I'm not usually one for posting about anything political. But damn.
Please correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me that in very white trash circumstances of say a an ex-wife or ex-husband comes over to pick their child up for the weekend visitation. The custodial parent suddenly decides he/she doesn't want the other parent to see the child this weekend. The other parent pushes the door open in anger as it's being shut in his/her face. Now it's become deadly since it appears that the custodial parent can now shoot the other parent because he/she has forcibly entered the house with "deadly" intent on the resident. Am I wrong? Please tell me I am.
If this law had been in affect while I was a minor, my mother would have been shot or beaten to death quite legally upon entering my father's house in such a way. The law states deadly force. People don't have to be shot to be killed. They can be stabbed, thrown out of a window, beaten with fists or various household objects.
I guess my real concern is: who's to say that a man who beats his wife regularly won't accidentally kill her; then place a weapon in her hands, break a window, and then claim to police that he was only defending himself when she broke in and attacked him with the large knife in her hands? It's like allowing regular people to kill whenever they feel like it, but with good intentions. Like the very devious would use this law for good intentions.
It makes me go ARGH!
And don't even get me started on John Roberts or that bitch who has never been a judge, that Bush wants to put in Sandra's seat. He wants a woman but one that has been part of his staff. WTF?
This is why I don't post political crap. It gets me all mad as hell.
