... “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. |

A thug with a multi-million $$$ contract is just a well-paid thug. |

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) |
