A dramatic 911 call from the Pasadena man who allegedly shot and killed two men accused of burglarizing his neighbor has been released. The dispatcher tried to talk him out of it. Horn (the shooter) has not been arrested or charged with any crime. God Bless America

First off BS! The officer told him not to follow.. he had no reason to go after the guy, so what if some items get stolen
Lets weigh the odds...

Offenders life and future.
or stolen items?

Yes its wrong to rob houses (Texas=Nono) but to go out there and TRY to confront them then shoot them after they supposedly made a move at you, to shoot them? I dono does not seem right

I read the story. It did not mention the burglars having weapons. It did mention them having wives and kids though. I believe in the right to bear arms even though I am Canadian, but I can`t help that think if the burglars saw a guy with a shotgun coming at them maybe they also had a right to defend themselves. The right to bear arms was to defend against an oppressive government not to kill burglars.

I agree with praise jebus, if more people would confront criminals instead of looking the other way we would have less crime. The guy who did this was an 61 year old man. He was asked to watch the house by that neighbor. If they truly came after him, he had every right to defend himself. He was an idiot for telling the police he was going to kill them though. 1st goal should have been to stop the crime not kill the suspects.

GregP I`m all for confronting people but running after anyone with a shotgun will produce a bad result.

Also ,"He was asked to watch the house by that neighbor," May I ask where you learned this. In the tape he says he hardly knew them. Please research if you wish to be taken seriously.

thats bullshit, from the beginning he wanted to shoot them...he just wanted to kill someone...if he would have stayed inside nobody would have been killed...

he was up and out of his seat ready to kill as soon as the burglars came out the house...before he even knew they came into his yard he was rushing out to kill...

the right to bear arms is for protection, this guy took advantage of it for his hillbilly killing pleasure...trigger happy redneck...

nova1999, don`t be dissing GregP, he`s a much older and respected member of this community that brought us many funny clips; believe me, your "2007 winner" means shit to us, it actually brings repulsion with it.

I would appreciate what this guy did for saving my stuff, but STOPING a crime is the wise solution, not punishing it!

But then again, maybe he stopped future crimes by calling the police (in hope for them to be caught and placed in a rehabilitation enviorement -> prison). But honestly, i`m pro-life, so i don`t think shooting 2 guys that broke into a house is cool, get a fucking hand gun and shoot them in the leg or something. I am sick of old stupid ass americans with big shotguns killing people and having no remorse. IF YOU HAVE A GUN, USE IT WISELY don`t just use it...

That`s the way to bring the law down on these criminals and or gang members that do this shit as a job. They will not work or get an education yet they`ll do this for a life. If your going to to do a crime you damn well better be willing to pay the price. Also half these crooks don`t give a damn about getting locked up, but a bullet will make them and others think twice. I bet the money from the "loot" would have been spent on crack or smack.

Yeah, you definitely don`t chase someone down and shoot them. You only shoot if they break into YOUR house, or are attempting to. He did the right thing by calling the police, but hes an idiot for shooting the guys. He should definitely be arrested and charged with two counts of murder.

Oh, and "Boo! You`re dead!" was a little uncalled for. What the fuck is this, a cheesy movie?

The criminals deserved to die. I bet if they droped the loot and put their hands up, the gun would not have been fired. I bet they where bright enough to run with the loot or counter-attack.

If someone is raping a little girl next door to you and you see its happening and you know whats going on, you don`t wait for police. And I dont think you deserve to post an opinion on this unless you have been robed before.

kome if someone is getting raped next door thats completly different circumstance and the guy deserves to be shot.

But if its just material goods that will be covered by home owners ensurance the guy has no right to kill them, no one has the right to take another persons live unless they have ruined someone elses.

Sure im for the death penalty but thats only in extreme cases where people have commited murders themselves, kinda an eye for and eye, but not for material goods. This monster should have gone to prison for this, if he had at least given the robbers a chance a surrender then shot them so be it, but it was in cold blood, they didnt see it comming.

The fact that he was not found guilty of manslaughter and was "praised" for his actions prove that the people of texas and Horne`s supporters are the missing link between cavemen and humans.

