She says, 'Don't shoot me, I'm pregnant -- I'm going to have a baby,'" the man, who was identified as Tom Greer, told the TV station. He said he fired two rounds and that a man who was with her fled the scene. "I shot her twice. She best be dead," Greer said. While I'm sure the law won't support this, I say good shot. Fuck thieves. |

Unarmed and pregnant?
Probably legally justified, but pretty fucked up regardless. Read the article, the homeowner is at the bare minimum going to get assraped in a civil suit. Good shoot. |

If she really cared about the babies future she would be robbing people.

This is why I like grumpy old people. They don't give a damn.

If you are pregnant, you have to know the risks you are putting your baby at by breaking into an occupied home. Those risks came to fruition. If you want to blame someone, blame the dead mom. She killed her baby, not the home owner. |

With junkie robbers as parents, was the kid going to become a model citizen?

He should have either said nothing or stated they were trying to kill me and I defended myself. |

I don't see this going well for the 80 y/o in LA County. He will not make a good impression on the stand if it goes to trial.
Vol Manslaughter, no jail time? |

Even if it's patently obvious there's no grey area. |

Things to avoid while pregnant:
-Smoking -Drinking more than the occasional glass of wine -Drugs without specific advice from a physician -Armed robbery -Excessively strenuous exercise -Fasting There's a few more but that covers most of it. |

He should have kept his mouth shut. Possibly talked himself into jail.

View Quote "I shot her twice. She best be dead," Greer said. While I agree that it was a good shoot, this guy needs to stop talking to reporters and the police. He may say something he's going to regret later. |

I'll leave my personal feelings out of this.
Two points: This is an object lesson in keeping your mouth shut after a self defense shooting. How could he know she was really pregnant, not just trying to escape the consequences of her actions? Not trying to be a wiseass here, but I was taught the rule that you never ask a woman with a BIG belly, "When is the baby due?", unless you can see the kids head coming out. The risks far out weigh the rewards in inquiring. edit for grammar corrections. 2nd edit for proof of 2nd point (Shit! you can't make this stuff up!) http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1648002_This_PC__hit_has_gone_far_enough__4_YO_kid_permanently_86_d_from_donut_shop_.html Quote from the above link for TLDR crowd: "Denham said her son, Justin Otero, asked a woman at the doughnut shop if she had a baby in her belly." |

She SAID she was pregnant, no idea if she was showing, could have been her trying to get the upper hand. Guy is 80, injured, rushed facing 2 attackers, I see no issue with him shooting.
|

Sucks about the unborn kid, but fuck the trashy bitch. Too bad he wasn't able to get the guy that was with her.

I fully support this man defending himself from violent criminals.
Were the police there to defend him? Nope, not when fresh donuts are on sale or there are newpaper delivery folks to shoot. How is the state supposed to raise taxes and show how needed they are if guys like him take the law into their own hands? He is now on the state's 10 most dangerous list. |

View Quote I don't see how. They were in his home, and physically attacked him. Don't get much more good shoot than that. If they find the other guy, nail him with two counts of felony murder.

Her fault for robbing people while pregnant. If anything SHE killed her own baby.

IF, you're ever involved in a shooting....LAWYER UP. Aloha, Mark |
