for wrongful death. Read my post.
I said Harlan was wrong that OJ was as innocent as Joe Horn. Read my post. And he's not. He was convicted of wrongful death in a civil trial. Joe wasn't, and isn't very likely to be, as Castle Laws typically expressly prohibit civil prosecutions in these instances.
Re: "Murder is murder, wrongful death is wrongful death. For you to libel OJ in this manner is...just wrong."
Show me where I libeled OJ, and I'll issue an apology. Please use a direct quote from me, and no supposition. I will issue said apology immediately.
