It was reported, a month or two ago in Arizona, a young Marine just back from a tour of duty overseas was shot over 20 times. A SWAT team broke into his house because they suspected one of his relatives was dealing in drugs. His wife saw some strange people running around his house. She yelled to him when he was asleep in his bed that strangers with guns were running around his house. He picked up his rife and when the Swat team burst thru the door they drilled him full of holes! His rifle still had the safe on! Didn't sound like he had much of a chance to even drop his rifle. He never fired a shot or threatened anyone! I didn't know it was a crime punishable by firing squad to hold a rifle in your hand in your own house!
