If you shoot someone, you better expect to be questioned significantly for your actions. Anything less would be absurd. I, and law enforement, should just take your word for it that you absolutely HAD to shoot someone? Nonsense.

It should be like that. becuase if it WAS like that everywhere criminals would think twice, thrice, and more before commiting a crime.
I find it amazing that people are so eager to make it harder to defend themselves if need be, I am forced to consider the fact that for some reason you don't think you deserve to live. This is your life we're talking about here, this law is designed to make it so that if some bad guy tries to rape your sister, and you send him to the great thereafter, YOU won't be treated like a criminal!
It really doesn't matter, because ya know what, I don't care that it is ILLEGAL for me to use my firearm to defend YOU. I'd do it anyways. You can keep sticking your head in the sand, and I'll make sure no one interferes with your right to do so
