In South Carolina, an alleged burglar, who broke a window and tried to enter a Greenville County home, was shot by the armed homeowner. Police documents say the suspect was armed with a knife and threatened the lives of the people in the home before one of them shot in self-defense. The trespasser, who was charged with burglary and related crimes, is reported to have been released from jail on parole several weeks before the incident |

The Armed Citizen® Extra
Early one Saturday night, three men attempted to burglarize a house in Southeast Albuquerque, N.M. Unfortunately for them, one of the residents stopped them before they could do any damage. When the men held the resident’s grandmother at gunpoint, he immediately shot at them, hitting one. All three intruders fled the scene, two on foot and the other by car. The wounded burglar was eventually taken to a hospital, where he died, while the one who fled by car was caught by police and later charged with aggravated burglary, conspiracy and tampering with evidence. The third burglar was still on the run as of press time. (Albuquerque Journal, Albuquerque, NM, 2/16/18)
Where is the felony murder charge??? |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
