[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 714412, member: 944"] I think we are saying exactly the same thing....even if it give them the benefit of the doubt, it doesn't look good from that video. I am wondering who shot the video and why we could hear no voices....all I am saying is a full investigation is warranted. Nevertheless, even if he was a serial burglar and was caught in the act, I am not comfortable with vigilante justice either.... My opinion *could* change if there were repeated warnings shouted at the young man, and if he refused to stop or comply with their warnings. I am still not sure that justifies their actions, but it makes it somewhat less egregious in my view if a person knowingly takes actions which put themselves at risk. If they shouted warnings to him, he could have stopped and let the police arrive to sort everything out. As I said, I don't like it, and might still be inclined towards some level of charge even in that circumstance, but it moves from murder to something less if they really were much more reasonable than that video showed.
