A dispute over a lost dog that escalated into a shooting that injured one person Friday night has been determined an act of self-defense.

According to a release, prior to the shooting, William Christman, 28, of Ladson, S.C., was with a group of hunters who were looking for a hunting dog using a GPS device. The device had indicated the area of Bet Lane as the last location of the dog. |

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 |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
