What utter poppycock.
She blames McGlockton's death on SYG, yet SYG did not prevent the correct verdict. Indeed, SYG did not prevent the shooter from coming to trial.
In an inept burst of emotionalism, she defeats her own argument. |

This was never a syg case. The shooter fired as the victim walked away.
SYG laws only mean you're NOT under an obligation to retreat. It does not mean you can simply stand where you are and unjustifiably shoot someone as he leaves. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
