Thank goodness your dad is physically OK. Back in May of '91 one of my best friends in high school lost his dad to kick burglars in Houston. The shooter's gun "accidently" went off and happened to strike my buddy's dad in the head. The cops caught the guy not long after and he was convicted and his date with death was set. I think he's been on death row for over ten years now. He was scheduled to pay his debt in full last spring, but on the afternoon of his scheduled execution, the Fifth circuit decided that since his mental capacity had never been brought up during his trial, he should get another stay, and be examined. He's still ripping off the taxpayers of Texas. I hope your father is able to overcome the emotional damage that these worthless scumbags have created.
