He never ran towards her it's a hate crime she needs to be in jail it's the same as the abury case

Patriot VW says:

He was warned, yup

Austin Yates says:

We want the castle law , rights as a homeowner or renter to protect our property by lethal force, and bring back the death penalty to Minnesota .

Dead People's Things says:

I wish a lot more citizens of Minneapolis and Saint Paul would take out the trash.

Thomas Murphy says:

Gold medals to both. Minnesota needs laws that allows people to protect themselves and their property.

S Brannon says:

And these same homeowners 100% voted for gun hating democrats , but now I’m sure they “woke” up and now believe in arming yourself …
Stupid liberal voters are hypocritical .
Cmon democrats tell me I’m wrong ..

lykao jalao says:

The light comes out should give this guy a hint to take the hike
The warning shots should tell him that the owner is serious
Dude really messed up

Fadumo Hassan says:

I don’t understand why they even took this people to court he clearly came to their house if you need shelter doesn’t mean go to random house crazy

Holly Dugal says:

Don’t break into people’s homes or trespass onto people’s properties. She had a right to defend her family and home. I’m done with folks who coddle criminals and punish the victims. I hope this will set precedent for future home invasions. The laws need to change to protect the home owners from these harden violent criminals.

brandon kresal says:

Actually the " warning shots " are in fact reckless discharge of a firearm within city limits and is a felony crime in which she should have still been charged with no matter what… No excuse for shooting in the air like a stupid fμ©×ing pos idiot. Learn how to properly handle your firearms or don't have them . She could have easily killed some kid sleeping in their bed blocks away. She didn't even fire it strait up in the air which is dangerous enough as it is. She should go to jail for that alone . My mom lives very close to where she was shooting those warning shots so I am not very happy about this if you can imagine.

Chad Sheridan says:

The homeowners where black.

If they where white , jail.

Choose Jesus says:

We all have a God given right to defend ourselves from wicked people that want to hurt us and our families.

craig nelson says:

Where's Ray Crump & Al Sharpton? No huge protests and memorial being erected at the site?

Darren Bates says:

I would have done the same thing as this homeowner here in California, except no warning shots. That is a very stupid and rookie thing to do as those rounds will land somewhere…

Akow says:

that's funny, . They chose to open the door and start shooting while he was in the storage shed, they weren't in any danger. but Hey you get away with murder lol Now let's see that old white man that shot a young black man in his yard be released

N.E. MPLS says:

Shelter my ass!

Night Watchman 58 says:

He was only looking for shelter. Go to the Mayors house then. Nowhere did I see a sign saying Homeless Shelter.

Sheldon Danielak says:

Wreckless discharge, warning shots are just a charge so don't be stupid.

Kay Jay says:

Ring cameras are incredible

Roy Munson says:

Only clowns fire warning shots in the middle of town.

Ben Vasilinda says:

They must live in a liberal area where criminals have more rig that than home owners do. I bet his family tries to sue them as well.

Derek Carstensen says:

👍👍👍👍👍
