But the problem comes when you hear stories like the guy in Texas who saw robbers enter his neighbor's house, called 911, put the phone down, walked over and capped them both. His neighbor was away, his life was not in danger, and he was damn lucky to get acquitted of murder. Some already think that people who keep a loaded weapon for home defense are paranoid or mentally unstable. Do you think that guy helped those of us who want to keep our right to bear arms? "Buddy" is indeed half a word.
Yea we are on the same page. A couple of weeks ago I saw a great tv show on the Castle Doctrine. It was a Dan Rather Reports show. Believe it or not it was very well done. A good piece of reporting I thought. The guy you mention in Texas was a part of it, including the 911 tapes. He did make "us" look bad for sure. In fact he sounded a bit unstable on the tapes. I can't believe he wasn't at least convicted of something.
