A North Carolina homeowner found a man in his car, presumably thinking he was attempting to steal it. But the homeowner is the one facing charges.
A 51-year-old man went outside shortly before 3:30 AM this past Tuesday and found a man in his vehicle. We can assume words were exchanged, but the only detail we have about what happened next is that the suspect ran. And that is when the homeowner shot at the fleeing suspect. The suspect was hit, and paramedics took him to the hospital with serious injuries. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
