I have no sympathy what so ever for those two. And you can bet your bottom dollar if it were me in Mr. Horn's shoes there would still be two dead thieves.

Can't agree with this. That's not the purpose of the law, and not how people should interpret it. That's the Wild Wild West.
Now, do I have sympathy for the two people that died? Not really. But I would have sympathy for the poor sap that was trying to get into his house, neighbor mistook him for a burglar, and shot him as he ran away from a man standing in the dark with a shotgun. Unless someone is breaking into your house, with you and your family inside of it, you should not have the right to use stronger force than the police could.
And to 92bDad's point, I 100% believe in gun ownership, gun use, and gun justice under the right circumstances. This was not the correct circumstance, imo.
