DEERFIELD, N.Y. -- Gun rights advocates are standing behind a Central New York homeowner who shot and killed two people who were attempting to burglarize his home earlier this week.

More than $6,000 has been raised in a GoFundMe campaign to help Ronald Stolarczyk with his legal fees.

Stolarczyk, 64, of Deerfield, was charged with having an unregistered handgun after he shot the people who were burglarizing his home, police said. He was charged with criminal possession of a firearm, a felony, and remains in jail.

The handgun was unregistered. Stolarczyk told authorities the gun was his father’s, and when his father died he forgot to register it, according to Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara.

The two intruders he shot and killed have been identified as Patricia Anne Talerico, 57, and Nicholas A. Talerico, 27, of Utica, according to New York State Police. The aunt and nephew were burglarizing the home at 6110 Walker Road in Deerfield, police said.

"The right of the people to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT be infringed".

~~~~~~~~~~
"Legislators" who write laws that infringe upon the above God-given right -- and CREATE criminals of those who merely inherit their parents' estate -- should be publicly hanged for treason.

Since the SAFE Act prohibits use of an unregistered weapon even in your own home, it's patently unconstitutional according to Heller.

After this incident, Stolarczyk's house was condemed, and he is not able to go back to his home.

Mark Wolber, Stolarczyk's attorney, explained what's next for him:

"our efforts to get him in a safe place and to get some of hi needs treated have proper diet have a place to stay until we can get his house in order.

He was released in his own recognizance and that is an indication to me that the district attorney's office realizes this is not a dangerous person."

Wolber says he's being provided with temporary shelter and benefits through social services.
