I went to this newslink fully expecting to see good reason to castigate the prosecutors.
I found a guy in the middle of a home invasion, who had the good fortune of seeing the invaders change their minds and run away. He then retrieved a Glock, ran outside and started shooting at their backs.
Sorry, pal, you stepped way over the line, see if the prosecutors will be reasonable about cutting a deal.
The one with no business drawing wages from the taxpayers is the judge. Prosecution asks for $75k bail. Defense asks for $1k. Judge refuses to listen to any arguments on the subject, says everybody on gun charges gets $100k in his courtroom, facts don't matter because he heard the word "gun". |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
