Too bad that wasn't my wife. He would be shot dead in defense of my wife's serious bodily injury. One less arrogant piece of trash!
452 how so? No weapon, no strangulation, not even threat of death.
452am First, you would go to prison for a murder Second you can't legally carry a firearm in NY unless your active or retired LE Third you have never been in a fight to the death or fired a weapon at close range at a moving target during an assualt... Thanks
