I wonder if any government has worked out the difference in cost between one bullet and a funeral compared to a trial and jail time for the victim?

Re: Another one bites the dust
Jay, even in LE we use the term suspect to describe the perpetrator. It's when you have evidence, like in this story and they say "alleged" suspect that makes me shake my head. I know why they do it, but we give suspects to many considerations.

Re: Another one bites the dust
Anyone thats lives in a place where they would actually throw you in jail and charge you for murder doing what that poor women did to that BAD MAN! is nuts. Get out of there

Re: Another one bites the dust
Once again, the ignorance of some is just overwhelming. In any local, in CALIFORNIA (LEARN TO SPELL), (there are none where even handguns are banned), if someone is kicking down your door, you are well within your rights to defend yourself. And since a normal person would be in fear of their life, you can use anything up to and including deadly force. You may later face a civil action, but the odds are no greater here than anywhere else in this country.Alan Wood wrote:Man I wish I could afford to move out of Kalicornia.

Re: Another one bites the dust
Au contraire, my friend, the odds are much greater in CA, NY, NJ, & MA... than say in WY, MT, TX or FL. In any of these you may still be arrested, booked and held pending an investigation... but charged... possibly, no. But, I feel much better about my chances of only being interrogated in TX, rather than being booked (charged) in CA. Actually a much clearer explanation of the state of CA law on the subject and why it's so confusing is contained in a review by the CPRA in FLORIDA'S NEW "CASTLE LAW" COMPARED TO THE LAW IN CALIFORNIA by By Gerald Upholt - Manager of Governmental Affairs. Please note ¶4, where it sez:jeepnik wrote:Once again, the ignorance of some is just overwhelming.

Re: spelling, although a political statement that should, according to forum rules, be avoided in this forum... Kalifornia is, yes, a derogatory spelling; and, although Alan Wood doesn't list his locale, if a CA resident, I'd feel less inclined to chastise him over that choice. Why if a fellow Texan was to use a derogatory spelling (as if one existed), of Texas, I'd be less than critical of his choice. I MIGHT PM him and use a few choice words of my own... but.... oh, never-mind. (just yanking yer chain!In California, that part of the law that is contained in the statutes, principally in the State Civil and Penal Codes, is not very comprehensive. Most of it was enacted in the late 1800's and early 1900's. The majority of current California law in the area of defense is contained in Case Law from numerous different court decisions.

Re: Another one bites the dust
I too get tired of "experts" explaining how life is in CA especially when they live in one of the more backward states! The only thing about CA is our restrictive gun laws. And remember, what happens here will soon happen where you are (watch for lead bans in your state too, Texass, Orygun, New Jerky, etc).

Quote from the story:
So the perp had a record. Imagine that! Well, the record is now closed. Someone should have told him that some people don't like it when you break into their home, and may fight back."Unfortunately our suspect wasn't a stranger to this type of behavior, but we still aren't clear as to why he targeted this specific house - and whether he was working a lone."
A man's admiration for absolute government is proportionate to the contempt he feels for those around him.

Re: Another one bites the dust
The only think I would have done differently personally - would be to wait for the door to come open - then I'd open up on the b*st*rd. But I think the fact that the shooter was a lady, she should be given extra consideration - she probably wasn't confident enough to wait to see if the door was going to hold. I'd want my wife to do the same thing!

great bodily injury within his or her residence shall be presumed to
have held a reasonable fear of imminent peril of death or great
bodily injury to self, family, or a member of the household when that
force is used against another person, not a member of the family or

forcibly entered the residence and the person using the force knew or

Re: Another one bites the dust
Note that this specifies that the intruder is already in the residence when force is applied. Hence shooting through the door while the intended intruder is outside kicking the door down is dicey at best. Basically California is a the victim must retreat state.jkbrea wrote:From the California Penal Code:

Re: Another one bites the dust
Sorry friend, we do not have to retreat. The places that have that little bit of niceness tell you you must retreat until no further retreat is possible. Now, the bit I read said nothing about shooting through the door. And kicking in the door pretty much is forcible entry.Alan Wood wrote:Note that this specifies that the intruder is already in the residence when force is applied.

Re: Another one bites the dust
Having worked in law enforcement in Southern California, attending numerous lectures and legal updates and receiving them via mail for years after I escaped from CA... all I can say is; you'd better know your local district attorney's views on the subject. Codified law is one thing... case law has modified much of that.

In Kansas, if you shoot to protect your or someone else's life, or to prevent what a reasonable man would think to be "great bodily harm", you CAN NOT be held civilly liable. Period. This is all a part of the Ks. Personal and family protection act. In Kalifornia, his "baby mama" will hire a sheister lawyer who will claim he touch another boy's dingus at camp when he was ten, and you shot him for being a fag. Then, they'll try you for a hate crime, take all you have, all you're likely to EVER have, and send you off to be buttraped by a bunch of Mongoloids who LOVE Kalifornia.

Re: Another one bites the dust
How'd a nice pleasant post on another scumbag meeting his well-deserved fate break down into a state-insult fest?
Seriously guys - we are all brothers. Don't let the anti's pit us against one another. Yes, there are differences between the states, and some of the states have more draconian gun laws than any of us would like to see. Some gentle ribbing isn't going to hurt anyone, but let's keep it to that and remember who's side we are all on!

Last year, here in Sacramento, a burglar was shot by a homeowner with a .22 rifle as he was running down the street to jump in the getaway car. The bad guy was hit in the butt a couple of times and the city DA wanted to prosecute the HOMEOWNER for attempted homicide. Well...when the word went out that this poor guy had been robbed 4 times with no result from the cops, public opinion swung things his way. The DA decided that his fat-cat career was more important than going after a guy who was fed up with the criminals being pampered by the justice system.
Too bad he didn't use a larger bore rifle....we'd be saving some taxpayer dollars.
Some people just need a sympathetic pat on the head.....with a hammer. Repeatedly.
