>If you point a gun at someone, tell them to freeze and they continue advancing towards you, then you have reason to fear for your safety.

According to LA law if someone is unlawfully in your home or attempting to unlawfully enter your home you are automatically assumed to hold a reasonable belief that the use of deadly force is necessary to prevent unlawful entry or to compel an unlawful intruder to leave the premises, period. Whether they are advancing or not. Whether they are armed or not. Even if they are a 105 year old woman and you are a Navy SEAL. The only exception is if you're running a crack den or meth lab.

How has this gone on this long without you actually reading the law you're talking about?

IANAL, but I used to hear stories where if a burglar enters your home through a window and you shoot him as he is crawling in, then you should pull the dead body into the room rather than let it fall back outside. I'm sure this is BS, but maybe in the past, trespassing inside your home is different than trespassing in your yard, so to speak. Maybe there is a shread of truth to this scenario even today. Not that I would avocate lying or tampering with evidence. But honest people get caught up in an imperfect system every day.

LA law says that anyone either unlawfully inside your home or attempting to unlawfully enter your home (or car of place of business) can be killed by someone lawfully inside the home, period. The law is unambiguous, Brain doesn't know what he's talking abut.

I said MORE guns doesn't equal less crime and I have more than proved that point with support of the Federal government.

Ya havent proved jackschit! More guns DO equal less crime, which I JUST proved to you, but you're too goddamned stubborn to admit you're wrong, which doesnt speak all that highly of your intelligence. Ya just get off on being controversial/adversarial for the sake of it, and your history on this forum proves that beyond a doubt. Now, a good-faith effort has been made to educate ya on the facts, but if ya INSIST on remainin ignorant then we cant help ya. Ya called ME a "gun-toting zealot"? Ya jackass, its people like me that regularly make donations to the NRA (you sure as hell aint gonna do it), an organization dedicated SOLELY to protectin not just MY rights but YOURS as well. I dont mind ya bein stupid, but I DO mind ya tryin to infect the uninformed with your stupidity. So next time ya feel the urge to spout off about things ya know nothin about, PLEASE do us all a favor and shut your piehole.

I've read the law multiple times. I just don't make **** up like you do.

It says you don't have to retreat, not that you automatically assume your safety is in danger and nothing less than deadly force will resolve the situation.

Even in your example, the shooter gave warning and only fired because the victim continued advancing, and although the story made no indication, I'm sure this version of the story was supported by both the friend of the victim and the shooters wife.

Nope, all you've done is call the Department of Justice a bunch of liars who manipulate their own data.

Almost as stupid as Isaac's belief that support of the First Amendment makes one a Socialist.

Isaac knows a great deal more about what it means to be an American, a citizen of our Constitutional Republic, than ya ever will. I suggest ya extract your head from your ass and concentrate more on preservin (y)our freedoms and less on being a nuisance! Ya claim to be a friend and supporter of the Second Amendment? Not from where Im standin! Ya can start by admittin ya dont know schit about the law. THEN ya can contact the NRA and make a donation. Next time ya post, I'll be expectin to hear that you've done just that! Do otherwise and you'll be exposin yourself for the socialist anti-American gun-grabbin freedom-hater that I strongly suspect ya to be.
