FL gas station owner shoots thief, charged with attempted murder

So many ways to spin this one. I don’t know which side I am on. It’s just beer, and I don’t think the man should have died with this case (no pun intended, I don’t think).

Still, you play a stupid game, you get a stupid prize. The guy died doing something he shouldn’t have been. Yes, I am on the side of the law but stealing is against the law and one has the right to protect his. Tough situation.

I'm a straight up law and order man. I carry concealed for protection, and have weapons at home for protection of life and property. But I really don't want to take a human life unless I really have to. I want to avoid shooting anyone, if at all possible.

Take a life because he's running off with my beer? You gotta be kidding.

I have zero sympathy for the dead thief. I have been the victim twice in my life. The first time I was 8 and the second was 7 years ago. I can only dream that somewhere these scumbags that stole from me got what they deserved.

This reminds me of that article someone posted that was written by a defense lawyer. Basically the main theme was the only reason to use a gun on someone is if your life or your love ones life is endangered. That I understand. On the other hand if they break in your home when you are there then I will assume they mean to do harm. Stealing something from my workshop might make me mad but I will not shoot.
I just pray I will not ever be in that situation to have to. I don't want to take a life, it is the greatest gift of them all.
