I have a real problem with the headline. Not until you read the secondary headline do you realize that this incident is a self-defense shooting

One shot to the head, one dead robber.
Now THAT's my idea of good gun control.

Why is it misleading? You kill a person, it's homicide. That's the definition.

And fine gun control, one shot to the head and one dead scum bag.

Techically, it's a justifiable homicide.
But I think we know what the agenda of the writer is .................

I wonder if the wife knew the head shot was coming, and whether she had full confidence in her husband. If so, I can imagine her leaning her head carefully in one direction, and winking at her husband for the "go ahead".
Glad it turned out okay.

Even if no charges are filed, the death is considered a homicide I agree, "homicide" is fraught with the inference of "unlawful homicide" i.e., murder. Better maybe, "pesticide", or "self defense with extreme prejudice".

Nice shot man. too bad you cant take the rack have it stuffed and place it over the front door as a warning to other thieves.

Its Camden. I'm surprised it wasn't 54 homocides since this start of 2005!

"When the robber refused, the owner fired one shot, striking the assailant in the head, authorities said." Frontier justice is so effecient.

Even if no charges are filed, the death is considered a homicide. Included in the 54 in 2004 were four people killed by police officers. I am not suprised at the inaccuracy of the headline, considering the source, since the Inquirer like all Philly papers, politicians, and conditioned groupthink is totally anti self defense. I happen to live just outside the darn city, and am waiting for Mayor Street (a part of the $95K unpaid gas bill fame from a failed diner deal, as well as part of the Uptown Theater debacle) to begin putting up the "Philadelphia Wall" complete with "Checkpoint Street" etc.
Actually, the correct term would be "Justifiable Homicide", or better yet " Self Defense". I do like the head shot, neat, clean, and final. No trial needed, and one less scumbag on the street. This is the way things should always work out! WELL DONE to the store owner...
