"Shoot first" law - that's what the Brady gun banners perjoratively call the "Stand Your Ground" law passed in Florida and a number of other states this year that eliminate the duty of a law-abiding citizen to retreat in the face of danger before being able to use a firearm. Like any decent person would shoot in the absence of clear and present danger. In Klinkenborg's entire anti-gun jeremiad, he can't come up with ONE scintilla of proof that carrying a gun has made people less safe - or that it has turned America into the Wild West. The reason liberals are losing ground in this country is because they are out of touch with reality.
