If you ever dreamed of living in the old west with its paucity of rules on when and where you could draw your gun, it looks like you may get your wish soon in Iowa. Iowa’s legislature overwhelmingly passed the cancer that has spread across the country known as “Stand Your Ground” laws. The main reason for these laws appears to be to kowtow to the gun industry and sell more and more guns in a society already awash in guns.

| There never was an old west like the movies show! The idea of a six gun on every hip is bull$#/+ ! Most people had a rifle of some kind, and very few had revolver! |

"The main reason for these laws appears to be to kowtow to the gun industry and sell more and more guns in a society already awash in guns."
Sick rhetorical blather sickens me.
Aside from that tidbit, it's a deliberate knowing mistatement of the law's purpose.
It's TRUE purpose is to add another layer of legal protection to citizens who are forced to LEGALLY DEFEND THEMSELVES WITH THE DEADLY FORCE OF A GUN against VIOLENT MURDEROUS CRIMINALS.
I honestly believe the libtards are on the criminal's side at times.
That wouldn't bother me so much if we could gaurantee the criminals would only kill the libtards....... ;)
But us adults know that won't happen.

| What utter stupidity! The only way that law condones "Shoot Your Neighbor" is if your neighbor is threatening you with deadly force! |

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| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.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 For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in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 If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal.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) |
