So if someone pulled a gun in your face, you'd want them to be tried in Virginia where they'd basically have no consequences for their action?
I just can't understand that... then again, I'm from Texas where we believe in punishing our criminals. I guess we're the minority these days.
I just stated that if he were to be convicted, I would wish it to be in Virginia where the penalty fits the crime. Gun laws in FLA are crazy.
Then again if I were a punk thief who stole some ATVs and the owner pulled a gun in my face, then I probably wouldn't give a damn. I would probably gather up some of my buddies, drive to the guy's house and shoot it to hell. Then a few months later I would steal some more ATVs. Then I would act like a righteous martyr and make a big scene out of something that was my fault to begin with.
And if I were a thief and an attempted murderer, then I probably wouldn't think too much of lying to the police about the guy pulling a gun on me instead of him actually just beating the piss out of me.
