The National Rifle Association, as we all know, is a benevolent group that just wants to make sure that every American gets the chance to marry the gun or guns of their choice. So it's not too surprising to learn that the NRA literally wrote the text for a new bill
Instead of expanding the pro-death Stand Your Ground law, they should return to the traditional duty to retreat principle before using deadly force. And anyone claiming self-defense should face a jury. Let them decide if it was justified instead of the police or a prosecutor.
There are some nice beaches in Florida—St George Island near Apalachicola in particular—and maybe some other stuff worth visiting. When they come to their senses, I might consider going back.

So what happens when someone gets in the way of a warning shot like some poor schmuck is sitting on the crapper and his downstairs neighbor starts firing warning shots into his ceiling?

And the invulnerable ubermensch that&#039;s laughed in the face of your bullets has to duck the thrown gun.
Those &quot;warning shot&quot; bullets have to come down somewhere, does anybody ever think about THAT?
A tragic, but completely unforeseeable, accident.

It&#039;s methadone for public exhibitionists.
The howwow.
OJ had to move to a gated community.
If &quot;threatened use of force&quot; is the test, every vehicle on I-95 in Miami will have a 50 caliber mounted front and back.
