Re: Course aims to put guns in safe hands
"Stand Your Ground" really just means that you have no duty to flee before using force, IF force is justified. Other changes come in with that, and Castle Doctrine includes additional presumptions (and in PA, is applied to occupied cars, too).
The important thing to know, the thing that I emphasize in my 4 hour classes on this, is that you NEVER get "permission" to kill another person. You just get excused, sometimes. If you and your family can survive without pulling the trigger, then don't pull the trigger. You can't take those bullets back, you could be shooting your wife's idiot brother who thought it would be funny to climb in the window. Sometimes you have to shoot, but it's not like a traffic ticket where "if you speed, the cop gives you a ticket". There's no rule "if you break in, you get shot". Maybe there should be, but there isn't. It's just a shift in the burden of proof, it's kind of subtle, in practice.
Besides, ammo is expensive and hard to find these days. It's even worse in prison.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com
