    From the article....

    "They were going to be living in our house after I was dead, and they were pointing to different rooms and said, 'That’s going to be my bedroom and that’s going to be the living room and I’m going to be taking a shower in that room’.”

    That makes it sound as if they were inside the house.

    I can't believe this happened in America.

    I didn't really think about that perspective when I initially read that quote, but I agree that specific quote with no context does sound as you suggest. I read it as members of the mob out front were pointing at various rooms and taunting the homeowners.

    I didn't read it that way. To me, it sounded like the crowd was taunting the homeowners by pointing at windows and saying what they would do with that room. The implication, of course, is that they would occupy the house after murdering the homeowners. It just sounded like an alternate way to threaten their lives.
