    Everyone should have blue clips and red clips for their guns, use the blue one for warning shots.

    Average response time to a priority 1 call (ie you are being murdered) in Edmonton is 7 minutes.

If someone breaks into a home while residents are there, all bets are off as you do not know their intentions, what weapons they have, their state of mind, or what substances they have consumed. They have the element of surprise that the homeowner does not have.

    Agree w/ spikers 100%

    We do have the right to defend our homes against deadly force.

    What we dont have is the right to fire warning shots or even point a firearm at somone without a deadly weapon.

    Theres a go fund me for Eddie trying to raise another $50k for his lawyers. If masked bandit is correct that his insurance should cover it then hes in for a pay day as well as the thief.

    Something pretty sobering that happened outside of my place a few weeks ago. ERT was searching for a guy for over 30 minutes in a 2 block radius before they found him holed up in my neighbors yard. 30 minutes, when they were already right there and that’s CPS best of the best. He could have just as easily decided that the inside of my house was a good place to hide (they found him 15 feet from my back door), presuming he was armed since it was an ERT unit that took him down.

    My point, bad shit could be going down for a long time before CPS finds your bodies.

    But at the same time, look at the lost income already, stress, travel costs, daycare costs, shit just parking downtown as I'm sure it's not in okotoks court this time around.

    Pretty damn sure even if the lawyer's covered (and that assumes he has insurance) he's still in the hole for thousands.

    didnt he raise a massive amount in the first go fund me? The guy should have more then enough left from that one being that his charges were dropped. If he reaches his goal on this fund raiser he'll have made a decent amount.

    And then you grab the blue when you really need the red and look like a fool since you've now got a useless gun in your hand. I'd never keep blanks or snap caps in a magazine that I might accidentally grab under stress.

    Obviously I don't know his finances, can't speak to that, though I do believe he did donate a bunch to one of the local charities after it was all over.

    Who was the member who had to deal with catching trash like this breaking into his house and chase them out? I would enjoy his perspective on all our thoughts, he has the most direct experience.

    Now I'm curious; if I shot at a violent & armed intruder in my home, missed, and killed an innocent person outside, what kind of trouble would I be in?
    If the intruder had a weapon and threatened to use it, you would probably get sympathy. But like a ricochet, if you actually miss your target (kneecap or dead-center chest of intruder) that would go against you as being unskilled/untrained in weapon of use.

    I mean really, if you drive over the curb with a car and smush anyones foot (bad guy, good guy, or both) they will blame you for it. If you miss with a gunshot, you must take extra responsibility for incompetence. If you do not do a ricochet, and hit your target dead center knee, head or chest (and have some sort of prior proof that you are proficient and skilled at firearms), then that is best type of scenario - but it still can get you a small penalty in Canada.

    If this scenario is what I think it is: Some guy rummaging through garbage without a weapon or a threat, and the shot missed - it is literally the worst scenario for the homeowner. You wouldn't even be able to claim "warning shot" because if you fire up in the air, there is no way that a deflection could cause a hit (unless you had a metal bucket above your head)

    It's not me you are thinking of here, it was that other guy in Barspaw I believe.

    But, I have had that happen to me twice, once at my house, and again at my Dad's house. One, I chased out and the cops were able to pick her up a few blocks away with her boyfriend who did have weapons in the car. The second one I had him trapped in the basement and tuned him up a bit until the cops got there.

    Your honour I just walked into his house for a cup of sugar and he beat me mercilessly.

    Leaving them alive means nothing but trouble.

    I dont know much about the laws and how the legal system works, but cant Eddie counter sue for the lawyer fees, time off work, stress etc. after possibly winning this trial?
    As i take it since we dont have the Castle Law in Canada, the only way and reason to point a gun or shoot a warning shot in a house robbery is if they had a deadly weapon?
    Would the item they used to break the lock or whatever already be considered as weapon since it would be in their hand?
    I have so many questions LOL its just so crazy that this is all happening and all he was doing was protecting his belongings and family in his home

    The thief didnt have the police lay charges so Eddie's beef would be with the prosecutors and the police. Eddie didnt win at trial the charges were dropped.

    In the end gun owners know if they shoot at someone or end up shooting someone that there will most likely be issues with the police to deal with.

    All of us gun owners get to choose if it's worth our time or not. Eddie seemed to think shooting at a thief over change was worth all the hassle hes had to deal with.

    Its wrong to assume deadly intent. Its even mostly unlikely to even assume "threat". Many times you might just find out that a person is having a really rough time and is simply looking for an abandoned shelter for the night. Door to door panhandling/begging is not unheard of although they usually tend to go to churches instead of residences for the obvious reason that it may be mistaken.

    It is one of the few regrets in my life that when a younger women showed up at my door saying "she had nowhere to go and did not know what to do" on a colder winter night that I did not immediately take her in - or take the personal hit and get a cab so that she could make it to a shelter.

    Now Omar, that was deadly intent - the soldier flew halfway around the world. Was literally coming to the door with a loaded weapon. And then rang the doorbell. *That* is defending a home/family.
