We've all had patooty fever at one point or another right?

But we all didn't do this kind of stupid $#!+ .... amirite?

I like it.

When the kid physically broke through the door…he made the shoot acceptable. What he really needed was just a good azz-whoopin.

Some boys get it bad.

Some girls give it to them, too.

Dad gets the final say what is ok under his roof, as it should be.

Had a similar situation but thankfully the sheriff got the lad before he went too far.

Not a proponent of shooting someone in the back. That could be interpreted wrong. Fortunately he had the video showing the whole story.

"walks a short distance before collapsing in the middle of a sun-dappled pathway."

sun-dappled, got us a dang writer on our hands....

Good shoot per state law.
Dumbazz trying to break down in, lost his mind over some poontang....

People inside dont know if he had a gun on him or not.

Had a similar situation years ago at 2:30 AM with our daughter. I had my pistol in his face, directing him to get his ass out. He complied and didn’t come back. He’s alive today because of that. Probably the last intelligent thing he’s done.

Dad protected his family. Well done.

Looked like a good shoot to me.

Good thing the kid is white, otherwise the dad would be in cuffs and Al Sharpton would be in his front yard with the press.

The boy had that look in his eyes, he was definitely not of sound mind at the moment.

I had a young man fighting with my stepdaughter. Hollering and screaming. I went out and told him to leave. He said no. He was wrong. Didn’t even hurt the pup but he was gone. Edk

I like the remark, Very few people get to choose when and how they die. He chose poorly.

What happened to the good ole days of just holding a boombox over your head blasting some Peter Gabriel to win her back....

I'll bet he doesn't do that again!

I’ve always heard “stop the threat” so once he turned and ran the shooting out to have stopped.

As has been said, looks as tho the kid needed a serious ass whoopin but chose the way of extreme pain.

Sad for all involved. Whether a man has it coming or not it can’t be easy knowing you’ve taken a life.

Losing your son over such a sophomoric and stupid thing has to be more painful than I can imagine. I can understand the family questioning that shoot given the hit yo the back was fatal.

A young (& foolish) man dies.
A father killed someone.
No one wins.
