Most people will at least understand the justification of deadly force to protect themselves or their family.. but many don't for some reason
Lugnut,
From talking to the sheeple in this state, using the word MOST is a stretch...

Lugnut,

Maybe you're right... but if you ask someone if they would take some else's life if it was required to live... I think many would. Until you mention firearms maybe. Certainly most would do what it takes to protect their kids/loved ones. It's basic logic to me... not even a second thought.
Maybe we should just let them ban all guns in this sorry ass excuse of a state. That way in ten years when the crime and murder rate hasn’t gone down they’ll be forced to admit that blaming an inanimate object isn’t the way to go. God I can’t wait to move out of this crap hole. I’m ashamed to say I grew up here. North Carolina here I come baby!
You are right Bruce. No matter what you do there will always be CRAZY people in society. You can ban everything and people will still get murdered...
Just moments ago, on Channel Five News, the cow, Rondele Richards, made the statement during the story that if the AWB hadn't been allowed to expire, the murdering non-representative of responsible gun owners (my poetic license) wouldn't have been able to buy ammo for his "assault rifle".
New Bedford Shooter Owned Assault Weapons Legally
Mayor Furious

[BOSTON -- The man who police said went on a shooting rampage at a New Bedford strip club early Tuesday was not doing anything illegal by possessing the high-powered guns he had, authorities said.
Scott C. Medeiros did nothing illegal in purchasing or possessing either the body armor or a powerful M-16 counterpart he had, according to authorities in his hometown.
Freetown Police Chief Carlton Abbott said Medeiros possessed proper, up-to-date firearms licenses. He said Medeiros has had Class A and Class B firearms licenses since 1991, which would allow him to “walk into any gun shop” and purchase an AR-15.
Abbott said when Medeiros applied for his gun licenses 15 years ago, he said was working as a route manager for a local business and was transporting large amounts of money. Abbott did not have specific information on the company. He said other than a few motor vehicle violations, Medeiros had no police record of any kind.
The chief said people who knew him described Medeiros "as an easy going person."
The mayor of New Bedford said he was outraged that the shooter had military-grade firepower.
Mayor Scott Lang said in a news conference Tuesday, “The idea that anybody is walking around in America with a weapon intended for the military is unrealistic.”
New Bedford police Capt. Richard Spirlet said the shooter walked into the Foxy Lady about 2:30 a.m. Tuesday wearing body armor and carrying with a high-powered rifle and a semiautomatic weapon.
One of the weapons was described as an AR-15 or M-16. The AR-15 is a semiautomatic weapon available to civilians. The M-16 is used by the military.
Lang said, “It doesn’t make sense. This will penetrate through anything.”

Murder is murder is murder. Its been around since Cain and Able.
Oh oh! Biblical reference. Aren't those banned too?
Did you notice how one individual said that people don't hunt with AK's or AR's. The second amendment was not written with hunters in mind! I also noticed how one sided the news report was. They don't even allow a fair and bias report on the issue. Why the hell wasn't anyone from GOAL on the tube? What the hell am I sending checks out for?
