(39 posts)... that would disagree with you.
Right now you are at the 'nuh uh' stage of the argument with your fingers stuck in your ears.
The exact same reasoning could be used by any moron in the street to attack any citizen because their personal fear of a car, knife, tool, perception of the person, chemical etc.. etc.. ad naseum... with absolutely no threatening action or reason to perceive a threat.
"He might do it" is not a viable defense as the asshole in this story found out.
All the folks advocating violence against citizens who are acting well within the law are forgetting the reasonableness standard that is applied in self defense situations.
It isn't what you, with your extreme bias against this specific 'threat' but none of the other thousands of potential threats, consider reasonable but what hundreds of years of law and rulings have laid down.
