I don't think the word "victim" means what you think it means.
"Police: Charges expected against victim... Officers with the Boiling Spring Lakes Police Department responded to a shooting at 10:05 p.m. Friday in the area of Bet Lane and New Hanover Road, where they found a victim suffering from a gunshot wound... Stephens was transported to New Hanover Regional Medical Center where he was treated and later released. The release stated that criminal charges are expected in the near future against Stephens." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
