I have to say there is probably more to the story than what we saw. I know the kid didn't deserve to die, but if he, his friends and his parents had been harassing the old man for long enough he probably felt like there was nothing else to do. Have you ever been harassed? Have you ever called the police just to have them tell you there's nothing they can do? Have you ever seen harassment get worse because you called the poliece and they didn't do anything, further empowering the harasser?
I am in the same situation right now and can tell you it's pretty frustrating to pay a shitload of money to live somewhere where your family will be safe and have the entire experience ruined by some non-productive leach on society who thinks he's a bad *** because he always has 4 or 5 people around him so you're outnumbered.
In the words of Chris Rock:
"I ain't saying he should have killed him.....but I understand."

I feel with you guys, too bad he didnt accidentally shoot the kids leg or something. Atleast teach him a lesson, but not kill him. Im sure it was some piece of **** kid. I hate the damned media, allways taking things one sided.

Although he was definitely wrong in killing him, I can see it happening. Today's youth seem to have no respect for other peoples property. I live on a corner lot and every few months some dick does a lawn job on my lawn. I sure wouldn't kill him but I would like to fill his car with some holes.

slow96 and r0lf should be ashamed of what you guys just said. I dont give a **** what the kid did, under no circumstance should that old man have shot and killed that kid. I dont care if the kid was a piece of ****. He was 15, friggin 15. I did some stupid **** when I was 15. Glad some old man didn't blow me away.

I didnt say good thing he died. I meant, too bad he didnt just get a lesson. Like being shot in the foot/leg. Either way, sad he died. But the media is just portraying it so one sided, as if the kid was an angel.

guns are lethal weapons....you don't shoot a gun with the intent to wound, why do people think you can just "shoot" someone and hurt them. A firearm is a lethal weapon and should never ever but used like a "less then lethal" weapon.... shoot to kill and nothing less.
stop wathing TV people don't get "shot" to teach them a lesson!

I debated...$100 pellet gun or paintball gun. I figured I'd just end up hitting my neighbors house or car so I opted for about $8000 in materials and built a fence.

Anyways, there's a lot of kids out there nowadays that have absolutely NO respect for peoples property. The crap that this kid and his friends were probably doing just leads to bullying and vandalizing other people and their property and a disregard for others. They end up in jail/prison or somebody puts a slug in their head one day while their breaking into someones house. What's worse is the parents apparently felt their childs actions were acceptable.
Did the kid deserve to die...of course not...not yet.
