LR191 Castle Doctrine Interim Study - introduced by Sen. Christensen May 18th

<< < (4/9) > >>

SBarry:
The power of a few girly-men, dope smokers and man hating feminists has gotten out of hand. Can anyone tell me why these articles are written by such? Are there no "men" working for newspapers now-a-days? Reading that made my blood pressure rise a little, but then I remembered it came from a second rate newspaper with poor circulation, and realized this clown was the only one who would work for them at such low pay.

"Laws that give criminal and civil immunity strip decision making from judges and prosecutors, Malte said. They allow an alleged victim to play the role of police officer, prosecutor, judge and executioner, opponents say."

This is what really set me off, referring to the "alleged" victim becoming police, procecuter, judge, and executioner, like it was a bad thing. What about jury? I'd trust a one man jury who knew all the facts more than a cop who made up "facts", a prosecutor with an agenda, or a judge eyeing a higher court seat.

I commented on that article.  I did the one that starts with, "There is a whole lot of dumb in this comment section" or something like that, towards the bottom.

Here's a thought...don't break into people's houses, you don't have to worry about being shot.  Novel idea, I know, but it just might work.

I saw the article today and wasn't surprised at the biased headline.  The article itself did seem to be fairly balanced, though.

Dtrain323i:
We need to work to get rid of the "make my day" nomenclature thats being attached to this. that is going to be a cause of controversy

bkoenig:
Agreed, I think most rational people would support it if it's explained properly without being tagged with "make my day" or "shoot the burglar" titles.
