Warning shots are illegal

20 years for a warning shot. Press reports she tried to use ‘stand your ground’ laws as a defense.

    Yeah, if you fire a gun toward children when you can’t convince a jury that you felt your life was in danger you’ll get 20 years.

    And hooking up with the abusive husband during the trial and getting re-arrested for domestic assault won’t help your case either.

    Actually I’m pretty sure I read that all off your blog. Maybe it was Sebastian’s PAGunBlog… not sure. Long days lately.

    Reading the charging document, she was the aggressor. She left the house, to safety, then came back in the house and this is when the “warning” shot was fired. There is more to this story than the headline.

  3. Jake Says:

    Yeah, it appears that it wasn’t the “warning shot” that caused the (legal) problem but the fact that she went back into the house after leaving. The fact that there were two children in the room she fired into was just icing on the cake.

    Sounds more like a “threatening shot” than a “warning shot.”

    This is going to make the liberals dizzy–the state attorney being accused of “racism” by Corrine Brown, yet it’s the same prosecutor who will be prosecuting George Zimmerman, a “white-hispanic” for shooting Trayvon Martin.

    The lesson here is simple, if you fire a warning shot, you tell the police you fired at him & missed.

    Confine your prayers to heaven and your gunfire to Earth.

    Warning shots are for the movies only. It is deadly force, period.

    Might as well shoot what needs to be hit and be done with it.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
