The Fort Wayne blogosphere has been all over the video clerk who killed an armed, would-be robber. Here are The PA-IN Erudition, Angry White Boy and The Fort Wayne Blog. The general feeling is: People have had it, justice was done, self-defense, like that. I have nothing to add to all that except to clarify this:
The Allen County Coroner's Office is scheduled to perform an autopsy on the victim today, Joyner said. If his death is ruled a homicide, it would be the 18th this year in Fort Wayne and Allen County.
When people read that there have been 18 homicides, they tend to think, "18 bad guys have killed 18 innocent people." But "homicide" just means the killing of one person by another. It assigns no legal blame. That would be "murder."
