After police notified relatives of Pipkins' death, some showed up at the house. They were upset, and questioned the homeowner's actions.

"He could have used a warning," Lakesha Thompson, Pipkins' sister-in-law, said. "He could have let him know that he did have a gun on his property and he would use it in self-defense."

No wrong! The home owner does not have to do anything besides protect his castle. Maybe he shouldn't be breaking into peoples' homes. I love happy endings.

Showed up to his house? Lucky they weren't shot too.

Way to go!

Given him a warning? Yeah, my flashlight/laser combo is my warning, then your brains are painted on my walls. Good job man!

Home owner should have used a whistle. I am sure that would have stopped the guy coming through the window.

Maybe he should have vomited or pissed his pants to avoid being assaulted. Stupid people deserve what they get.

He should now sue Lakesha and the rest of this guys family for the clean up costs to his home. "Should have given a warning"....lmao. One scumbag dead one good guy left alive. Simple math to me. I like Happy stories to start my day off.

Since ammo became so expensive, no one can afford a warning shot any longer.

Parent's / Friends comments = what's wrong with the US.

While I would've been devastated if one of my kids were shot breaking and entering, I also would've been totally understanding of why the old guy did what he had to do...it's called personal responsibility.

If you give up your personal responsibility to break into my home, I will use mine to defend it.

I also like how the story says the old man didn't need 45 shots to take the bastard out, spraying half the neighborhood.

He did give a warning...it called closing his door.

Pipkins had a lengthy criminal record. He served time in prison and was convicted of theft, possession of a Controlled Substance and criminal trespassing.

That's hilarious. It's not his house, he wasn't invited in... if it was instead a german shepherd that clamped down on his nuts, the family would be crying that the home owner should have had a sign on the door "Don't break into this house or a dog will take your balls."

he gave up all his rights to a warning shot the minute he chose the house to break into and probably murder, beat and rob who ever was inside

"Pipkins had a lengthy criminal record. He served time in prison and was convicted of theft, possession of a Controlled Substance and criminal trespassing."

Sounds like taking out the trash to me. Dude should sue the family and get back the cost of the ammo he used plus damages.

Except for the part where he has to appear in front of a grand jury to determine if he acted in self defense.

Good to go !

If anything ever fell off my truck in Oak Cliff, I wouldn't go back for it.

It's not the neighborhood you want to be in.
