| Pity that Mr. Williamson felt he had to "cherry pick" his examples but then failed to recognize there's no incumbency upon the threatened to determine if the weapon used is lethal. Self-defense, or defense of family or others "in extremis" isn't "vigilantism". Perhaps Mr. Williamson can persuade the gang bangers and gun-using drug peddlers/users not to randomly shoot their victims and be content with money. But until that miracle happens, legally armed citizens will continue to defend themselves and theirs with lethal force if its thrust upon them. |

| Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American... The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state government, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people. — Tench Coxe, Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788. |
