2 teens killed after allegedly breaking into home;

[Heffay]

You're right. We HAVE heard only one side of the story. It happened to be HIS.

What else do you think we're going to learn here?

How to be sensitive and non-judgmental?

Coming from you, that's funny. Weren't you the one who won't forgive the father of the kid who ended up shooting himself?

Prosecutors said at a December court hearing that Smith had videotape of the teens outside his home before they broke in. They said he also had an audiotape of the killings that recorded Smith telling Brady “You’re dead” as he lay dying. He later taunted Kifer after shooting her several times, calling her “bitch” as he fired a shot beneath her chin and into her cranium, prosecutors said.

He was charged with 1st degree murder? Yet they let him out on bond? Something doesn't smell right!

Or, an I wrong about him being out on bond?

[BRSmith]

He's out. Has been since December, IIRC. Pretty touchy subject around here.

They were worthless thieves. Either he had the right to kill them or he didn't. I don't care much after that.

How does one gain the right to kill someone?

If he shoots then both in the head walking down the stairs this is a non story and nobody gives a ****. He had a right to defend himself, defend him self up to taking the life of another. That's how you get that right.

What he did is totally psychotic and illegal. Hell spend a long time in jail. I just don't care much. Don't wanna get shot? Don't break into people's houses.

The right to defend yourself, vs the right to kill someone would not be considered the same by most people.
But then by the comment:"...If he shoots then both in the head walking down the stairs this is a non story and nobody gives a ****..." I suspect you, fortunately, aren't most people.

[TommyMN]

They legally are in the same context. Like I said. He shoots them walking down the stairs, keeps his yap shut, and he walks. Denying that is denying reality to yourself. I'm glad I'm not like most people. I don't need to kiss criminals asses. You go right ahead thou.

"Has the right to use deadly force"???? Sound better?

Words matter. I see they are going to make a big deal about his choice of derogatory cuss terms. "He used the 'B' word, let's make it a hate crime".

I know from personal experience that word spoken publicly will get you arrested, followed by the judge repeating it over and over in court.

I'm sure they will quibble over that, and not the kill shot he administered.
