  • One must be careful.  For instance, in the scenario the man in the video described, he unholstered and pointed his weapon at at least one of the men before any of the men physically assaulted, brandished their own weapons, or did anything which would have objectively put the man in the video in immediate fear of grave bodily harm.  Now, depending on which State this scenario occurs, there could have been a variety of different legal outcomes.  For example, in the State in which I reside, if I had acted in this manner under the same circumstance, I could have been charged with a crime, because there mere act of unholstering a pistol and pointing it in in a general direction is considered the use of a deadly weapon, which can happen only after I am objectively in a state of fear of my--or others in my immediate vicinity--immediate and grave bodily harm.  The acts of the vagrants in this scenario would not have risen to that level.  Now, does that mean I agree with that, and more importantly, disagree with the actions this man took to ward off an obvious threat?  Of course not.  But unfortunately, the laws in many States are not written in your favor, but instead in the favor of criminals. 

    Just something to think about. Or rather, know the laws of your State, and understand that said laws can, and do, change from State to State.

    In my state full of ultra liberal, gun rights haters, you’d be charged with menacing and making terroristic threats.  CPS could go to your home and take your children, even if the incident occurred elsewhere and didn’t involve your children.

  • Key point!

    "We need to be prepared at all times".

    Being confronted with overwhelming force is a common occurrence.

    Carrying our Rosaries and guns daily for self protection is a necessity.  
    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi
