It's like people don't understand how the SYG and self defense laws make it more difficult dkf Apr 2012 #76
Sure, he couldn't be immediately arrested. sudopod Apr 2012 #78

One Is Invited To Co-Operate, Ma'am, And One Is Not The Magistrate Apr 2012 #90
If he was invited why wasn't he with them instead of watching from a distance? dkf Apr 2012 #91
The Actual Wording, Ma'am, Is 'Watched From Nearby' The Magistrate Apr 2012 #92

Well... after reading that post, I partially agree with you. It's not TOTALLY about guns. 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #31
