The limitation on citizen use of arms to defend persons and property is not a moral quibble but rather concern about the consequences to citizens resulting from Local political officers (prosecutors, police, judges and other politically motivated officers of the law)who are acting in concert with the attacking mobs.
We need legislation effectively revoking any power in local law enforcement or administration to sanction use of arms by citizens in response to the threat of mob action.
That may come in time, but if you wait for politicians to give you permission to defend your community from unchecked arson rioters, you will watch it burn down while doing nothing.
Remember Sowell: It’s about what YOU do.
And remember too, shotguns are effective way past molotov cocktail throwing range. Even when fired just one time from deep shadows.
Yeah, well good luck getting that passed. This is how they have chosen to pursue gun control: "OK, so we can't stop you from owning firearms - but if you ever dare to defend yourself with one..."
