Can you imagine anything so stupid as thinking you can defend yourself with a plastic gun? she moved away, she is someone else’s problem now.

I liked this exchange: “Why did you shoot him 10 times?” Response: “That’s all the ammo I had!”

Just today leaving the office, I walked past a kid that was probably 12 years-old and he was twirling around what was obviously a toy gun, because it had a orange plastic band on the end of the barrel. I told the kid, “hey, be really careful... you don’t want to get shot by a cop!”.

The kid immediately threw the gun down on a snowbank, being kinda a wiseass about it.

Only one shot, while falling down, and he still managed to put the perp six feet under.

That’s some good shootin’ pardner!

I do SO love a happy ending.

John Bernard Books: Sometimes it isn’t being fast that counts, or even accurate; but willing. Most men will draw a breath or blink an eye before they shoot. I won’t.

>>>if need be, defend themselves with use of a baseball bat.<<<

Should I assume that they know that “arms” as referenced in the Second Amendment would include that same Baseball Bat?

Memo to thug: Do not take a fake gun to a real gunfight when the victim has live ammo.

Well, it may have been a fake gun, but the robber was also wrestling with him, and the intended victim was pushed over backward. So I think he had a right to defend himself even if the robber hadn’t had a fake gun.

The average young man can beat the average 67 year old man to death with just his fists. Deadly force is justified.
