... “believed to be breaking into the apartment of an estranged acquaintance (but) in advertently broke into the wrong apartment.”
Even if Dejean-Jones had picked the "right" apartment, the occupant would have been justified in shooting him dead.
When one violently and unlawfully enters an abode, one risks his or her life. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
