he wasn't defending anything when he shot the guy as he was running away. He was attacking.

that's my point.

If the farmer had probable cause to believe his life was in danger and shot the guy IN SELF DEFENCE, then okay. all the power to him.

of course people should be able to defend themselves, however, this story reinforces my belief that people should not be allowed to carry guns because of the stupid things they do with them.


lol grieves.
