look people.....if this guy was so in fear of his life, he would have stayed his ass inside the house-period, end of story. did you hear the first 911 call? he was itchin to get out there and shoot somebody. i don't necessarily think that those two robbers needed to be alive, but it was in no way Joe Horn's responsibilty to kill them, or even a decision he had to make. The cops were on their way, he could've done his civic duty by just staying on the phone with the 911 operater and giving the police all the details so they could catch them. He is soooooo lucky that they only had crowbars because he could've easily been shot if they had guns. Last time I checked it's hard to kill two people with one shot. He would've been shot long before he got off his second shot. Too many people in America want to shoot first. I do agree with the right to bear arms and the right to protect myself, but this guy wasn't protecting himself. He put himself in harms way by going outside. He was specifically told by the 911 operator to stay in the house. No possesion is worth dying over.
