And far as your last question, yes, I do think whoever needs more than ten rounds to shoot something is going way to far unless they're in a law officer or in a war zone. |
You still have not shown or posted the Stand Your Ground law as it is written.
I live in West Virginia and we have the same law here.
The very fact that you stated that if you just feel threatened you can shoot someone is proof that you haven't read the law.
The law states that if you REASONABLY fear death or bodily harm and everything about the situation backs up your claim of self defense then no charges will be filed against you.
