This man did not care enough about the neighbors house next door to even know the House number...how long was he living there? did he even know the neighbor?

He just wanted to kill somebody!

original description

Do you remember hearing the compelling 9/11 call last November when a man reported a couple men entering his neighbors home. Then he said he was going to shoot them - which he then did. It turns out they were both illegal foreign nationals from Columbia. Today, the grand jury decided not to file any charges against him: Joe Horn, 61, shot the two men in November after he saw them crawling out the windows of a neighbor's house in the Houston suburb of Pasadena. Horn called 911 and told the dispatcher he had a shotgun and was going to kill the men. The dispatcher pleaded with him not to go outside, but Horn confronted the men with a 12-gauge shotgun and shot both in the back. The message we're trying to send today is the criminal justice system works," Harris County District Attorney Kenneth Magidson said. Horn's attorney, Tom Lambright, has said his client believed the two men had broken into his neighbor's home and that he shot them only when they came into his yard and threatened him. The two Horn suspected of committing burglary , Hernando Riascos Torres, 38, and Diego Ortiz, 30, were unemployed illegal immigrants from Colombia. Torres was deported to Colombia in 1999 after a 1994 cocaine-related conviction. The episode touched off protests from civil rights activists who said the shooting was racially motivated and that Horn took the law into his own hands. Horn's supporters defended his actions, saying he was protecting himself and being a good neighbor to a homeowner who was out of town. CNN Here's the entire 9/11 call:
