Intruder shot, killed after kicking in door, charging occupant with a knife

If she had a permit to carry, she could defend herself in a Kroger parking lot as well.

I like it, need permission from the state to defend yourself.

Thank you govt for granting me the right to self defense. All hail our benevolent rulers

 

[luthervol]

You forgot your blue font.

Why would I put it in blue font?
I fully support that right.

 

[luthervol]

Nope. But you do need permission to carry a concealed weapon.
Kind of like you think you need permission from the state to treat your ear infection.

So you believe in constitutional carry?

 

[luthervol]

Don't mention it. Glad to be of service.

 

[luthervol]

So you believe in constitutional carry?

I believe it is constitutional to grant permits allowing some to carry.

 

[utvolpj]

I believe it is constitutional to grant permits allowing some to carry.

So you believe the right to self defense comes from govt. That's completely idiotic and pathetic

That is in no way what I said. That assertion is what is truly idiotic and pathetic.

So you believe people should be able to carry a gun for self defense without a permit? If not then that's exactly what you said

 

[0nelilreb]

Personally I'm glad she had a gun in her house and was able to defend herself. That's precisely why I so fervently support the right of gun ownership for home defense and protection.

... but ?

Does Luther have posts of any other variety when it involves guns?

 

[luthervol]

I do not. Nor do I believe they should be allowed to carry anthrax, a grenade, a mini nuke or a samurai sword for self defense.

You knew when you typed this it was gonna stir up the hornets. So here's my contribution:

these are idiotic positions
I couldn't drive my son to the hospital to save his life because I don't have a license to drive my car even though I know how to drive and have driven for decades.

The MD couldn't save my dad's life at the restaurant because she had just finished residency but was waiting on her license to practice to arrive in the mail.

I couldn't move the school bus the motorcyclist was trapped under even though he was burning because I don't have a CDL.

I'm sorry I can't give you food even though you haven't eaten in 5 days but I don't have my permit to serve from my taco truck, yet.

These are all privileges; not constitutional rights. A child can see how asinine the positions are.

 

[luthervol]

Once again. It is in no way what I said. You repeatedly saying it is changes nothing.

 

[McDad]

I do not. Nor do I believe they should be allowed to carry anthrax, a grenade, a mini nuke or a samurai sword for self defense.

Samurai swords for self defense would be bad ass. The other options are intentionally absurd.

 

[southgatevol]

If that isn't what you said, then who but the government would grant permits? Which then would allow self defense.

Fortunately, some states are wising up and eliminating this.

 

[volfanhill]

It might be the best self defense weapon. I mean whose screwing around with anyone whose carting a samurai sword around. You give that person space.

Those are all idiotic positions and not at all like requiring a permit to carry.
In every instance I would expect the person to make the better choice. If the lady in the Kroger parking lot was attacked while illegally carrying, I would expect her to defend herself and then deal with any possible consequences.
But yes, you need a license to drive.
An MD needs a license to practice.
A bus driver needs a special license.
A restaurant needs a permit.

All of those are rational and reasonable ways of helping society function more smoothly.

dang right, you do. Betcha a dozen donuts a samurai sword strapped to someone's hip for all the world to see is a better deterrent than a concealed pistol.

 

[luthervol]

One man's absurdity is another man's passion. Who gets to say what is absurd?
I think it's absurd to own 20 guns. Some on here think it is really cool.

 

[luthervol]

If that isn't what you said, then who but the government would grant permits? Which then would allow self defense.

The government grants the permits.

 

[utvolpj]

I do not. Nor do I believe they should be allowed to carry anthrax, a grenade, a mini nuke or a samurai sword for self defense.

Again you validate my post. You believe the govt should make these decisions for people. It's a childlike way of thinking

 

[NorthDallas40]

I fully support that right.

Of course you do. From reading the other posts apparently I’m not the only skeptical one. But I’m sure it’s all of us not just you.
