Taylor was only 24 years old.<\/p>\n<p>Early Monday Sean was sleeping at his Florida home with his girlfriend. His one year old daughter was also in the room. Taylor tried to protect his family with a machete from an intruder. Shots were fired and Taylor was hit in the upper leg. It looked like Sean was going to pull through, but it wasn&#8217;t meant to be. Its a shame Taylor didn&#8217;t own a gun. But because of his probation he wasn&#8217;t allowed to own one.<\/p>\n<p>Now people have the nerve to say that Sean Taylor got what he deserved. That he was a thug that couldn&#8217;t stay out of trouble. The man&#8217;s body isn&#8217;t even cold yet and people are casting judgment. These same idiots have no idea that after Taylor&#8217;s daughter was born he kept his nose clean. Coaches and fellow teammates were impressed with his turnaround.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not going to speculate on the reasons why a daughter no longer has her father.