I actually live near Pasadena (Seabrook). I go there everyday for my classes, San Jac Central. Anyway, heard about this on the news and I thought, "Whoa, now that`s one hell of a neighbor."

Pasadena is overrun with crime and you really have to watch out for each other if you live there. I think the guy should have stayed in inside, but I can`t help but admire his tenacity to protect his neighbor`s property.

The criminal came at him despite him having a gun in clear view. The criminal trespassing onto his property and approaching him in an aggressive fashion is what caused his death.

What was Horn supposed to do? Stand there and let the criminal take his gun and shoot him with it? Going outside onto his own lawn isn`t a crime either, Horn acted in self defense despite willingly putting himself in a dangerous situation.

I think he said that he was going to kill them at first place so the police officers hurry up to the scene instead of taking 45 minutes as they usually do for situations like that.

I know the feeling of being robbed and I think it is disgusting that the cops don`t care more than that about catching the assholes before they run away. I think that they`re just arriving too late on purpose to avoid any contact with the robbers to avoid any risk of being shot. People keep bitching about crime but no problem will be solved if even the cops refuse to stop the criminals because they`re afraid of the risks. But this is their goddamn job for crying out loud.

If they refuse make justice for the citizens, they shouldn`t complain that the citizens start doing it themselves.


And that guy rocked. I don`t say we should shoot every burglar on sight but we should be able to defend our property and then use deadly force if the burglar threatens you for doing it.

Turning petty theft in to two deaths.. you American gun toting idiots don`t seem to have the ability to comprehend a simple concept such as that..

You don`t even understand what the fucking second amendment means yet you wave it around proud like that fucking flag the rest of the world would no sooner burn because of your ass backwards mindset.

I suppose I shouldn`t go on because I don`t support people getting away with murder unless necessary, for instance if they were in his house and his life was in danger.
Because of that this post will be buried and not read, though it is sad that you American`s will never understand the flaw of your way. However, I will..

Vigilante activities like this gives men like the one in this case the ability to kill people over crimes that don`t deem it necessary. Before you say "This is what the second amendment is all about" actually research it, seriously.

God many of you people make me sick, but I suppose it`s one of those cases of overbearing powerful ignorance. If you don`t get it by now, you never will.. I pity you.

On a final note.. what if your brother, or a child were one of these burgers.. had recently fallen into the wrong crowd and was pressured in to taking part in this activity. Then they were killed over it, and the killer got away with it even though he was never in danger? Just a hypothetical situation that I`m sure won`t be enough to influence your opinion one little bit, which in itself portrays the image you give to the rest of the world..

Oh yes.. and "God Bless America?" .. ya think so eh? O.o, riight. This is totally what Jesus preached ;)

if he stopped `em on his lawn it is reasonable to assume they were there to hurt/kill him for being a witness or they were there to rob him next. It is his right to stand on his own lawn any time of the day or night he pleases - if someone out there wants to do him harm for that and he knows it, then a threat in the neighborhood needs expunging. Sound cold? The threat is lethal to every person in that neighborhood, children and all - threats like that are not petty or trivial, they are not only the responsibility of the police, it is your responsibility to protect yourself.

What if his neighbors were home and had just been murdered? If the homeowner`s had been there it probably would have gone that way. If Horn`s house was next on their list it might have been his fate. If the police did not get there in time to prevent the escape of these unidentified men, odds are good Horn`s house would`ve eventually been hit when they returned, and if he was home and didn`t see them coming - he`d have been murdered, or his wife.

He`s gone to pieces because any good man would after killing. He was smart enough to see the truth of the reality, and did what he had to when he believed time had run out as they escaped.

Aids_Sauce, I`m not american, but you`re full of shit. I think it`s safe to assume that the crime rates would be lower in the US if more people were like this guy. If criminals realised there`s a very real possibility they`re gonna get killed while committing a crime, they`d think twice about doing that. Criminals do what they do because they know most other people are afraid of them and they feel safe.

You bitch about how two crooks were killed yet you say stuff like "I hope your country burns" and that victims of 9/11 basically deserved it. And your holier-than-thou attitude is annoying. STFU already.

Oh, and might telling me what does this incident have to do with a "police state"? Do you even know what it means? In such a state crime is nationalised and behaviour such as this would be discouraged vigorously by the state. Because if someone can take action against crooks, they can take action against the government.

i believe most ppl deep down on some level approve of what this guy did. or at least if their house was getting robbed and your neighbor shot them, you would at least be happy about burglars not being able to get into other ppl`s houses or your own house again. but in principle, i think it`s not good to take the law into your own hands. in some situations yes, but others no. and the border between acceptable and unacceptable depends on the individual person`s values, which is very very different in every person. that is why there are laws to standardize the definition of crime and the levels of punishment. same with police, police are supposed to enforce law and catch criminals, not judge or implement punishment. but in a way, i do feel safer with 2 burglars dead. eh.

Aids and Nova do you really believe the stuff your preaching?

Ive never had my house been robbed, But imagine all the stuff that they could have done. The very second they decided to go into that house they knew that this could go totally wrong, that something of this magnatuide could happen, they knew it and went anyway. What if people were in the house? Do you think they would have for a second given the option not killed them left and hope to god that there not found out and do not go to jail? In my area as of late there have been break ins and they dont just stop at one house they do several before they pack up and go. So yes this horn guy could have been next on there list and he could have possibly been killed.

Aids you preach about how fucked up America is but i hate to burst your bubble but there are very few places left in the world that are any better. And would you want to be the family that live in that house?? To come home see there windows busted half the stuff they earned and paid for stolen? Yes insurance would pay for it, but the fear and fact that someone disregard there safety and property would cause some familys to move.


Am i saying they deserved to die? No. But I myself would have shot them still in the leg or what ever i could but not fatal. This was brought on by there ineptidue to go out work for a life and try and have a decent life that is possible for everyone if they make the effort to go for it. Fuck work at a McDonalds for all i care. Atleast its rightfully earned money.
The guy went overboard but it doesnt take away the fact that he did something that can and will happen again when people break into another persons house.

September 1st Texas laws change to give more rights to home owners and citizens in the state of Texas regarding gun laws.

What is scarier is how long it took for law enforcement to get to the house. From when he called 911 at the start.

"Aids and Nova do you really believe the stuff your preaching?"

I`ll simplify it, do I think that a man should murder two other men simply because they are robbing a neighbors house in turn putting no one in danger?
Simplify it more, do I believe a man should die because he is a thief? No, you know who does though? Those fuck`s you claim to be so different from in the middle east! The ones you`re supposed to be better then.

How can any of you call yourselves American`s if you honestly think this is justice in any way. You have all truly made me fucking sick and surprised, I actually expected more from most of the people on spiked, even those that share a mutual loathing with me.

So you wonderful, peaceful, justified, free and full of rights country.. congratulations on setting yourselves back about 150 years with the ignorance you`ve expressed in commenting on this video.

I would be ashamed to be an American if I knew so many of you felt this way. I know I`m ashamed just to be in the Country next to you right now. More then ever because usually it`s your government showing it`s true colours.. today you all have!

You guys are sick lol. And I dont mean that in the way of Killing, gun owners, Doing whats right, or even this story. I mean your all sick because you failed. You failed to realize that Those two men are Victoms of their enviornment. A system where culture isnt more understanding, more friendly, more consideret. If those poor fellas lived in an area where they probably where not in poverty, had a decent home, work, food, soical area. Then i bet they wouldnt be doing that house burglarizing. Thats the real issue here. Why are they doing it, whats the cause and how can you fix it.
Then Poor Mr Farmer or Joe Horn, wont need his shotgun and wont have to be feel oblagated to put a gun in another mans direction. Probably a man Looking for money for food, Rent, possably drugs, or other none governmently regulated activities. But even that is a problem widly seperating people. show some love, give a hug and maybe you wont need to shot someone.
Maybe i didnt say that all politicly correct but the the idea still stands, its not the shotting or the nabor thats the issue its the socail problems we face as a nation. We are divided and need to come togeather.

What they don`t realize is that if you let bullies get away with this. Police or citizen. The bullies will do it to you or your family.

