   Nice backpedal. But you aren't getting away with changing the topic. In   
   multiple posts, you accused the homeowner of setting a trap, which would   
   have been a crime of intent.   
      
   Here, you accuse me of having JUSTIFIED the homeowner's action. I did no   
   such thing. The REASON the homeowner did it, according to news reports,   
   was not a crime of intent which setting a trap would have been.   
      
   You dug yourself into a hole and keep digging it deeper and deeper.
