20. the burden of proof

Wed Feb 8, 2012, 03:28 PM

Feb 2012

should always be on the state (crown for our Canadian readers). Otherwise you are charged with murdering the guy that meant you harm. Under that system, a home invasion or other violent attack either becomes physical harm to you or possibly going to prison and getting sued. Maybe it has never happened in WI, but it does not mean it will not happen.

The issue of concealed carry has been around before ALEC. My view is that if there is no demonstrable benefit to society (which does not count Borkesque claims of moral harm) a restriction should not exist.
