Defense states that if someone in a movie theater throws a piece of...

popcorn at someone, he/she has a right to kill them...Stand Your Ground!!!

Yep, Stand Your Ground States? You can expect a lot more of this shit

I don’t wish anyone to be hurt or injured, however I wish all of you who support these laws, lots of anxiety when out in public.. Especially Driving? If I cut someone off accidentally, perhaps that someone might feel I endangered his life...Stand Your Ground... Opens all kinds of Shit.

1. Gunner shitheads always believe that they are a second away from being beaten to death

Throw popcorn? Shoot 'em: they're about to KILL YOU!

Look sideways at? Shoot 'em: they're about to KILL YOU!

Ask you for a quarter for the meter? Shoot 'em: they're about to KILL YOU!

Walk down the same side of the street while young and black? Shoot 'em: they're about to KILL YOU!

This is the mentality of the gunner shithead.

4. Exactly!!!

However, we must remember they polish their weapons every day.. Lining them up.......Admiring them etc...There is just this “itch” which just doesn’t go away..

2. The ONLY solution is for Florida movie theater owners to stop selling popcorn.

5. Sort of stands the trope: an armed society is a polite society - upside down.

It turns out that an armed society is in reality a barbaric violent clusterfuck. Who could have imagined?

10. Anyone who's remotely aware of the history of heavily-armed societies...

Which to be fair, probably doesn't include anyone who is a proponent of such a society.

The Saxons were not well-known for their peaceful, civil ways...

6. If someone is so disturbed as to believe that popcorn thrown is

a threat against his life, that person should probably not be allowed to carry a handgun. Just about anything might cause that person to react by killing another person, it would seem.

9. That was my understanding since the Martin murder

as long as a person can prove they were all a feared they can kill

Also back then the way
I saw it you could start a fight in a bar provoke someone to any lengths to take a swing and then shoot them because now you were afraid of what you started with SYG
no one needs to walk away from anything with this law no one needs to move seats or apply a brake
The person was a feared that is all that needs to be proved
Should prove maybe you belong in a mental institutionl or jail but now it is a "right" you have

11. Interesting dichotomy

Before: "Just 'cause I carry a gun everywhere doesn't mean I'm afraid of everything!"

After: "Yer honor, I WUZ SKURRED!"

[polichick]

13. Exactly!
