November 24, 200421 yr http://www.nj.com/news/times/index.ssf?/ba...00841253400.xml Can't rape someone if you've been squashed by an SUV huh?
November 24, 200421 yr As much as I love a good criminal loses in the end, if one of those bullets hit, we'd be reading about two orphan girls whose dad was killed chasing armed robbers.
November 24, 200421 yr I have to agree with Tex. It's stupid to chase after someone when you are apparently unarmed and they have a gun. Ohh well everything worked out in the end...
November 24, 200421 yr Self defense?? Didn't the guy get into his truck and go after the robbers? When they started shooting, it was self defense.
November 24, 200421 yr When they started shooting, it was self defense. The guy shouldn't be charged with any crimes if the report is accurate. The only way to build a case would be to say he should have stopped when they started shooting and by continuing etc. But that would be very lame and no jury in North America would confict. Still, I am thankfull he is alive to raise his daughters instead of a victim of robbery and murder. When will the criminals begin saying they shot in self defense.

November 29, 200421 yr When they started shooting, it was self defense. I see your point, but the law is tricky sometimes. They put a gun to his head, robbed him and left. I can see an attorney saying that it could have ended right there. He got in his car and gave chase, that is not defending himself. They shot at him and he ran the guy over and killed him.
November 29, 200421 yr Self defense?? Didn't the guy get into his truck and go after the robbers? You'd make a wonderful lawyer
November 29, 200421 yr You'd make a wonderful lawyer cash money says the hero Dad gets charged with something.

At some point someone will make the point that this crazy crime victim was chasing them and they feared for their lives and started shooting to get him to stop. In other words, the robbers will claim self defense in shooting at some crazed guy trying to run them over.
