What part of the story here thus far reported and available to us clearly indicates the victim is in the ‘mugger/rapist/murderer/burgler/etc.’ category?

I am all in favor of being able to protect oneself with deadly force when the situation warrants. If the reports thus far are to be believed, loud music isn’t life threatening. Sorry, don’t buy it. I’m 2A, but I am not stupid, no matter what you think.

I find it interesting that you see yourself in my comment. It was not directed at either you, nor particularly at the the gent that shot this man. Neither was it an accusation against the victim of the shooting.

You obviously missed the main point of my comment - what you think/feel doesn’t matter much. The facts indicate that your fears about people shooting people just because they have a gun are unfounded. Far less than 1% of concealed carry holders are charged/convicted of a crime committed with their gun. Indeed, the policemen are arrested and convicted at higher rates than those with concealed weapons permits.

I find the fact that you are “all in favor of being able to protect oneself with deadly force” while at the same time stating that people with guns should not be trusted is a bunch of horse pucky. Are you the only one that can be trusted to use a firearm appropriately? Who make you God?

You are NOT a second ammendment supporter, otherwise you would not give the liberals ammunition to suppress your rights.
