I was speaking more in general terms than in regards to this particular situation.
I don't think blaming him for getting into the situation is really fair though. He didn't invite jerkwad into his house to steal his stuff. You are forgetting that the guy made a choice to B&E a house and made another choice that rather than flee he would get into close range of the guy holding the hatchet.
Like I said in my previous post, if some guy is running away I wouldn't touch him. If he is coming at me, or my family all bets are off. You keep pointing out that he was parked behind the guy and should have been. You think that his wife in the car would not have been in danger had the fool been allowed to ram his way out of the driveway?
