A reader tells me he caught part of a commercial and ABC's Nightline is going to do a hit piece on "Castle Doctrine" tonight. I can't find anything about it on their site, so consider this a heads-up that can't be verified at this time.
If anyone has any information, please chime in.
UPDATE: It's on.
Thanks, John!

ReplyDeleteAnybody got a clue what time it's going down?
ReplyDeleteI don't have a way to find out in front of me here at work.
With ABC's renowned "fair and balanced" reporting, I am sure they will make such a hatchet job that Michael Moore will pay them homage.

I can get on here, but not tvguide.com
Reading the comments on the story really made me laugh.
Ack! A computer with limited access is like a full-sized 9mm with a 10 round magazine!
ReplyDeleteI actually left a comment, one of the few I've made anywhere. I'm more of a lurker than a poster. :-) Here's the text of what I left.
ReplyDeleteWe've had the "Castle" doctrine in FL for a while now, and it was recently expanded to a "Stand your ground" law, which allows people to defend themselves anyplace they have a right to be. Since I'm disabled and a target for would-be theives, it's nice to know that I'll face a lower number of problems if I'm ever forced to defend myself than someone in a more restrictive state. It seems that too many newspeople are anti-gun, as though the equipment is the problem. I've seen people seriously harmed with a car door. It's not weapons that cause people to be violent, it's a defect in personality. There have always been violent people, and the only thing that holds them back is the chance that someone could return the violence to them. Self defense laws help more people to stand up against the criminals without fear that it will result in their own loss of freedom.
