Home invasion a capital crime
SUNNYSIDE (Monday, 12-7-98)---Two Washington homes have been invaded and occupants assaulted recently.
 
One occurance was in Olympia, the other in the county near Sunnyside. A terrible one took place in Granger a few years ago.
 
In Olympia, a thug broke into a family's house in the wee hours of the morning, and was shot to death for his intrusion. It was ruled a justifiable homicide. It was capital punishment delivered honorably and directly in the face of evil.
 
Since Olympia is generally a testosterone starved, left-wing area, a snowstorm of letters soon appeared in the Daily Olympian that underscored the belief that we no longer have the right to self-defense or self-preservation.
 
The resident of the Olympia home, however, shot the intruder. The call was clear cut. When anyone invades your home, you've got a God-given right to defend it, your family and yourself.
 
Hesitation on your part as a home defender--caused partially by propaganda from a swarm of leftist louts who blame the defender and praise the criminal--could cost you your life. Ignore these miscreants.
 
Defend your home and family without hesitation. In Thurston County, the prosecutor agreed with this philosophy--he said the man defending his home, his wife, and his children committed a justifiable homicide.
 
In Sunnyside, thugs broke into a Midvale Road home recently and beat up a 14-year old white girl. Investigating sheriff's deputies have no leads as to who they are. They apparently are not treating the crime as a potentially capital crime, which it is.
 
In addition, witness the gang initiation several years ago in Granger, when two 14-year-old animals invaded the Skeleton family home and tortured and killed a wheelchair-bound man, his wife, and two boys.
 
If you believe Clintonista gun-control propaganda--which is rife now in this country--you would conclude that the Olympia man, the Sunnyside girl's family, and the Skeleton family had no right to defend themselves. They should just "let it happen", and let investigative officers file a paper report while family blood is being washed out of the carpets.
 
We don't think so.
 
The next time a gang member or that ilk decides to enter your home unbidden, you should be ready to drop him on the spot. Know your rights as well as your responsibilities.
 
As it is happening to you, you will not have time to call the cops, and they will not have time to get to you. The only alternative is to prepare to drop violent home invaders where they stand. --LA
