On the other hand, once bullets start flying from the house, officers have a right to fire back. (pretty sure about that) They don't have to know at that point why someone is shooting or who.

Anyway, if you decide to start shooting people outside your house breaking in, and not sure who they are, be sure you have good cover first.

6 dead and 8 in hospital after they were attacked in an Australian shopping center. Take away the guns! The nut case did it with a knife and Australia has strict gun control laws. Take away the guns, that will stop this senseless violence.

He can’t kill 57 from a Vegas hotel window a quarter mile away with a knife.

No one said ever, all violence ends with gun bans or more limited access.. AFAIK. No one with any sense anyway.

Lefties say it all the time when they blame the guns.

This one is going to SCOTUS

Quote:
Litigation against gunmakers is almost always tossed out because of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, or PLCAA, a 2005 federal law that protects gunmakers from being held liable for crimes committed with their products.

But the decision handed down last month shows that Mexico’s case differs from earlier lawsuits in two important respects: the violations that the country has accused gunmakers of committing, and the overwhelming amount of evidence it has to support its allegations.

PLCAA still permits suits that allege that gunmakers violated state or federal laws related to the marketing or sale of firearms.

Mexico has accused the gunmakers — including Glock, Smith & Wesson, and Colt — of violating laws that are explicitly firearm-related, such as exporting guns without a license. The country alleges that those violations have led to the smuggling of hundreds of thousands of firearms across the border every year, causing violence in Mexico to soar.

The defendants have denied the allegations and blamed Mexico’s violence on inadequate law enforcement. Glock and Smith & Wesson did not respond to requests for comment. A representative for Colt said that the company does not comment on pending litigation.

Mexico may not have standing in USA court. In any case it is all Mexico's fault for refusing to pass rational gun control laws!

Michigan LDS church shooter...former US Marine.

Florida beach bar shooter...former US Marine.

Semper Fi?

Really?

Not always...

I suspect we'll learn they both have untreated PTSD and begged for but never got needed help.

It's a damned shame how we treat our veterans.

Have no idea, but one IED produces a lot of blunt force trauma all through the brain. I imagine it is like if you had a lot of bones broken, bur as if they weren't set in the right position. So, the brain heals with all kinds of internal damage. So, you're f....d up
