[quote=Chron, Houston and Texas News] The teenage son of a Harris County deputy constable shot a burglar this afternoon who tried to break into their home, authorities said. The boy, 15, and his brother, 12, were alone about 2:45 p.m. when someone tried to kick open the front door then soon after the back door of their home in the 2600 block of Royal Place Court, officials said. Their father was at work at the time, said officials with the Harris County Precinct 1 Constable's Office. When one of the suspected burglars kicked open a window, the boy grabbed a rifle and fired. Both burglars then fled, officials said. Soon after the shooting, a man showed up at Tomball Methodist Hospital with a gunshot wound. He is being questioned by investigators. There was no information about the second suspect, who remains at large, officials said. The children were not injured during the ordeal, officials said. Investigators with the Harris County Sheriff's Department have launched an investigation.[/quote] The kid should go to jail hurr durr :downs: [URL="http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/7086649.html"]SOURCE[/URL]
When we lived in New Jersey, a cop told my grandpa "You have every right to shoot a man breaking into your home, but you make damn sure you drag him back into your house when he tries to get away."
I say he shouldn't. He possibly only did this as a Warning Shot but that's just me :v:

Badass.
The kids shouldn't be in any trouble, I would hope... I would do the same exact thing if someone broke into my house.
good. The kid, most likely won't face any charges.
If anyone breaks into my home, you're fair game to be shot at.
This is a situation where I would be okay with firing a gun at another human being. The kid did the right thing.
Good. I hope the fuck that broke in dies of an infected wound.
Go into someones home without permission, and intend to steal shit you deserve to be shot.
Good job. This is why guns are good. :golfclap:
I've got my BB gun ready for just such an occasion. It's the same kind of BB gun that the kid from A Christmas Story had :v:

Cool kid.
I think he should get psychiatry sessions, that might make you a bit loopy being 15 and shooting a person that tried to break into you home, even though he didnt kill him
[QUOTE=Uberslug;23013995]Burglar season is upon us[/QUOTE] I was waiting for it all year.
Way to go kid.
It's called the "Make My Day" law where you can kill anyone who is forcing their way into your home.
