I can honestly say, you would need to be a cultural anthropologist to understand “civilization in Philadelphia”.
I say this because I worked and lived in this hell hole for 35 years.
Here is a good example. With this FLA loophole BS.
There is a councilmen here who for the third time is trying to write gun laws. He stands in front of the cameras, says to anyone who is watching, yes i know its illegal for me to write gun laws, and they have to be written at the state level. His constituents who are paying him hear this, hear how he is wasting his time and their money, yet he still has his job.

Next step is we start from scratch in 2011. Just like we did in 2009, 2007, and 2005. We have a friendly house and gov now, but we still have questionable repubs in the senate that could give us grief.

Votes yes, time no.
The bill will have to be introduced next year.

I think this should be re-introduced as HB1 on the first day of the new Assembly. It should get passed and be sitting on Tom’s desk so he can sign it the day he takes office. A slap in the fact to Rendell.

My fathers attorney told me forty years ago to always keep two weapons loaded, not necessarily hot loaded, round in the chamber, but loaded in my home because this makes a “safe retreat” impossible.
You cannot retreat from your home knowing there is a loaded shotgun available to the intruder.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

"You cannot retreat from your home knowing there is a loaded shotgun available to the intruder."
Not needed in Pennsylvania. We have Castle Doctrine for inside the home. This new law would expand those same laws to outside the home. In other words, if you were out on the street and were in danger for your life and had an opportunity to retreat you wouldn't have to. You can stand your ground outside of your home.
The most important part of the bill IMO is cutting off the possible civil jeopardy you might be in. Just about every time these shootings are deemd justified, but the "vicitims" wonderful family can still go after you in civil court. With this law, if the shooting was deemed justified, then the family can't go after you in civil court.

Not talking about today. Most states did not have Castle Law forty years ago.
