But they were sympathetic to tyrannical laws. People who live in California are slaves.

The two robbers weren't carrying firearms, just knives according to police. Because of that the district attorney's office argued Saleh used unreasonable force.

What's reasonable force? Another knife? Two knives?
You can end up just as dead being stabbed.
A threat to one's life is a threat to one's life, you should not have to match the style of weapon to the attacker, even if by chance you know exactly what the attacker has on him.
Police routinely shoot suspects for pointing a wallet (I thought he had a gun).

Too bad the jury didn’t nullify the gun law and acquit on it too. None of the charges should ever have been filed.
It is a sick society that fails to allow its citizens the right to protect themselves from well armed robbers. That sick society is California and similar states.

Federal law says you have to be 21 to legally own a handgun unless you’re in the military.
Achmed wasn’t 21.
Should we change the law, or give him a special pass?

Kentucky Chuck E. Cheese refuses to serve police officer with firearm
Published August 23, 2015

FoxNews.com

A Kentucky Chuck E. Cheese appears to have taken the kid-friendly chain’s “no guns” policy too far, refusing to serve a police officer who entered the restaurant with a firearm.

But if a cop had been in the same situation then the shoot would have been “justifiable” and so should it be for an armed citizen!!!!!!
