I'll start, give the guy a medal, one less low life........

That is nonsense. If self-defence is accepted he is not guilty of anything.

Spath, your posts are getting sillier by the minute.

Next time i want someone dead, i'll invite them round for tea and claim burglary
unbelievable statement!

[naomi24]

^That was to jackthehat.

Burglars cause misery to millions. They choose to break into homes and take things that don't belong to them. Unfortunately for them sometimes they lose. That man has done society a favour. One less.

just got back from lunch, up to 87 answers already! Ummmm yes I know they have to arrest him but they don't have to charge him for murder without some sort of investigation. Spathi, one stab wound, not "multiple, never had you down as a F0C5, have a day off. That's page one. more to come.....

[Jackdaw33]

This wouldn't happen in the USA. You are perfectly entitled to shoot anyone who breaks into your home, armed or not.

[Voltage]

what is F0C5, ??

[jackthehat]

Friend of Criminal Scum......cleverly using a 5 as the S to disguise it from any autodetect.....

[Jackdaw33]

I think it is Friends of Criminals. Perhaps the 5 is used instead of S as otherwise the word might be starred out as sounding rude.

They might shoot you first, jackdaw. Which I gather happens frequently.

[Voltage]

thx jackdaw

[ummmm]

But TTT, he's been arrested on suspicion, not charged, and is unlikely to be charged with murder.

[naomi24]

Ummmm, according to jackthehat's link he won't be charged.

[Malachite]

In the US if someone breaks into your house with intent, it's legal to shoot them. I sincerely hope the old guy is let off.
