A former Sergeant Major at Camp Lejeune was attacked inside his Jacksonville home but managed to fight off his knife-wielding attacker saying, "The Constitution says a home is a man's castle and I spent too much time defending our freedom to think that I was going to leave or surrender to some young punk."
The attack happened Friday morning when 63 year-old George Shea says his granddaughter's former boyfriend broke into their home. Shea says he managed to pin down 22 year-old Alan Webster before he got away.
Webster is charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.

I will just say this to mr citizen, this entire attack had nothing to do with a job. You are just ignorant to think that, also employing U.S. citzens would help with the unemployment rate, but this is america, and america gives everyone the chance to get a fresh start. So stop running your mouth and one last thing OOO-RAH!!! SGTMAJ, great job and best luck to ya healing up.

The 22 year old needed a job? I'm sorry, that just doesn't make sense. It's not a matter of a job. He broke into the home of his ex girlfriend with a shank.
