Yes .. points taken .. it is America after all and who am I to judge their legal system or attitude towards guns?
However, my values cannot see any situation in which a gun (assault rifle) could be carried around by another person in public, especially in city areas, and for my safety not to feel threatened. (Can become an active shooter in seconds)
Nor that a weapon like that can be used to shoot an unarmed person and for it not to be a criminal offence. (Whatever happened to 'reasonable force'?)
Nor that property damage can be put ahead of taking a life.
And it still doesn't answer my question...If Rosenbaum had of got the shot off first, with a registered gun, would it have been self-defence? At the time Kyle certainly didn't know his character or gun licence status, just as Rosenbaum didn't know Kyle's intention, other than he had already killed two people.
