More progressive idiocy. After you’re dead you can shoot back.

Not necessarily but we probably should assume so Justin Case.

Yep - far more fair to allow yourself to be killed so the bad guy gets treated fairly...wonder how they would put it into practice under real world conditions....

Self defense is racist

Clearly, because of disparate outcomes. Call the DOJ.

Abortion is illegal because it denies the baby the right to a fair trial.

If you have a minute, check out the comments section at the bottom of the article.

There are some very intelligent responses to this BS that a citizen has a responsibility to make sure that there is due process for an aggressive criminal in a situation of defending one's life.

I live in a rural area, with only a few sheriff’s deputies to patrol hundreds of square miles. Law enforcement officers only clean up the aftereffects of any crime. Not complaining, it’s just the way it is. That being said, any criminal thug stupid enough to break into my home is only entitled to the business end of my gun and its appropriate ammunition. Thank you, Texas Castle Doctrine.

Even before this was made state law, a former county sheriff would let the rural residents know his office could not get to anyone in time to stop a crime. He said shoot first and drag the body inside. He may have been law enforcement, but he was a realist first and foremost.

Anti-Trump illegal aliens terrorize young American woman in her car: they hit, kick, spit, & vandalize her car. She sits petrified wondering whether her windows will hold or she will be ripped to pieces by the mob. 4/28/16

ericans have no legal right to shoot a violent attacker because it violates the criminal’s right to a fair trial!

If a violent criminal attacks me I do not want him to have a fair trial. I want him dead via 100 grains of lead moving at 1475 feet per second.
