Erosion of Nevada Castle Doctrine

The article is more alarmist than it should be, as is typical of organizations (left or right) subsisting on donations. Even so, the proposed bill is a bad idea. I know nothing of Navada politics, so I can't speculate on the chances of passage.

This is where Republicans repeatedly fall on their faces in a slobbering pool. What they should do is go on the offensive, demanding to know why those Dimocrats are "pro criminal" and why they are so willing to sell honest citizens down the river.

For now at least, the picture accompanying such an article in Texas would appear slightly different:

If the erosion (a euphemism if ever I heard one) of the Nevada Castle Doctrine is what it appears to be than the only thing I can conclude is criminals now have their own lobbyists...wait, yes, they've always had them, but perhaps not this bald...

Bazinga! Furthermore, any republican who asks why it is necessary for them to go on the offensive should be asked (A) do you like your job; (B) do you want to keep it; and (C) when did you start working for the DNC?

I'm surprised there's not more attention to this proposed bill or is it some sort of hoax?

Please tell me it's actually a hoax as even the most liberal of liberals wouldn't promote such a pro-criminal, anti-citizen bill of this colossal stupidity!

I just spent a good 10 minutes trying to determine if this is legitimate. Regardless, it's a very poorly written article. It would have a little more credibility if they'd mention which specific bill they are writing about.

I am not surprised. Most liberals feel that criminals are victims of society, and, as such, should be afforded extra protections under the law.

You will notice that every time someone is shot, or killed in self defense, the bottom dwellers come out of the woodwork to defend the poor unfortunate, criminal. We have had bills proposed in Texas along these same lines, one would have effectively destroyed the Castle Doctrine here, and reinstated a requirement to retreat in one's own home.

Just like the grandfather of the armed burglars in Oklahoma, the armed robber shot in a pizza place, and any others. They have no conception of right and wrong, or even sympathy for those beaten, robbed, or raped, at the hands of criminals, they want to deflect responsibility to someone else.

This bill is just a way for the criminal's family, to try to get rich from their devil spawn's misdeeds. Hopefully, the good folks of Nevada will reject this bill.

Criminals don't need lobbyists. They have Democratic law makers firmly in their pockets, and will keep them there as long as the criminals continue to vote Democratic. Like the Virginia Governor who decided to restore voting rights to felons just in time for the last election.

If it were to pass I guess the only solution would be to make sure the criminal reaches ambient temperature. Of course you would probably have to deal with the family of the darling angel that never did any thing wrong. (Even though his rap sheet is 3 feet long.)

To me "duty to retreat" means stepping back a few feet to get a better aiming position. :lol:
