No, it happens, unfortunately. No one's making excuses for this crazy asshole in the article. You're just reading way too far into what I said and you're assuming I must feel like this was justified. It wasn't. But if the question is, as it was, "what kind of home invader rings the doorbell?" The answer is "uh, plenty of them do that."
If you, in good faith, believe otherwise, then congrats on living somewhere without an abhorrent rate of violent crime. You are officially privileged enough to be delusional. Now educate yourself.
