New law in Florida?

[Petit Prince]

Are you serious? You should be allowed to shoot at people to protect yourself? Just think about it where this leads...

 

You think it's stupid that you have to go to prison if you killed somebody that was trying to kill you. How will you prove that this person tried to kill you if there is no witness. Don't you think this law will be abused for shooting at people or even killing them without any reason?

 

Plus there are many people who might feel threatened and overreact. Just think about the effect this has.

 

I think many people should not be allowed to deal with weapons.

 

In my opinion this law ain't a good idea at all.

no we should sit there and let them kill us and ask them nicely to please stop.....yeah....

 

you gotta protect yourself this law alows that. This law isnt going to make anyone kill anyone or shoot anyone, because when it comes down to it law or no law peopl are going to defend themselves. even if its against teh law most would still shoot their attacker, all it does is allow us not to go ot jail for protecting ourselves.

 

when i get old enough to buy a gun if someone threatens me or my family you better believe your getting shot...law or no law...i have a duty to protet myself and/or my family.

Remind me not to come anywhere near your neighbourhood in that case! I wouldn't want to be shot by accident! :stunned:

[heartswarm]

if that would be enacted (which i doubt), then there'll be lots of dead people in florida :lol:

[mc_squared]

Yes - perhaps coffin manufacturers were lobbying for this to be made law!! :idea2:

[heartswarm]

yeah maybe that's it!

that would be good for the business :)

[mc_squared]

Yes - I reckon I've hit the (coffin) nail on the head!! :P

What makes you so afraid that someone will come and threaten you or your familiy with a gun? :/

[winnie]

It's the possibility, that everybody in the USA can get a gun easily... I'm glad, that we don't have these problems here, 'cause it's hard to get a gun here.

I have two fists - that's enough for me :-)

Yeah, but he actually said that it is a good thing that you can get a gun so easily. :/

[winnie]

Well... it's a good thing in his opionion, because many "evil" people have a gun. And why? Because everyone can get a gun easily, what everybody in the USA obviously finds good, and so on... it's a vicious circle!

[Petit Prince]

Yes, I agree with you. I don't think it is a good idea that so many people have a gun in America.

It isn't a good idea that ANYONE has a gun in America!!

Something is really fucked up, if you are scared that you might get shot in the city streets, without any obvious reason.I mean if you are going to buy some groceries, or do anything else in a public place, do you really feel the need to "protect" your self all the time.Anybody can say they feel "threatend", and before you know it, bullets are flying all over you.Duh... :rolleyes:

Imo it's a useless, and potentionally dangerous law.

because my city has a very high crime rate, i live in a nice neiborhood but my house has been almost robbed a few times. we've had people shot in our nice neiborhood before because criminals wonder in to rob the nice houses. i doubt ill ever get a gun pulled on me, but i need the right if it is to protect myself.

its not about guns, not at all its about teh criminals. IF YOU take away every damn gun in a the world people will kill each other with anything else. the guy who gets murderd wont be shot, he'll be stabbed or beaten to death instead. it has nothing to do with weapon.

it causes no danger. the danger is already their, its not going to cause anyone to commit a crime. because people who are willing to kill or use a gun already dont care about laws. if im a killer im going to kill if its against the law or not. it boils down to letting us protect ourselves against people who kill.

 

last time a guy was trying to break into my house i grabbed my baseball bat adn called 911, luckily he never got in before the cops showed, but if he did, i doubt my bat would have done much against his gun, thats why next time ill have a ar 15 waiting for him. i doubt that it;ll ever happen again, but its better ot be safe then sorry.

No, I don't agree. I mean it becomes kinda normal for some people to deal with weapens. I know that you can kill somebody otherwise, but it takes more to beat somebody to beat somebody to death or to stab him.

to you maybe. but killing someone is killing someone, if your willing to do with it a gun, most would be more then willing to use something else if no gun was available. guns dont kill people, people kill people. the fact remains teh same, take away teh gun and people will just use something else. guns are not the problem, society and the human race is.

explain more? the person is just attacking or robbing? i take it thats what you mean, like someone raping or just robbing someone. then oh well. i mean if the guy had no intention on killing me just raping me, and i were to shoot him, thats that. he would get whats coming to him. the fact remains teh same this law allows us to protect ourselves. a person robs anotehr person and gets killed for it, then he got whats coming to him.

 

and what are the people sapposed to do, ask the person "kind sir are you trying to kill me or justt rob me?" crying out loud, it doesnt work that way, they have to protect themselves even if the person intention is not to kill someone. I mean when it comes down to it, your not going to have a chance to determine if the person intentions are for killing or not, you must act and do whatever you can to survive and this laws allows that.

Sure you're right that the gun itself doesn't kill anybody. And if someone really wants to kill someone, he'll probably do it without a gun as well.

 

But with a gun you can kill somebody a lot faster and the chance is smaller that this person is able to react or that other people notice what you doing.

It doesn't have to be that the other person intends to rape you or to rob you or whatever. Don't you think there are a lot of people that misjudge the situation? There are people who are very scared without anything happening. There are people who feel threatend by everyone they don't know.

 

For example if there's anyone walking around near your house he could want to rob you or even kill you, so it might be better to react before he does? But maybe he doesn''t intend anything at all...

 

Or people that abuse this law to justify a murder? If the person's killed and there is know witness, how wil be prooved that the killer wasn't threatend?

If there were _such_ actual states in my place, I wouldn't buy a gun. I'd simply move...

True. but their will still be lots of murders without guns. but i guess your right about that part.
