This got to me because I received this DVD over the weekend, then at week's beginning, one hour from my front door this happens.
It sounds like someone might be hyping this up more than it needs to be. Or, for the conspiracy-minded, something is being hushed.
*doesn't know what to think at this point*
I sincerely hope it is a hype thing.
Either way someone or someones are using religion to destroy unity rather than faith to build bonds.
Sadly, this is the way a lot of people see religious "obsession" these days. Divisive and destructive rather than its actual intent to bring us all together. If only the world could take a page from our little story around here. You've got yours, I've got mine, let's have a little fun.

Indiana Father Kills Sex Offender Who Broke Into Home
Monday, September 29, 2008



INDIANAPOLIS ? A convicted sex offender died Sunday during a struggle with a father who found the naked man in or near his 17-year-old daughter's bedroom, police said.

Police responding to a call from the city's northwest side about 3:20 a.m. found 64-year-old Robert McNally on the hallway floor with his arm around the neck of 52-year-old David T. Meyers, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police spokesman Sgt. Matthew Mount said Meyers had a heart condition and may have had a heart attack. An autopsy was planned.

Police said Meyers was naked except for a mask and latex gloves and had entered the home through a window near the girl's bedroom with rope, condoms and a knife. He was familiar with the home's layout because it belonged to a relative, police said.

The girl awoke and screamed when she saw the man in her room, police said. The father responded and struggled with the intruder while the girl's mother phoned 911.

Police did not anticipate any charges against McNally.

"If a person breaks into your home, you are justified in using deadly force in defending your family," said Mount. "In this situation, I don't think he was trying to kill him, he was trying to hold him down."

Meyers had served 10 years in prison for criminal confinement and sexual deviate conduct and was wanted in Boone County for failure to register as a sex offender. He was registered as a sex offender in Marion County.

Police said Meyers lived with his mother and had recently lost his job.

The death is under investigation and will be reviewed by a Marion County prosecutor.

"Nobody wins," McNally told The Indianapolis Star. "It's a lose-lose situation for everybody. He has family also."

He said his daughter went to church Sunday after the incident.


I would have done the exact same thing. ~WHB

I'd have gone to a counselor, I think. But then again, church can be seen as counseling too.

Well...that's thoughtful of him. I wonder if they were "ribbed for her pleasure?"

Too much-too soon? :oops:

I tip my hat to Dad for choking the living shit outta that scumbag, and
saving his family a messy gun-related cleanup and the trauma that
follows..

However, be VERY cautious if you decide to use deadly force.

The "Castle Doctrine" is NOT cut-and-dry in the U.S.

MY state has NONE. I have to wait until a perp actually attempts to KILL
me or my family before I can defend, or they can SUE ME.

That's right!

And If I kill the perp in my house with no threat, the perp's FAMILY can
sue.

Here's a breakdown of state-by-state Castle, "Stand Your Ground" and
"Make My Day" laws.

My state has a good law.

And if that scumbag went near my wife or son- he would have been eating fiberglass pool cue...then the business end of my driver...