To simplify. If you see someone robbing a neighbor call 911. If you feel you must stop them don`t play cowboy and run out with a firearm. Why attack unarmed people with a lethal weapon. Take a couple blunt non-lethal objects for protection, and don`t make yourself a killer.

You hold human life in too high regard. Some people should be disposed of immediately. Its because of lax laws and peace lovers that put the criminal first above the victim that we let these thiefs out to commit crimes again and again.

A crowbar was in their hands. What do you think would have happened if lets say some old woman was at home napping? Since these were niggers, most likely they would have raped, sodomized and killed her. Maybe not.

Since they are so brazen, i for one wouldn`t take the risk of the above scenario happening. These niggers commited a crime that could have escalated, and therefore they should be punished or killed if thats what just happens to be with a neighbor with a gun.

Yet you, Aids Sauce, think these guys deserve to live. Your missing on the "potential" situation aren`t you? THEY commited the crime. They deserve to be punished. Period.

i agree that the two robbers were wrong in what they were doing but is robbery justification for the death penalty? i don`t know the full story and we cannot know for certain if the 2 burglars actually attacked Horn. If they did, and he shot them in self defense, I can understand the situation. But I don`t know why they would try to attack someone who is armed with a shotgun when they themselves are not armed (although this is still possible..) Either way, regardless of what happened, the best thing to do would be to wait for the police in my opinion, because they most likely would have been caught with the description that Horn gave the police, and it didn`t seem as though the police were that far away. If Horn actually waited... two lives may have been spared, and some children may still have fathers today.

If it wasn`t for a Korean across the hall with a hand gun she would have and maybe more. This was not those robbers first crime and it would not be their last. They did that crime with no regard for anyone. Their disregard and lack of respect for people ended their lives. They made a choice to do the crime, had they not they may be around today to do another crime. What do you think they would have done with that crowbar had somebody been in the house? Do you think they would have just took off? I don`t think so. They got what was coming to them.

This trigger happy vigilante CHOSE to confront those two robbers deliberately. And this was against the advice and instructions of the police officer on the other end of the line. Not only was he in no danger, after shooting the first victim, he PURSUED the other fleeing robber down the street and killed him.

smooth_stalin You speak of a lot of hypotheticals. Do you have facts to back your hypothesis?

I am hardly one to let people get hurt or abused. Last week on the bus I saw a drunk heavy set woman threatening a young passenger that smiled at her outlandish behavior. So seeing no one doe anything I tapped the drunk girl on the shoulder and told her that what she was doing was unacceptable. Not even the Bus driver helped. I don`t believe in living in a world of intimidation. So I did something. I didn`t threaten violence or anything as I also tried to understand the person that was doing the threatening.

So for all you saying you would do the same thing. When you see someone outnumbered in a bar fight help the person. When you see a homeless person think of a solution. When you talk about crime please come up with something better than a foolish statement like oh they deserved to die or lock them up and throw away the key.

nova1999, in answer to you above comments to me, the news reported that he knew that neighbor on the day that this actually happened and that he had asked them to watch the house. The full 911 tape had not been aired at that time.

Also, when Joe Horn refers to September 1st, he is refering to the date that Texas gun laws were changed in favor of the victim. The new law does not require you to be backed into a corner before you can use deadly force. Florida, were I live, also passed similar legislation recently.

How dare anyone tolerate the escape of such men. There is too much at risk if they get away. Horn likely has prevented the future death of innocents at the expense of men who have no regard for life.

I don`t think these two guys deserved to die for stealing, but I guess if the police don`t get there in time what other way is there to stop someone? The biggest factor if I was a juror on this case would be whether Joe warned the two to stop before he fired. If they charged or ran at him, then they deserved to die.

Anyway, I see both sides of the argument on whether it was justified or not. I tend to believe these guys were probably career criminals being they were in their 30`s, so society was probably bettered by their deaths.

They didn`t, to say they ever have or would is complete speculation. Also very good chances they knew that the people were out of town, I don`t think they were Trick or Treating door to door with their tire irons champ..

The only justification for Joe`s actions would be the men drawing their own weapons, or charging him with the tire irons (Which they likely wouldn`t seeing as he had a shotgun). Now instead of running out and confronting them, he ran out pumped with adrenaline and shouted "YOU`RE DEAD" and shot them to death..

