Female Employee, 39, Fatally Shot At Domino’s Pizza In San Bernardino

[Ghost in the Machine]

58. "Apparently, this sort of thing is completely acceptable, but taking the guns away isn't." WRONG!!

Cold blooded MURDER is NEVER acceptable, period! I do believe there are acceptable cases of self defense, as are some acceptable cases of Stand Your Ground and/or Castle Doctrine Laws.

I can already tell that you're an anti-gunner, but let's just pretend for a few minutes that you aren't, you have a few guns in the house, and put yourself in this situation:

You're in your home, it's the middle of the night and you hear some people in your house. Suddenly two figures appear at your bedroom doorway and they shoot at you and your husband while you are still laying in bed. Suppose you're hit, but not fatally. Now you hear them heading toward the bedrooms where your daughters are sleeping. You hear them start to scream, but then the screams get muffled out because the home invaders have covered their mouths.

During all this, your husband is able to make it to where he keeps a pistol and manages to conceal it on his person. Meanwhile, the home invaders have tied your daughters up and dragged them to the living room. Now you hear them coming back for you! They're talking about dragging you and your husband out there, making him watch as they rape and kill you and your daughters, then killing him. Would you rather live with the fact that your husband blew them both away when they appeared back in your doorway, or would you rather die knowing your husband had him watch them rape and kill you and your daughters, then he got killed, too?

Look up the case of Dr. William Petit Jr. in Connecticut. He didn't have a gun, but had to watch his wife, 17 y/o daughter and 11 y/o daughter be repeatedly raped, then set on fire while still alive, before he escaped.

I'm sorry, but my family, nor I, will EVER be *victims*, as long as I am able to do something to stop it and keep from becoming another statistic in a Coroner's book.

Which one of YOUR rights are YOU willing to give up, since you seem to take one of MY rights away??
