Burglars have gotten more people killed that just about any other crime. Countless innocent children and spouses have been shot by family members fearful of those entering occupied dwellings. I stand by my comment: I hate burglars with a purple passion: they are in the same category as rapists as they strip people of their sense of security: they violate us in many ways. The only reason I don't support the death penalty for them is that I'm opposed to this due to the imperfection of the system. That being said, If someone shoots and kills a burglar in the act, I congratulate them and celebrate the grand occasion.
