For me, it's not about being late to work or another minor (and defensible to the boss, etc.) inconvenience. That, I can't or wouldn't bitch about...small potatoes.
Yet, we don't know what others are getting through. Trying to get home to take care of someone. Dealing with an IBS situation. Worked an 18 hour day. Need to get to chemo, or deal with its aftermath. In labor. Loved one dying. Being driven to the ER for something ER-worthy.
Just saying, so many different situations where intentional blocking of passing through can have direct and horrific repercussions.
Honestly? Not sure how I'd react in the face of that, in that moment.
Illinois State law... one can use a firearm to stop a forcible felony.
Maybe you should look up what a forcible felony in Illinois is. Wait, here you go: (720 ILCS 5/2-8) (from Ch. 38, par. 2-8) Sec. 2-8. "Forcible felony". "Forcible felony" means treason, first degree murder, second degree murder, predatory criminal sexual assault of a child, aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault, robbery, burglary, residential burglary, aggravated arson, arson, aggravated kidnaping, kidnaping, aggravated battery resulting in great bodily harm or permanent disability or disfigurement and any other felony which involves the use or threat of physical force or violence against any individual. (Source: P.A. 88-277; 89-428, eff. 12-13-95; 89-462, eff. 5-29-96.)
I know what a forcible felony is, thanks.
What obsessive critique do you have of me this time because of what I said?
You even quoted what I said, where is it wrong?
I comment on many of your posts because you're often wrong or your logic is flawed. Plus, you reply often so there's that reward!
The above is an example. You used "forcible felony" in your post when the topic was what's justified if someone is breaking your car windows. Breaking car windows isn't a forcible felony.
The funny thing is you liberals like to point out how those that disagree with you are wrong, as if you're always right. There's never a discussion, that's why I don't negotiate anymore, don't blame me.
Well with a guy standing there screaming how he's going to f*ck you up I'd say it's safe to assume that his intent goes beyond breaking windows. The law also applies to STOPPING a felony, so thankfully I don't have to wait until I'm murdered to shoot him.
In that situation the individual that tried to open the door initiated assault against me and he's either getting run over or shot because there's no way he's dragging me out alive.
Either way I'm not going to get into a back and forth on what his intent is, by opening my door he's entering my domain and he will be physically removed one way or the other.
For me, it's not about being late to work or another minor (and defensible to the boss, etc.) inconvenience. That, I can't or wouldn't bitch about...small potatoes.
