makes sense, therefore it will not pass.

If pointing a weapon would make a person reconsider their current course of action and hopefully prevent me from shooting them, I'm all for it.

I'm sure the Left will throw a fit, after all, they were predicting daily OK Corral scenarios back in the mid 90's

The Governor hasn't said whether she would sign it

That's ****ing stupid. Democrats....

If I can stop a perp by pointing, that seems more logical to me than stopping him by shooting. The point is to make them stop; right?

 

[okierider]

SO if I pull my gun and the hostile stops I still have to kill/shoot him!!! Surely both sides of the isle will see that this law needs passed!

Failed last year. Hopefully makes it through this year.

Statistically, I've read that 99% of the time a gun is used to stop a crime, it is brandished, not shot. Sorry, this was a few years ago and I don't have the article.

I had two democrats try to rob me at a car wash one night, the sight of my pistol being out (did not point) sent them scurrying. LEO told me that there had been 6 armed robberies at car wash's in the past month.
