The poor pensioner and his wife aren't even at the house so won't see the 'tributes'

It's a shame the burglar's family can't behave with more dignity and respect, people might have more sympathy for their loss.

That neighbour should be holding their head in shame :-(

Oh dear

Apparently one neighbour has said they can use their fence to put flowers up. Good neighbour NOT I bet they will be popular :-|

Exactly

They need the neighbour to find their balls
United they stand Divided they fall :-(
It could of been their homes Targeted :-(

They need all those neighbours to go out and protest.

If I lived near I would be

try telling that to the Met Joy!!

Henry Vincent's tributes should be displayed outside the home
He should of been safely inside the night he died
But no he was out Burgling and terrorising old people, robbing them

The flowers are just been put where they are
To intimidate the poor old man who killed him
Defending his wife and home


Karma is sometimes sweet :-( :-(

The poor householder is still getting the threats, though :-(

If what Liz read is true, it was not the householder who killed him anyway, it was his mate by pulling out the screwdriver which led him to bleed to death.

He was evidently not rushing him to A&E for treatment.

My comment about Buck House and the queen was meant rather tongue in cheek Caroline. And, hands up all who would be happy to kill an armed intruder. I for one would, so long as I did it in defence of myself or one of my family.

Sums it up nicely.

So true, Sharron.

Yes, stop people taking those flowers down, encourage the families to place as many as they like and then leave them there.

Leave them while they wilt and drop off the fence and then rot away in a heap because they will be a rotting heap for a lot longer than they will ever be a glowing tribute and I know which I think is more representative of the 'victim'.

This is Janet Street-Porter writing in the Daily mail.

Wow the Met are saying it was a tragic death! Okay in so much as any violent death is tragic if he hadn't broken in armed then this couldn't have happened. As already noted he didn't die there anyway, and the family have plainly said they won't rest until his death is revenged and yet the Met say they will arrest the general public if need be.
The World is getting more crazy daily.

Whilst you're right Dermot I feel no sympathy for one of the families involved they bought it upon themselves.

This time next month, this whole miserable event will be no more than a blurred memory to many just like all other awful historical goings-on - except for the two families concerned & the muck-raking media.
