After years of arguing back and forth about what's the best firearm for home defense, I came to a startling conclusion:
If you're faced with a perp and manage two shots to the heart and one to the head, you're chances of both stopping them and your surviving the tale soar far above all other options.
The only caveat is that you absolutely MUST be sure the situation meets two standards:
1. Immediate threat to life or limb. This requirement varies from state to state, but is present in most, if not all states. Some (perhaps many?) states also allow citizens to use deadly force while defending their property.
2. No avenue of escape. Sadly, this requirement is often absent under many state laws, as apposed to those states with "stand your ground laws." States without stand your ground laws require you to make a reasonable attempt to escape. I find such laws unbelievably stupid, as it leaves the bad guys free to continue doing what bad guys do, including burning down your home, if that's what they so desire. States with stand your ground and "castle" laws allow you to stand firm against criminal activity, stop the bastards with a gun if you can, and shoot the bastards if you can't stop them. In some states, you can shoot them simply for being in your home illegally. Amazingly, such states tend to have lower rates of home burglaries, thereby helping to keep the criminal element in check.
What I have found is that when people elect local, county, state, and federal officials who hold unswervingly to the United States Constitution, you wind up with a federal government, state government, country government, and local government that respects the Constitution.
Amazing how that works, isn't it?
When people elect anything else, however, their elected officials work hard to erode their Constitutional rights.
It is therefore up to We the People to dive into each and every local "legal" trap and tear it to smithereens, realigning it to match our United States Constitution, "the supreme Law of the Land" to the MAXIMUM extent possible, across all fronts.
When we do that, we will have a healthy country. If we fail to do that, our nation will crumble.
Yes. Saving our country is that simple, folks.
With this in mind, I want you to answer two questions:
Does Hillary Clinton respect and follow the United States Constitution?
Does Donald Trump respect and follow the United States Constitution?
When you can answer these two questions truthfully to yourself, you will have your answer as to who should be the next president.
