LONGS, SC — A homeowner in Longs, South Carolina, who fatally shot an intruder will not face criminal charges, according to local authorities.

Re-erect the Castle Doctrine completely. But eliminate the “nighttime” part.
Good for him! Happy days are here again.
Our hero should get tax free status for life, a new gun, ammo and the keys to the city from a grateful populace that will not have to be victimized by the scumbag in the future.
Saved tax slaves millions in legal, medical, incarceration costs and food. Saved judges the hassle of releasing the a$$hole to victimize you and your family.
Locals are advised to come and take time out to piss on the dead POS’s grave
Many reporters never report burglary. Just “disagreements over property”.
