Then has the nerve to call someone else a coward. So you have a lot of examples obviously of most of the millions of law abiding gun owners committing cowardly acts with their legally owned firearms? I like the way you rely on anecdote and emotion to try to persuade people, does it work better than the facts? I have seen, treated and talked to lots of victims of gun violence. Not one of them was shot with a legally owned firearm. A lot of them wish they had a gun to defend themselves. A lot of things led to the man's death in this story, speeding, the violent history of both parties, the passenger deciding he could beat the man on the bike up, the passenger getting out of the truck, the man on the bicycles decision to confront the speeders. We'll see what a jury decides on this one. Just to clarify, do you believe that someone who lives in a high crime area where the cops have an average response time of 15 minutes is a coward for wanting to protect his or her home? Do you believe that someone who is professionally trained to carry a firearm and decides to carry a concealed weapon after obtaining the proper licenses is a coward? I just want to know who the cowards are, in your opinion? Is it the disabled veterans coming back from Iraq that don't physically have the means to protect their families without a firearm? Go ahead and enlighten us.
