  • Hey, I'm not wrong. I'm just not completely right.

I hate how articles always show these kids as if they are innocent angels, every time something like this happens.

Went back and looked at the OP article again. Full of pics of smiling children, and weeping friends and family. And a mug shot of the accused. Looks like a total railroad job.
Here at Intel we make processors on 12 inch wafers. And, the individual processors on the wafers are called die. And, I am employed to check these die. That is why I am the DieChecker.

The guy should be in jail just like the kids should have been.

I explained myself already. You're just asking questions twice now. Yes, it's the kids' dumb fault for making this all possible in the first place.
I was commenting on your comment.  And how would I ask 'twice' when I had only commented quite a few pages back?

One thing I have not seen brought up here is how do they know this was a case of burglary and not a home invasion?  How do we know these kids weren't going to torture this guy and take his stuff or worse?  He must've been known as an easy target due to the past incidents, right?  Why not have some fun?

Even though the bath salts craze kind of died down, I'm not taking any chance or waiting a few minutes to find out someone's intentions.  It takes total desperation/fiendish insanity to walk up to someone else's property and say, "I'm going inside uninvited and getting what I want, regardless of the consequences or who I hurt or worse".  Put yourself into that mindset and then you'll know what you're dealing with...

Because only a few pages back or less I was asked the same similar questions about the same things. Was just pointing out that I was repeating myself and you possibly didn't notice due to thread skimming. No biggie...

This is what I meant in my OP: if you break into someone else's property you risk anything happening to you! This could be an attack by pitbulls; the homeowner having a heart attack and you get charged with murder; through to being held hostage, tortured and abused for hours, days, weeks.

Something else that can happen to you when you break into someone else's property with the intention of stealing their stuff.

Man that dudes eyes are jacked up. Maybe he'll decide to get a job next time he needs something he doesn't have.
