I dodged a bullet, literally, at LSU one night in a similar scenario
A guy I know moved into a house in southdowns and went out and got shitfaced that night at the bar. Ended up at the house next door and when his key didn’t work he tried to break into the door. Problem was that door was to a nursery and he got shot in the stomach. He was in the hospital for a while but lived

You think it was the right decision to go out there to confront him?
If someone was trying to gain entry into my home and then I find them in my shop/garage, yes, I am going to confront them.
This goes back to the backbone/pussy thing from earlier.

You have to be sure your eyes have adjusted to the dark before going out. The other party has been out in the dark and so his vision will have already adjusted.

“We’re going to keep pressure on authorities to release the man’s name because if he did nothing wrong, there’s no need to protect him. There’s no need to shield his name,” Clemons said.
At this point, Clemons said the family is just hoping to find some answers in this tragedy.
That is so much bullshite right there.

“He was a good young man, 21-year-old young black man. He was a student at McNeese. A member of a fraternity. No criminal record whatsoever, just a good gentle soul and he didn’t deserve to die this way,” Clemons said.
Most people don't deserve to die the way they do, whatever that is. Depending on your perspective, you could make the case that everyone on this planet deserves much worse than we get.
But it is sad that a 21 year old lost his life. Sadder still that the reason is his own foolish behavior and bad (impaired as well) choices.

mine happened at Chuck's, we had a TGIF at the frat house with a sorority that spilled over to Chuck's, I had to piss and felt like I might have to puke, tiny bathroom was full so I went outside, middle of nowhere, right? unbeknownst to me the owner(Chuck?) lived in a trailer immediately behind the bar, it was literally less than twenty feet from the back wall(must have had the utilities tied in with the bar,) anyway, I was pretty trashed, taking a whiz, contemplating barfing and I hear the dreaded sound of a revolver being cocked, I looked up and it was 2" from my nose, guys asked wtf I was doing out there and I told him, he gave me a good arse chewing and told me never to come back behind the building again, that's where he lived, I yes sirred and apologized profusely, oddly enough that sobered me up, I rallied and went back in a resumed partying

A drunk college kid was trying to get into a house late at night. The homeowner heard it and went outside with a gun and told the kid to leave. The kid started advancing toward the owner so the owner fired a shot into the ground as a warning. The kid still kept advancing so the owner out of fear shot the kid. People say the kid was so drunk that he was confused and went to the wrong house.
This happened years ago around BR with a young Asian man during Halloween.

Do you normally shoot people who walk onto your property who are non-threatening?
The homeowner doesn’t know that (technically, we don’t even know that right now). The law is based on the reasonable perception of the homeowner at the time of the action. Someone trying to gain entry into your home at 1:00 in the morning is going to always be reasonably perceived as threatening.

My advice, get the frick over it.

Are you the poster who said you should just tackle someone who broke into your house instead of shooting them?

Yall can do what you want. For my sanity, I’m not shooting a young man in swim trunks to death for being in my backyard. If he attacks me, it becomes a judgment call. I’m glad we have laws that recognize our natural right to defend ourselves, but people seem too eager to kill each other these days. Downvote away.
I saw an article about a woman who called the cops on a black man because he went through their back yard and towards where her child was playing. The boyfriend or husband was at work. Of course some think she did the rt thing others think it’s racists.
I think if a strange man is on your property approaching your child, you may have a different feeling.

I'm going to invent something to allow us to overcome darkness. Not sure what I'll call it yet.

A couple of points:
1. Homeowner should not have gone outside, call police then wait inside. 1A if he attempts to gain entry - shoot.
2. In LA you do not have to wait for them to actually break in.
3. Never fire a warning shot. PERIOD.
4. last year a neighbor of mine had a drunk/drugged 22 ish year old guy trying to get in his front door at 2 am.. THey called police substation is 2.1 miles away - 42 minutes until they arrived.
5. Every state needs a law that prevents trespassers from suing.
