AZ rancher protecting life & property charged for shooting illegal

[Krichardson]

I wonder if the illegal would have been charged for murder and denied bail. I'm sure the answer would be no.

Great point.

Does this mean that you've started watching it?

It does. Mrs. Walleye was bellyaching about how she wanted to watch this and that on Peacock so I got her credit card and signed up. I'm thoroughly enjoying the show but it seems like she likes it even more than I do. We're up to season 4 now and I think we're going to be out of shows to watch shortly. That's gonna suck. I can see what you guys were raving about.

I am still missing something here and now people are neg-repping me for questioning why this became a race story. But can someone tell me what happened to provoke the shooting and if it was defensible or not? While this article is very detailed playing the border plight it is extremely vague about what happened. Was the illegal threatening him or trying to break into his house or was the homeowner just shooting random trespassers on sight.

The article is also vague or intentionally misleading on the Arizona law. Can you shoot and kill trespassers there for just walking on your land?

Really surprised that there have not been a lot more shootings at the immigrants,Maybe just the start of not taking any more B S !

I'm willing to bet that there are quite a few that flies under the newsmedia's radar.
