Another liberal to the pedophile's defense......
If lethal force isn't warranted when someone is raping a 5 year old then when is it ever warranted? There is no more an egregious crime than than child molestation. We should not even be trying to rehabilitate them when they are captured, they should all just be executed once convicted.
Is he coming to his defense, or just stating the law?
Let's face it, he did break the law. You can't just beat someone to death because you're pissed. That said, I might well have done the same. Someone harming your child does tend to provoke an extreme reaction from parents and that should come as no surprise to anyone, least of all the pedo.
He isn't stating the law. The law says that you can use lethal force to stop such an attack, which is exactly what this Texas man did. He did not break any law, and *if* he did the laws should be made to protect such citizens when they need to take matters into their own hands in order to protect themselves or the life of another.
The man's reaction to someone raping his child was not "extreme", and quite honestly if you would not react in a similar way upon finding a man raping some 5 year old(even if it wasn't your own), then I would say you are one sick individual.
And one other thing. The man wasn't just beating "someone" because he was "pissed". He was defending his own daughter from a PEDOPHILE who he just caught RAPING his daughter. Yes, I am sure there was plenty of rage in him, but anger and rage is not always a bad thing. Being enraged over a gross injustice is perfectly natural and any normal human being should feel that way in such a circumstance.
