Oldster Kills Burglar

And the burglar’s family objects, saying he should have given the burglar “warning” that he had a gun and would use it. What a concept! Frankly, if I find someone breaking into my house and I AM an old man, I’m going to shoot, and to hell with any “warning.” That burglar wasn’t forced to break in. He made that decision on his own, and should have KNOWN there was the possibility that the homeowner might be armed. It’s HIS OWN fault he got killed. If he hadn’t decided to break into this man’s house (breaking the law) he wouldn’t have been shot. Bravo to the homeowner, who was not named in the report. This family member tried to make the burglar out to be the victim, as usual. He was not. (The Blaze)

By that logic, the burglar should have given the home owner warning that he as to when he was going to break in! It was therefore the burglar's fault!

Works both ways.

Anon: Actually, it's not logical EITHER way. But they don't consider that. They just want to blame others.

It seems there is no logic anywhere these days. A criminal gets hurt committing a crime and it is the victim's fault. Maybe if our system of law would hold criminals accountable and give them stiff sentences we would see less crime.

Very sadly true.
