"Removing to duty to retreat from our current self defense laws would create a wild west, I’ve even been told that by some people."
Really? REALLY? You've been TOLD that by some people?
First, you need to consider the politics and ideology of the people telling you that. Then, fact check to ascertain whether or not they're telling you the truth.
There is NO evidence of any "wild west" environs resulting from SYG laws. It is a hot-button term used to stoke people's fears and emotions.
In fact, any increase in homicides in states with SYG are mostly JUSTIFIED shootings.
But to anti-gun folks, there IS no justification for shooting someone, which is ironclad proof that they live in a fantasy bubble. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
