The grandfather of one of three suspects killed during the alleged March 27 home invasion in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, says the use of an AR-15 against the suspects was “unfair.” Breitbart News reported that the Broken Arrow homeowner’s 23-year-old son shot and killed three suspected home intruders with an AR-15. According to Tulsa World, Wagoner County Sheriff’s deputy Nick Mahoney said the three suspects “were wearing all-black clothing, masks, and gloves” and allegedly “forced their way into the home through a glass door in the back.” The homeowner’s son was asleep at the time and awoke to “loud bangs” as the suspects made entrance. The son grabbed the AR-15 and opened fire when the intruders walked into the hallway. Deputy Mahoney said “investigators found a knife on one of the deceased in the kitchen and brass knuckles on the other.” ABC 8 reports that Leroy Schumacher, grandfather of deceased 17-year-old suspect Jacob Redfearn, says what the boys “did was stupid” but they did not deserve to die.” He added, “Brass knuckles against an AR-15, come on, who was afraid for their life.” He said the use of the AR-15 meant “his grandson didn’t have a chance.” Investigators believe the homeowner’s son acted in self-defense, but Schumacher does not believe the son’s actions should be legal. He said, “There’s got to be a limit to that law, I mean he shot all three of them; there was no need for that.”

I keep a short-barrel shotgun with grip light handy at home to disassemble any serious threats - a rifle has too high a probability of wall penetration and harm to innocents. Other than that, yeah the AR-15 is unfair; should have used a flamethrower. Ghetto thugs? F'em. In a life-threatening fight, you don't give chances - you fight as hard and as dirty as necessary to destroy the threat.
I'm pretty sure that's why they sell frangible ammo for ar-15s.

And I'm pretty sure that virtually nobody, including this guy, loads their AR-15 with frangible ammo. I sure don't; my 7.62x39 eats FMJ with an occasional hollowpoint for dessert. You choose your tool based on the job at hand, and an AR-15 is a ridiculous home-defense weapon unless you live in a rural area on some land (I do) and think you might need to pick off a target outdoors at some distance.
