I'm not arguing the merits of the law. I'm pointing out that chanting "The law is unlawful" while Bubba and his friends have fun with you isn't going to make it much easier to bear. In the end, you simply have to go with with what works in the really real world. In the really real world, you not only have to beat the thugs, but any potential case against you in court as well. Losing one is as bad as the other. The man that prepares for the first, but not the second is as much the idiot as the guy that prepares for neither.

If one does not defend the Constitution then one undermines the basic supreme law of the land. If one section of the Constitution can be but down there is no reason that other freedoms can be taken away. As I said you are correct in the assumption that you will be jailed for protecting yourself and your family as has been done in NY and elsewhere. It still does not make it right or within the law. If I am on a jury I find not guilty - I do not carer what the law says if it violates the Constitution there is no law, I find not guilty.
