Yes. Control. He wanted to re exert control over what he felt was his shrinking space from annoyance, vandalism, peaceful enjoyment of his own domicile, etc. That is simply MOO.
But it seems many folks HATE him for daring to want to live peacefully in his own small home.
The man works, he likely could NOT move because of his job, he is stuck in an area that is getting more violent all of the time. He lives behind locked doors, his own small yard is invaded and the truck on his driveway is vandalized. His life is slowly becoming hell because of all of the criminals and miscreants that were increasingly encroaching on his small space and folks want to judge HIM harshly. They all say HE wasn't tolerant ENOUGH when his space and home were continually violated.
A few years ago I was living in an area that was becoming increasingly dangerous and it was making me feel on the defensive. I feel very sorry for those good people that find themselves constantly on edge, locking their doors every minute, always thinking THEY could be targets at any time.
This story makes me feel very very blessed that I was able to make a change and move to a safe quiet area a few years ago, when I come home and close the gate it is our peaceful little slice of heaven; I don't lock my doors, I don't lock my cars, I don't have to worry about being harassed by crazy individuals or tolerate them vandalizing my property.
It seems most are saying the way Wafer was living is now the "new normal" and he will be crucified for not being tolerant enough when facing criminals and crazies. And yes I do consider McBride a criminal, she CHOSE to illegally drink and do illicit drugs, she CHOSE to drive while heavily intoxicated risking the lives of others, she CHOSE to leave the scene of an accident after she damaged others property (quite possibly to avoid arrest), and then she CHOSE to demand entry and damage property at the house of an innocent homeowner.
He spent his life doing what he was supposed to do, working hard, minding his own business, following the laws, being respectful towards other people, while her lifestyle and choices were the polar opposite and there is really no doubt that her CHOICES are what lead her to be on his porch that night.
