A home invasion in Graves County has homeowners wondering what their rights are when protecting their homes.
Kentucky State Police investigators say a homeowner shot and killed 46-year-old Timothy Roper, who is accused of breaking into the home with two other people, beating and robbing the elderly homeowner.
The neighborhood where it happened is in Boaz, Kentucky. Lawrence Bermingham lives across from where the home off of McNeil Lane. He said the neighborhood used to be a peaceful place, which is why he moved there to retire. The neighborhood is shocked by the news of the break-in. |

"The break-in has multiple neighbors concerned about their safety and wondering what their rights are in protecting their homes."
The fact that there are Americans who are so naïve that they have to ask this question is disgusting.
“To be honest with you, I keep a gun by my night stand, and I plan to keep myself protected,” Bermingham said.
Which is good when you're in bed. You should keep it on your person, ready to go, ALL THE TIME. |

TO REMEMBER |
| There are other things so clearly out of the power of Congress, that the bare recital of them is sufficient, I mean the "...rights of bearing arms for defence, or for killing game..." These things seem to have been inserted among their objections, merely to induce the ignorant to believe that Congress would have a power over such objects and to infer from their being refused a place in the Constitution, their intention to exercise that power to the oppression of the people. —ALEXANDER WHITE (1787) |
