I guess the home owner was suppose to let them rob and kill him? Logically there is NO defensible reason to excuse the criminals behavior, but then again, the left cannot be said to be logical or sensible. This is what I use to tell people that want these murderers, rapist, child molesters and robbers released from jail or prison. I honestly hope that the next time one of these criminals that you want released from custody commits a crime, I hope it is you or your family that the person violates. You want them out, you should be responsible for your actions. They should live in your neighborhood. They should associate with your kids, your family. You think they are great, prove it. Stand behind your beliefs and actions.
