This guy stepped over the line...

I'm with you. A shot to the leg or shoulder could kill whil a center of mass shot might just wound. There is no "shoot just to wound" shot. Shoot until the threat is removed.

Well I also think that a shot to the leg, shoulder or anywhere else that is technically not considered fatal, what if it doesn't have the desired effect? What if they're armed? You take a pot shot at their arm and they don't stop- now they injured, angry, and probably going to present an even greater threat... Like said in Bad Boys II:
Mike Lowery: Look, I'm down with your spiritual enlightenment and all that, but I need to know right now some crackhead come rollin' up behind me with a nine you gonna cook that fool.
Marcus Burnett: Of course, shoot him in the leg.
Mike Lowery: Forget that leg shit, man.
Marcus Burnett: Everybody deserves a little dignity.
Mike Lowery: What about my dignity? Your crackhead gonna be missin' a kneecap, I'm gonna be in a body bag.

Bottom line at this point, none of us have a clue what really happened. To bad those kids are dead but there are a lot of bad seeds out there.

I hope I never have to but I would be very much on the offensive if someone broke into my home. My family is very important to me and I would not bother to ask an intruder if they were armed or not.

I would also trust that you would not continue to shoot an intruder after the threat had ended. By his own admission, this guy did that twice, even grabbing another gun after his Mini-14 failed.

Fuck that. Double homicide. He executed those kids. Regardless of their intentions in his home, he fucking murdered them.

Should have used an AR.Damn mini 14s, no wonder there was crapload trades/sold off on here over past few months...

Let it be a warning to all, don't break into other people's houses. It's like posting a pike with a head on it.
