Here's were it gets hairy. If i had a legal pistol and was in a stand my ground state wouldnt i be in my right to shoot him for attempted vehicular homicide? Im no threat to him but a gun might make me one. its all dicey and despite yohr warnings the old man was a wreckless danger that could have easily killed me. Who cares if he was packing too. I am not afraid of being shot i am afraid of being ran over. I guess i am a minority here but i f@ck him for trying to kill me by being a lazy f@ck who couldnt be bothered tp follow the law or look at what he was doing. I know in this forum my rage is not supported. Thats my 2 cents.
A would doubt that a jury in a stand your ground case would find not guilty in that senario. I also doubt it would be tried as one. Stand your ground is not as easy to prove as some may think. There is a woman here that was being beaten that fired a warning shot and could not prove stand your ground. She's in the can.
That right to carry also has a huge responsibility. Hand guns have the sole purpose to kill. If you reach for it you must know at that moment you will draw, fire and kill another. Any hesitation and you're dead.
Bad decision and you kill another. There are those in jail for making that choice. Others are six feet under. 99.9% of the time the proper choice is not to draw. Getting cut off does not give one the right to shoot.
Your "I'm not afraid" qoute makes me chuckle. I'm not either. I've just lived long enough to know how to survive. I was an inner city kid and saw gun play very very early in life. Your young and full of piss and vinegar, I was too.
Just don't make any snap decisions that will screw up the rest of your life.
Too much to enjoy to throw away in a second.
