I hate the media. Calling them youngsters and Middle school students. How about calling them what they are? Criminals. Glad the homeowner didn't hesitate.

The dead thugs parents should be investigated.

Tragic, but bravo to the homeowner. I wish him the minimum of anguish over this.

Another example to show my friends why I'm not the crazy one for carrying a gun even when I'm at home.

Isn't Junior High is the same as Middle School, like pop and soda.

Guess the answer would be to state what grade they are actually in!

A case of lethal stupidity. Why would you break into a house into a house that has a person in it that has stated he has a gun? That is beyond dumb. I would like to feel sorry for them and their parents, but for goodness sakes. A man told you he had a gun, and you broke in anyway. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: Now the homeowner has to deal with the mess these dumb dumbs made. :smash: That is who I feel really sorry for.

John B. Hood serves 1381 students in grades 6-8.
At first I thought the suspect's name was John and the article was using Ebonics to describe him.

Because the school system and the media and the government, have taught them that they are entitled to live at the expense of others, they probably assumed that their age would prevent the home owner from shooting them out of fear of prosecution. Or another way to express it may be because they figured he had more to lose than they did.
