It would be difficult to not do the same under the same circumstances.
The way it should be. Caught the guy in the act, man defending his daughter. Not even a question there.
This story just has to make you smile.
They just say he hit him over the head. But do not say with what.
Whatever it was worked.
Also: Give that man a case of "Shiner Blonde" on the town. I'll drink to that.
Oh come on now! That father should have to stand trial for defending himself and his family to make sure he was justified in killing this despicable human being. Are we sure he can invoke "stand your ground" here? ::)
(Sorry, I started channeling a certain couple of posters when I first heard this on KRMG driving in this morning).

Recreational/entertainment purposes, then...
Joe Kelley's show is just fine. Easy way to get the local news and figure out where the asshats have crashed which might affect my route to work.

I wouldn't be opposed to having a trial. There may be some information that the media failed to disclose in their coverage. A man was killed and all we have is one side of the story.
From the information I read on one link, I wouldn't blame the father one bit for his actions.
One story said it took place in the barn. And the other said that it took place in the house.
That is why I was questioning what he hit him in the head with.
Kudos either way.

Why is any of that our business in the first place?

It's that whole "living vicariously through others" aspect of human nature.

We sit around at work talking about what we will do when we win the lottery...I'm gonna park it in a non-interest bearing account and just spend a few hundred thousand a year and never have to worry about paying income taxes EVER again!!! Well, after that one time...

Where is your civic spirit? You should be required by law to invest that money in interest bearing accounts so you can help support the less fortunate by paying income tax each year. Once is NOT enough.

Like the other richest ones in the world, I would try to get some of it out of the country so could go visit other countries without any unwarranted government intrusion.
