We obviously need to ban greedy children.

For the children, of course...

And your point is..................................................What?

I have the faintest idea what you mean.

That's basically what this boils down to.

Did you even read the article you posted?

I posted the excerpt because it seemed no one else read that far.

Her father threatened her and she killed him. Wouldn't that qualify as "Stand Your Ground"?

at the very least, it's self defense. As far as I know, NY has no SYG laws so that point is moot.

..the answer is rather obvious. Of course, that requires you to actually read and educate yourself on the subject and I'm well aware that is asking a lot of you....

Please share your "better understanding" of the law and give your opinion. She was threatened by her father and killed him. Would that qualify as "Stand Your Ground"?

It is inside the home, that alone makes SYG irrelevant. To answer your question, it depends on what the detailed evidence showed based on the "reasonable man" standard.

There is no evidence she was threatened. She used a RIFLE which is not something easily or usually carried on one's person for self-defense purposes. Which means she would have had to leave the situation, get the rifle, then deliberately point it at him and pull the trigger. Not a SYG situation which is obvious to anyone with a luke warm education on the topic.




Think.

Maybe you guys on the anti-gun side , some of them seem to think there should be some sort of comment when making a post like this.

It's a news item shared for comment or discussion. If you have nothing to add please refrain from disrupting the thread.

...by properly imitating the thread you started with some commentary. You don't walk up to a group at a party, drop a newspaper article at their feet and walk away do you? Well, maybe you do and I shouldn't expect better I guess...

for becoming a parent.

When you look at the societal harm caused by irresponsible, untrained, and generally unfit people being allowed to reproduce (sometimes as many as *8* per gestation!) it becomes obvious that unlicensed reproduction is not something we can allow to continue.

The foundation for an interesting debate.