Oh and it`s obvious he had a specific agenda going in to it..

"You wanna make a bet?.. I`m gonna Kill em!"

His intentions were rather clear... However he will indeed get away with it, look where he lives :/

The criminals had left crime scene #1 and were confronted by a citizen with a shotgun. They could have run away(what a normal person would do) or they could have given up and yelled "Please don`t shoot!!"( what a normal person would do). But they(crazy) decided to attack a person armed with a shotgun, working on crime scene #2. This would be the one where the old man is shot in the back of the head as he lies on the ground after being beaten.
Some of you people highly under estimate the viciousness of criminals, and over value the lives of these damaged, and empty, humans.

So judging from the comments above, a large % of American`s support punishing crimes that "might" happen.
All of a sudden we see posts that because these two broke in and stole material items, they must also be rapists and murderers.
Hopefully an investigation will tell us if the men were shot in the front or the back so we do know if Horn`s life was actually in danger.

Regardless, Aids is right in stating that death as a punishment for stealing is a medieval punishment, supported only by the very types of governments you American`s like to feel so superior too over in the Middle East.

This incident will do nothing to stop crime. Criminals do not think they will get caught. If anything, any criminal buddies of theirs will now just make sure to get their own guns, and shoot first in case there is another Mr. Horn out there.

Only an insane extremist wouldn`t denounce terrorism. That`s a whole different story. I`m telling you right now...Put me in that situation? I would have blown both of their legs off for it. If they die? oh well...They should have been useful members of society. They weren`t so they lost their lives. It`s totally sad. TOTALLY, but you can`t have compassion for a pedophile or rapist cause they only did it once. So, compassion in this situation isn`t any different. I do think he should have aimed low. Blow them off their feet & give them something to remember. It`s not a race thing, hell they have hispanic names, I don`t care if you`re a white guy in a 3 piece suit, you`re ass isn`t going to get away with robbing an innocent person. I work hard for what I have & you aren`t going to take it away from me. Things don`t matter, life matters, but to struggle through life & earn things that are stolen, is irreprehensible.

^ they weren`t pedophiles or rapists, and according to the law in which you define yourself and separate yourself from others with everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Yeah that`s a wishy washy sounding statement no doubt, but the fact is they didn`t deserve to die.

My Fience`s father was a criminal when he was young (nothing serious), but he cleaned up his act by taking initiative and cutting himself off from everyone involved in that lifestyle. Sure these men didn`t appear to ever go in that direction, however to take away all possibility by slaughtering them over petty theft is very hypocritical and anti American if you ask me.

Yeah I`m up here in my Igloo, but my Igloo is pretty damn close to Toronto and there`s a fuck load of crime there, trust me I`ve had to deal with it up close and personal. Even if part of me thinks they should all be lined up and shot, that`s not how we do things. It`s not what we as North American`s stand for and it`s not what we want the world to see us as. Murder over a fucking robbery makes us no better then those we claim to be better then. How can we justify the concept of being a greater civilization when SO many people are filled with glee at the concept that two men were killed over something like Robbery.

Now you tell me to show you for certain they were only robbing and weren`t going to do anything else? Well tell me for certain that they were! Perhaps they were generally decent people who did get involved time to time with non violent criminal activity. They find out a guy is going out of town so they rob his house.. then they get blown away by a fucking redneck. Now that might sound like I`m trying to hard to be optimistic, but the fact is I`m simply looking at the situation like the good decent people we claim to be are supposed to. We have a law system and a court system. This man played Judge, Jury and Executioner this day and weather we feel it was a good call or not. The fact is, it`s not how we`re supposed to operate.

Normally on seeing this video I might have thrown a random joke out about it, because in the long run I don`t really give that much of a shit about this incident. It was the reaction of about 100 people on this site that truly disgusted me. How can you be proud to be American if this is what defines you? Perhaps I`ve spent to much time trying to separate American citizens from their government.. hopes that they were actually decent people. I may have been wrong!

They turned out to be in a violent crime ring and illegal to America. That`s two shots not wasted.
