Castle Doctrine or Stand your ground
 

Well we currently have two stories in the news involving people who scream "I am scared for my life" and murder innocent folks.

Both times the fear filled guy was the aggressor and had a gun.

Is it time for the Feds to step in and stop allowing the individual sates from passing laws that allow the slaughter of their own?

If so how?

If not, why do you support such aggressive and lethal laws?

Can't do that states rights doncha know.:(

That's why I asked how?

How many stories do we have about criminals killing their victims with guns?

Rob probably didn't mean it the same way I do but he is right.

I don't have any idea how, but I sure hope something is done somehow.
Everyone wants all these personal freedoms, to carry a gun, to stand ones' ground, and that would be all well and good if we could legislate common sense.
Freedom comes with responsibilities and consequences.

Um...... that's illegal, isn't it?

John

Many many more than if we did not have a crazy gun culture.

bam....

I don't know if all of you folks are familiar with the latest Stand Your Ground case in Texas. A guy walks over to a neighbor's house armed with a pistol, a flashlight and a video camera to complain about a loud party. He proceeds to shoot his neighbor dead while talking on the phone with 911 and videotaping, all the while saying "I fear for my life ... I'm standing my ground...." What a sad farce. Given that he's in Texas, he may well be acquitted from a murder charge for what was obviously premeditated murder.

Too bad Perry did not go ahead with secession.
