Y'all are so wrong about this.

"Ooohhh, scary Gun!"

Justifiable Homicide in Louisiana makes no mention of the weapon used and how it was obtained, assuming a weapon was used at all. If the firearm was obtained illegally and possessed illegally then that's a separate charge he would face. Unless he's a convicted felon or the firearm was stolen, there's no reason to think that the firearm would have been possessed illegally anyway.

People need to get this shite out of their head that most firearms are illegal or the possession of firearms are illegal or that most people that possess firearms are possessing them illegally. That's an extremely small percentage of people holding firearms at any given moment. This mentality feeds into the "guns = bad" agenda.

I 100% agree with what you said.

Louisiana has “stand your ground” laws plus you can have a hand gun on your person as long as you are 18 or older (open carry) plus your car is an extension of your home and you can have a gun (pistol/long gun) at the age of 18 or older in your car. So the only worry for me, was the gun illigal? If the gun is his or a family members then he should be fine because everything I have read so far points to self defense.

I teach law studies and an entire unit of gun laws and safety in the state of Louisiana plus I have my conceal carry license.

I pray everything will work out and I’m just glad he is ok and wasn’t hurt.

Geaux Tigers!
