Another Instance of the “How Dare You Live Without Me” Attitude

That attitude never works out. Video shows Ohio man shoot daughter's ex during break-in

And relatives of dead people never like self-defense. Also, self-defense is legal in Ohio.

The key part of the story is that he was the "ex-boyfriend." He apparently had a problem with that, because he showed up at the family home of his ex-girlfriend and broke in. It was a bad decision.

The door is eventually forced open and three gunshots ring out, sending Rayl fleeing, the clip shows.

The 22-year-old makes his way down the porch steps and walks a short distance before collapsing in the middle of a sun-dappled pathway.

He was told to go away. He was told that one person inside the home was armed. He disregarded all of that and broke the door open. What did he think was going to happen?

“Dad, is he trying to kill me?” the woman could be heard saying.

After Duckro shoots at Rayl, his daughter is heard telling him, “Dad, there’s nothing you could have done. You saved my life,” according to the station.

Ohio has a Stand Your Ground law, which encompasses the Castle Doctrine. A grand jury refused to return an indictment of the father under those circumstances.

As for the relatives of the dead guy, they are upset because the fatal shot hit him in the back, but we can't see if the view was obstructed. The family is "demanding justice," but given the lack of narrative-support, this will not be a national story with riots and/or mostly-peaceful protests. Also, expecting to have to deal with the consequences of actions - clearly spelled out consequences - is a 20th Century idea.

Self-defense, and defense of family is a human-right.
