A Rockdale County man may have had the right to shoot and kill three teenagers during an alleged robbery attempt, according to a Georgia State University professor.
The “stand your ground” law allows for a person to use deadly force if they feel their life or someone else’s life or their property is in danger, said Russell Covey, a law professor. “What the stand your ground laws do is say you don’t have to retreat,” Covey told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. |

I'm surprised that I haven't heard yet that they were all choir boys and had great plans for college and a career in social work. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
