Most "news" stories have "invented" news...this has been going on since man could walk...the "public" still doesn't understand the "news" business!! Just follow politics!!! Most of that "news" is untrue and stupid people vote based on it!!!

It is every Americans right to defend themselves, i believe robert did the right thing it could have been him dead, I no robert personally and he is a good person and does alot for his community, he is working with fortune 1000 companies right now and finished his school, this is a clear case of self defense.
