MARTY9,

Play it safe. Assume any innocent bystander you negligently shoot will sue you. Then you will be more thougthful before your pull your piece and start slinging lead. The idea is to protect YOURSELF and your family not society. If you want to do that, join the Police and the FOP will pay for your lawyer. If the idea is to protect yourself and you end up bankrupt then you haven't done what you set out to do. Observe a bank being robbed? Call 911 and stay low

. It will probably turn out better for you!
