Nice. Now sue the ex-boyfriend's family for damage to the door and the cost of the ammo.

Saw this on Twitter yesterday and the comments were hilarious

My favorite was a guy who said, “Had bro doing the stanky leg”….I am still laughing at that one

And yeah, there were the usual back-and-forth from ppl arguing over justification (boring..grand jury decided no charges based on stand-your-ground law)

Chilling? I found it heart-warming!

The ‘jilted beau’ (love the wordsmithing here) was warned repeatedly but busted through the door: the only reasonable interpretation of his actions is that he meant harm to whom were behind that door.

Suicide by dad? Guy didn't look like he was on drugs, but he was definitely acting with purpose.

makes you wonder what would an MA based jury do there, considering the video of the shot in the back. don`t think it would be a similar outcome here.

I would have waited until be breeched the door, face first into my living room.

He’s choice of attire checks out though.

i understand he did, it was seen how his frame made it in after busting the deadbolt, and the first shot was probably done inside - from what can be seen - but the last shot was definitely outside and while perp was fleeing, into the back.

those laws are a lot of fun.

I agree, likely the dad would be in jail right now if this was MA. Sadly.

Glad the dad isn't in Mass, as you're probably right. I see nothing wrong with it. Personally, I feel a coup de grace is warranted in most shootings - but that's definitely a no no.

 

[BBQ.Uncle]

I particularly love the ending where he does “The Dr. Zaius” walk away.

Jail? Sure. Convicted? Wholly different story.

 

[LakeTrout]

I don't know if there is anything chilling about it.

You aren’t welcome. You try to force entry, all rules are out the window in America.

PSG, WSP. After trying
To break down a mans door, I believe he would be justified to empty the magazine in him while he’s bleeding out in the driveway. Don’t like that, don’t try to break into a house you’re not welcome in. The dad deserves a medal for the money he saved and likely the trail of victims he would have left in his wake.

came to say the same thing.

 

[MagGus1820]

Yep, not looking forward to my daughter's reaching dating age. Then you have to deal with all the soy boys everyone is raising. They get 1 girlfriend and think that's it, she's the only one, and because there are so many limp-wristed lady-men today, they are probably right.

 

[Amputee Marksman]

Wait till he breaches the door and one shot with a 12GA and it's over.

 

[TLB]

Grand jury was correct. Daughter's reaction was not surprising, and I see a strained relationship in Dad's future. He'll probably wish he did something a little differently if he hasn't already.

I was kind of wondering about the shot in the back too.

and the nosy neighbor was too.
an interesting part of the story. i just cannot see myself running toward an active shooting scene with screams 'do not shoot me'. would you?

 

[madmas1208]

It only would have been "chilling" if the father wasnt armed. That kid wasnt breaking through the door to have a nice lunch with tea and bisquits.
Thats why every father can relate to this on some level.
I'm going to throw a .45 round at my daughters first boyfriend and tell him "If you F@@k with her thats coming at you a lot faster"...(Yes...I cant take credit for that saying but I do love it)

I don't understand that either.

But I kind of can see the case for charges. He did turn and leave almost immediately after the 1st shot. He was heading for the driveway when the 3rd one hit, so how much danger were they in at that point?

"Hey hun, this new guy seems like an a**h***, remember what happened the last time you dated an a**h***?"

Or

"My dad killed my ex, it was legal though so it's cool"

 

[FalArAk]

I didn't hear anything but the shots and screams.

Was the father just waiting there silently with a gun ready, didn't tell the dude to get off his property or whatever?

A dad defending his daughter from clearly aggressive guy how broke a door for entry--dad maybe ok in MA. One of us single guys protecting our homes and belongings from the exact same threat in MA....not so sure how that would go.

I think if you listen carefully...the father tells him he has a gun and the kid continues to force his way in. Probably a considering factor of why the father wasn't charged.

Ahh thanks, I guess I didn't have the volume cranked up enough.

Never give away your position.

My daughter's first "boyfriend" was a farmer kid who was skinny as a rail. I told my daughter I liked him, because I could bury him with a post hole digger.



"Boyfriend" is in quotes because the "date" consisted of the school dance and saying they were dating. It was 7th grade silliness.

 

[madmas1208]

Don't forget the cost to clean the driveway

Nice. Now sue the ex-boyfriend's family for damage to the door and the cost of the ammo.
