Ok first of all my most quoted sentence was not meant that he should have expected a gun not to be loaded. It was meant as sarcasm and in my belief will be used in court by the family to say the kid was just trying to scare.
Yes, every gun should be treated as loaded. But now when the family sues "intent" will be an issue.
Nowhere did I say he was wrong to defend himself. The problem I have is 10 freaking rounds in the man. There is truly no excuse for that whatsoever. You can argue all you want, I defy any man on here to take 5-6 shots in 8 seconds and be standing and alert enough to shoot a gun, on drugs or not. Imagine twice that going through you.
And as far as shooting till the guy is dead to avoid a "lawsuit" or criminal charges. Is ridiculous. We all might as well walk around with guns strapped to our waists and bring back the old Wild West lawlessness menatality.
And I still believe at least in Indy, this will lead to drivers getting capped and it will not be this great "deterrent" everyone says it will be. Hope I am wrong.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
