OK - everyone is going to hate this. I'm just going to explain to you what the law is. Even the pharmacists attorney knows this which is why he skirted around the issue in the video and said he understood why the DA filed those charges. if you don't beleive me, do your own research.<br> <br> The law is, you are to meet the level of force that you are threatened with. If you are threatened with deadly force, you can respond with deadly force. But once the threat has passed, you no longer have that right to use deadly force. The reason is because people would take the law into their own hands. It would be ok to kill someone for far less serious offenses and we can't live in a society like that. It would be very, very dangerous and would result in chaos...the wild west. Now these boys were doing something they shoudln't have done. The first shot the boy got was justified. The law recognizes that. The other five were not. The last five guns shot weren't fear or self-defense. It was anger. No one is allowed to take the law into their own hands. Sorry. It's how we make it fair for everyone. You get to have your day in court, in front of a jury of your peers, and you get to cross examine witnesses, no matter how guilty you are. Everyone gets their day in court. That protects everyday people like you and me from tyrany. It used to be that the authorities or an angry mod would come and drag you out of your house in the middle of the night, burn the place down and hang you fromk a tree. We don't live that way any more and as noble as the pharmacists actions seem to have been, he crossed a line. So he went to jail and so would any of you. Black, white, green, or purple.
