Oh Great another mouthy dick on NSC. He's 78 which bit of that is hard to grasp? They broke into his house. Jog on and annoy someone else eh...

A perfectly reasonable question, to which you have responded with abuse.

Yep I have and? He Seventy Eight, 78, two years off 80 which bit do you both struggle with?...
You can of course have a contrary opinion, but I will settle for my old fashioned judgemental one that if you break into a pensioners house then I have no sympathy for you whatsoever.
If you don't like it I'm struggling to give a **** to be honest...

I'm saying you are being judgemental without knowing all the facts. I couldn't care less about your opinion on it.
I do care about you calling other posters mouthy dicks.

Of course not, but that won’t stop people going nuts over this.
This.
The legal process must be followed and at this stage it catches the headlines.
No jury will ever convict this old man of murder.

Even the Tony Martin case had to prove beyond reasonable doubt, the kids were running away and he shot them in the back. The burglary victims have all my sympathy.

The problem is at his age this might kill him. Then maybe we can do the other guy for manslaughter?
I hope nothing happens to the old man. He's the victim in this.

I'm sure Junior will be touched.
PS The old boy was 78 I could care less if he shot him with a howitzer.

So all that has happened is that he is in custody answering police questions? It's hardly the world going to the dogs is it. Sounds like a bog standard move by the police in a potential (but seemingly unlikely) murder case whilst they get to the bottom of what went on.
What else would people expect the police to do in this situation?

Not sure what folk are fretting about.
Standard investigation.
The law in this country is pretty good in this area (despite what people like/are taught to think).
No-one has the full facts- but I'm confident that if it was merely self-defence it won't go any further.

If someone breaks into your house they should be fair game, self defence or not.

Kind of. Folk who use force to deal with burglars rarely get in ultimate trouble. But I'm not sure that a blank canvass should be offered to the homeowner.

Good on the old man, hope he's back home and feeling safe as soon as possible.
Want to break into, invade and steal from someone else's property, you've got to be prepared to face any consequence.
