    anti gunners that is who.

    gun owners need to always be on guard. Never make it easy for them, pointing guns at unarmed people makes it easy for them.

    but it is your guns, money and liberty at stake, not mine, so if you want to lose them over trespassers, I am ok with that.
    When the trespasser becomes a perceived threat to life, whole new ball game.

    I agree they exhibited poor muzzle discipline.

    However, given the actions of the mob tearing down their neighborhood’s gate, the threats against their lives and house, and the murders, arson and looting that was happening across the city, they had every reason to believe their lives and property were in imminent danger

    Fair enough but would you face that crowd with a firearm that you knew was inoperable? “Hey big daddy has a working rifle, I’ll just try and scare them with my noisy cricket!”

    I’m damn sure no tactical expert but I’m not gonna knowingly show up with a firearm that inoperable. Based on what I’ve read this is exactly what they did. SMH......

    I lost interest when I found out the pistol was an inoperable prop. Mrs. trigger discipline couldn’t have fired a shot but I guess she could have thrown it as she ran away.

    I missed that breaking news. How funny if she had gotten shot if she had pointed it at another law abiding person

    so little you know about the Penal code and deadly force laws.

    So many folks could avoid arrest if they just read it.

    I'm not going to argue with you about it. I'm glad you know more about the law than the rest of us. You don't know me, or some of the things I have been through. But I'm glad you are capable of making assumptions about people you don't know personally. That mind reading trick you have, must be one great circus act!

    Enjoy. I have other threads I can participate in without being lectured to by another member.

    Who you are and what you have been through has no bearing on the application of the law.

    Sorry you got your feelings hurt when I pointed out the law is different from what you think.

    I hate seeing gun owners get jammed up in S/D situations, so I try to point them to the penal code.

    But so many are hard headed and stuck on stupid, so stupid results is what they get. Zero Phucks Given for them.
