Note at the bottom the PD's spoke person states that the women was lucky to resist and that you should give an armer robber what ever they want, things can be replaced...

Really? He had already shot his gun in the air.  This is exactly why people (who can legally do so) need to have their CCW permit and be ready for anything at any time!

Yea, tell that to the clerk that was shot and killed at the Omaha convenience store a few months ago. Surveillance cameras showed she did everything they told her to do.

Then they killed her.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, WE need to make being a criminal a VERY dangerous profession, not because you can go to jail and be buggerd by Bubba, not that you could get shanked,  but because some citizen may just put you into the ground, defending what is legally and lawfully theirs. Castle doctrine, stand your ground laws would make a scumbucket think twice about holding up a place. Think about it, would  you, as a robber go into a business knowing that if you do something stupid like hold up a place that you could very easily get shot..

Castel doctrine has to be our next legislative priority as a group.  We need to start working with Senator Christensen now and see what we can do.

Huskergun is right, these are the two main ideas that people I talk to and sign up believe we need to do as a group. I think these are the two most important things we can push through next session, but it will take a lot of hard work to get them both done.

Are we going to be proactive or reactive?

I'm intending to get my CCW asap, so I guess I'll be adding "one more" person that has a weapon when it's needed. :)
