+1. Challenge to all Gungeoneers to support what is truly responsible gun legislation. Hoyt Aug 2013 #19

Amen to support of "responsible" legislation laserhaas Aug 2013 #28

I signed and absolutely support elimination of the SYG laws, but would that have helped rhett o rick Aug 2013 #20

The 2005 SYG law changed the definition of self-defense to essentially SYG. Hoyt Aug 2013 #21

The way I understood it the judge ruled not to include the words in the law rhett o rick Aug 2013 #22

Big fat Internet lie ceonupe Aug 2013 #23

The SYG law changed definition of self-defense. The jury instructions prior to 2005, Hoyt Aug 2013 #24

problem is in this case ceonupe Aug 2013 #25

Zman who trained for fighting three days a week could have ended the thing or Hoyt Aug 2013 #27

And was still so soft the trainer would not allow him into a ring. N/T GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #29

The trainer was just another bigot who lied for Zman. Hoyt Aug 2013 #30

Concur - GZ had a weapon - all he had to do was draw it and say FREEZE! laserhaas Aug 2013 #34

In the trial the reason stated was because of his credit report. N/T GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #36

Counting fights with people, abuse, possible rape, etc., you wonder why the hell people support the Hoyt Aug 2013 #37

What was said in the trial was legal testimony. GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #38

Says those who defend Zman. Actually, the fights and spousal abuse ate documented. Hoyt Aug 2013 #39

And offered him the civilian equivalent? Pelican Aug 2013 #49

It sure is convenient... Pelican Aug 2013 #44

If they are also into guns and support Zman, you can pretty much bet on it. Hoyt Aug 2013 #45

Mr. Hoyt, your presumption (empirical evidence notwithstanding) - is, in essence, bigotry laserhaas Aug 2013 #48

Bias is at play in this case, from the outset. If the roles were askew of what transpired laserhaas Aug 2013 #46

Au contraire 'ceonupe' - your remarks are errant in several instances; laserhaas Aug 2013 #47

Yes, it is possible to initiate a conflict and still claim self-defense. GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #31

You argue this from the State that still has draconian Laws allowing to shoot/kill your wife outside laserhaas Aug 2013 #33

That is the way self defense law is in all states. GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #35

Why? Do you seek a practical application of the draconian? laserhaas Aug 2013 #42

I wanted you to prove it. Such a law is NOT on the books. GreenStormCloud Aug 2013 #43

I find any conversation on the verdict being judicious a pathetic reflection of contemporary America laserhaas Aug 2013 #32

As for the argument of who was on top of whom - that TOO - is BOGUS banter/ hyperbole/ conjecture laserhaas Aug 2013 #40

It is disingenuous to argue GZ had the right to defend himself; after Trayvon Martin defended 1st. laserhaas Aug 2013 #41
