This is the first time I have heard of this one. How about anyone else? Any truth to it or is it just more propaganda. I have done a search but found nothing. I did give them my opinion on it even though it will not do any good.
But it would sure be great if it did pass.
In October, Florida became a very dangerous place, and if the National Rifle Association (NRA) gets its way, California will be next.
On October 1, the Shoot First Law went into effect in Florida, giving the people of Florida permission to use deadly force as a FIRST resort, even in a public place. The law grants sweeping criminal and civil immunity to anyone who pulls the trigger when they feel "threatened" -- and specifically denies legal recourse to innocent bystanders killed or wounded in the crossfire, even if the shooter acted negligently.

But the Shoot First doctrine isn't just staying in Florida -- the NRA has made no bones about the fact that it plans to export Shoot First legislation to all 50 states in 2006. This is about to become a national disgrace, and will take us back to the days of the Wild West -- unless you get involved.
Our partners at Working Assets have put together an easy way for you to tell your Governor to "Keep Shoot First out of our state" -- and we encourage you to click the link below to get this important message to Governor Schwarzenegger.
