A gun wasn’t going to help her in this particular situation. Sometimes when someone wants you dead your time is going to be up.

I hope they give this guy a date with Old Sparky

I disagree here. You have the right to defend yourself. Liberals still don't get it about the Heller decision but the American people do. Monica Paul deserved better. Oh yeah - and the liberals in New Jersey abolished the death penalty. Kenneth Druckett had no consequences to fear for murdering his wife.

Old sparky? Hardly. The brilliant people of NJ have seen fit to elect a governor and legislature that outlawed the death penalty. Even if they hadn’t he probably would never have been killed anyway.

nj doesn’t kill murderers who shoot mothers to death in front of their children...

The guy shot her and fled, and seems to have had a friend driving the getaway car. This indicates he was wanting to survive the incident.

He might have been sure he would have successfully shot her, but if NJ was a CCW state he could not have been sure that somebody else in the pool area would not have blown him away shortly thereafter, which would have complicated his plans
