    Hmmmmmm
    The burglars grabbed some money that was laying around the living room.
    I find that statement rather interesting. Can't speak for everyone else but there is never any money laying around my living room, (or anywhere else for that matter):huh:

    Why did the home owner shoot after chasing them? That is a big NO-NO. Once the threat has stopped you need to stop. Sounds like a bad choice to me. And why was money "laying around the living room"? Something smells fishy with this one.
    Be safe, shoot straight and have fun!!

    This incident brings to mind the scene in the movie "Boogie Nights" when the guys ripped off, then tried to rob the rich dude and he came out shooting a shotgun yelling "Take that puppies!"

    +1 for Glock Man. Chasing someone with a gun is not something we should be doing.

    2 dead bad guys in the living room would have been a better ending. Crime as a profession should be extremely dangerous.
