No. The fewer restrictions on rights the better.

^^so guns batted .500 in that story. i guess the old woman who was raped and then executed with a gun doesn't matter? just a little blood spilled on the tree of freedom, right?

If guns batted .500, your point is equally invalid.

3/12/2016 8:48:56 PM

right? it's the 69 year old woman's fault she didn't have a gun for self protection.

It tells you that the anti-gun nuts are desperate to validate their feelings about guns with anecdotal news links in an echo-chamber. (Because actual statistics show that gun violence has been on a downward trend for several years).

Quote :

"SYLVANIA, Ala. — Authorities in DeKalb County, Alabama say they have arrested a man and charged him with shooting a 16-year-old boy, who was reportedly part of a group of teens that were covering the yard of a nearby house with toilet paper. Sheriff Jimmy Harris says the incident happened on Saturday in the Sylvania community. The 16-year-old was shot in the hip while sitting in his car, and rushed to Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga. Harris says 64-year-old Ronnie Lee Neeley faces charges that include two counts of menacing, one count each of discharging a weapon into an occupied vehicle, and second degree assault. Harris says Neeley saw the teens trying to throw rolls of toilet paper on a neighbor's yard, and went out to where the teens were. Harris says at some point Neeley shot the 16-year-old while he was inside a vehicle. Neeley turned himself in on Wednesday. "This is a traumatic incident that could have been tragic had the bullet taken a different path. We are very thankful that the child did not suffer any more injury than he did," Sheriff Harris said."

I'm no lawyer, but how is shooting someone only 2nd degree assault?

11 year old stops home robbery when home alone by using his parents 9mm and shooting the suspect in the leg. The 11 year old then told the news station that the suspect "He started crying, like a little baby" after he shot him in the leg.

What I want to know is why the burglar was trying to steal a hamper full of clothes. Apparently this guy had robbed this house in the past as well.
