Guess you've never heard of intruders killing everyone in the house, including babies and children? You need to get out more..........
Or... he could have raped you and killed your family after he raped and killed the mother and then slaughtered the baby. How does that scenario work for you?
It's difficult to impossible to get a shotgun in Chicago. I live there. I know no one who isn't a cop who even owns a firearm there. If that woman lived in Chicago I doubt she would have been able to defend herself. Chicago makes its virtual impossible for law abiding citizens to own. Obviously, if you are a criminal, it's easy because you don't have to follow the laws.
That sucks....I don't agree with seizing legal guns from law abiding citizens. What was it?.....all hand guns?...or did they decide assault weapons are now illegal?...? Also...did Chicago citizens say they wanted that?....
My first choice for home defense is a sawed off shotgun, but since the liberals made it illegal, I go with a Glock 21. It never jams.
Ayuh,... They've just made it Next to impossible to own.... Permits, fees, Refusals for the chief of police, etc....
All hand guns.... both cities. I believe it was the Supreme Court struck it down. Chicago Handgun Ban Struck Down The scary part is that the 4 Liberal judges actually did not abide by the U.S. Constitution in their ruling. They are pure political hacks. Washington D.C. Handgun Ban Stuck Down Again... the liberal judges totally disregarded the U.S. Constitution. We have a political court and that is not good for anyone.
most intruders are poor and oppressed and just looking for some quick money not to commit such acts described above the home owner announcing they are armed is a small risk that must be taken to preserve life, it will most likely result in the intruder running away
Ayuh,... I agree with most all yer points,.... There's more money in buyin' 'n sellin' Guns, than there is in Gold,... Especially for the last few years.... That's what the so called "Gun Show Loophole" is all 'bout,... Closing the market to private investors, 'n the generational handin' down of firearms within families.... Both of which become Illegal, if the Progressives get their way...
Okay...I went through the articles.....and these laws were definitly proposed by WA DC local Democrats. Obama wasn't involved in the proposal or passing of the legislation. Obama did say...... It appears as though Obama took the middle ground to me, like a slick politician. Have I missed something else?
You my friend, are a very delusional man. The only one who needs rehabilitation perhaps is you. Sarcasm on/ You're right, who cares about the stupid mother and baby, let them just die. They are both evil and trying to kill the poor oppressed criminal who broke into the house with a knife, because he just wants some quick money. Sarcasm off/ You do realize if he broke into the house to steal, why on earth would he go into the bathroom and advance towards the mother...he obviously wanted to do harm. You, just like most liberals in the country want more rights for criminals than for law abiding citizens. Its almost as if you have a phobia for proper justice. Quite sick and twisted mind that has been decaying since birth.
in canada people leave their doors open and people break in all the time and steal their things the difference is no one ever gets killed there because the homeowners don't act immorally and shoot people at the drop of a hat all she had to do was announce she had a gun or at most fire a warning shot and they both would have ran away no one would try to attack or run toward someone with a gun pointed at them so the story is sensationalized
then leave your door open, have a sign that says you "will not shoot" and we will let criminals know where they can get an easy score and leave us the hell alone. we all win.
Oh, this is kinda funny..... I hope Canadian Eye and the rest of the good Canadians come along and respond to your fairy tale that they leave their doors unlocked all the time and are always getting robbed and that's ok w/them b/c they want to act 'morally'........ LOL! Guy, you have some serious problems floating around in your head.....
that explains the driving force behind the arguments, its not really to defend life but defend property
well I am not a conservative by any stretch but i would never leave my apartment door or windows unlocked, my parents always were careful to make sure the house was locked up at night and that hasn't changed since i moved out. All my friends and their families lock up. Interestingly enough, my wife's parents never used to lock up (they do now sometimes) and i always thought they were crazy. They said it was because they felt safe in their neighborhood but you can never really know what could happen and a criminal doesn't need a firearm to be a serious threat to you or your family.
In Massachusetts, she'd certainly have been arrested. Just ONE reason that state should be rented out by the acre for target practice.
The homeowner is defending both and there really are people who have worked all their adult lives and provide for themselves, including their furniture and all other essential necessities - THEIR property. They have every right to keep what THEY have PAID for w/THEIR own hard-earned money....... If a thief breaks in to steal some hard-working guy's property and he ends up w/a bullet hole in him ... well, that happens when someone lives their life as a criminal....... Is that to hard for you to understand?
Hard to believe that a mother w/an infant would be arrested for shooting someone who broke down her door carrying a 12" hunting knife.......
LOL... Intruders are killed regulary in Las Vegas Metro area. The out of state crooks don't know their limitations of the law, and the Homeowners of LV do. It's easier to say "i felt my life to be in danger" and shoot in the face or chest, than to say I don't remember what happened after the crook killed me. But then again, there are some States where a crook needs to kill someone 3 times before the lock em up.
