| 2 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonThere are probably some other similar cases but I don't think anyone is really tracking and compiling this information in a publicly accessible way. At least not as far as I can tell. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 07:14 PM |
| 5 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonhttps://patch.com/florida/landolakes/37-year-old-woman-shot-killed-zephyrhills Jessie Ellison shot a 37 year old woman in self defense killing her. If you go and check the Pasco County clerk of courts you will find that no charges were ever filed against Ellison and he was never arrested for the shooting. http://www.pascoclerk.com/public-online-services-forms-or-search.asp | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 07:10 PM |
| 5 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonI understand. You and I would probably fit in well /r/DadReflexes/ I just think this dad was used to not being on guard as well as distracted and it simply didn't register to him what was happening as quickly as it should have. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 04:57 PM |
| 3 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonDirt is certainly better than the air but since this attempted kidnapping occurred outside a grocery store the ground is probably a paved surface I'm assuming. A potential ricochet might have greater odds of injuring an innocent bystander than a bullet falling from the air. I don't think any reasonable person would argue that firing into the air is a safe option, just that there may be times that it's a better option than other actions that could be taken. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 04:42 PM |
| 19 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonMy guess would be that this dad probably lives in a pretty safe community and never thought something like this could ever happen. He mentioned that they were used to letting strangers hold and play with the baby and probably assumed this stranger was generally safe since she was a woman and he let his guard down. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 04:38 PM |
| 12 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonFlorida. Not only are warning shots legal but brandishing your weapon is now also legal but only if both are used to ward off the reasonable fear of great bodily harm or death to yourself or another person. A warning shot is definitely a little on the reckless side but it's certainly a better option than some other possible outcomes. Edit: Not only are the above statements true but in Florida you can also use deadly force to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony (i.e. kidnapping) … | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 03:18 PM |
| 11 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonI went to the range with a few friends several months back. If you're not going several times per month, trust me when I tell you that you're not going to hit anything with any sort of accuracy whatsoever, especially in a situation where your adrenaline has you on edge. A pistol at more than a few yards in a real world scenario is rarely accurate enough to hit a barn door. Hitting a nice group at the range means nothing when it comes to a real world scenario. If you ever do have to use your weap… | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 03:09 PM |
| 11 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonbut when do you shoot? Only when you are 100% certain there is no chance in missing your target. A point blank shot within an arms reach. Or fire a warning shot in the air which is also another legal option and often enough to scare a person into submission. by the time an open shot presents itself, you're getting charged with murder not defense. Not in Florida. Someone should have shot that bitch in the kidnapping story. Exactly. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 02:43 PM |
| 4 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonAbsolutely, but only if I was able to get within an arms reach of distance. A point blank shot. If there was any doubt whatsoever that I would need more than a single shot or may possibly miss my target then no. My next option would be to fire a warning shot into the air which is also 100% legal in my state. This option more often then not is enough to stop someone in this type of situation. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 02:39 PM |
| 10 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonA man who shoots and kills a woman is going to be convicted of murder under almost any circumstances Sounds like you've never spent any time in Florida. It's extremely unwise in Florida to assume you won't get killed on the spot simply for putting someone else in a fearful situation here as the law is written to side with the person practicing self defense rather than assuming the defender is in the wrong until the facts are later determined. Florida has millions of individuals walking around th… | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 02:35 PM |
| 22 | The elderly ladies who were 'keeping an eye ' on my sonThis is why I conceal carry. If someone were to try and kidnap my child they wouldn't live to tell about it and luckily my state affords me the right to this use of force. Especially in a situation that dangerous. Who knows what would have happened to that child if the woman had gotten away. | /r/MensRights | 11/01/19 01:11 PM |
