In the 3600 block of Harlequin Court in Huntingtown, MD, no less.

Very surprising our vociferous, anti-stand-your-ground, gun nut didn't tell us about this. Damn near
in this back yard, after all.


Just more proof of my posit that you really don't comprehend what you read.

It wasn't anything like a Florida "stand your ground" incident.

It was an attempted home invasion, to wit:

"A retired D.C. police officer shot and killed a man during an apparent
attempted home invasion in Calvert County, Md., Sunday night, and
detectives arrested a woman they found at the deceased's residence in Lusby.

"The incident began shortly before 10:30 p.m., when the former officer
heard several loud bangs on his front door in the 3600 block of
Harlequin Court in Huntingtown, according to the Calvert County
Sheriff’s Office. He grabbed a handgun and answered the door, finding
two people there.

"One brandished a weapon and both made aggressive movements toward the
homeowner, who fired shots at them in fear of his life."

There was no kid walking through the neighborhood with a soft drink and
a bag of candy.

There were no kids in the next car at a gas station playing their music
too loud.

From your many racist and hate-filled posts here and your inability to
comprehend what you read, I wonder if you have a personality suitable to
own a firearm. You come across as a snarly hothead, just itching to
shoot a black kid.


Did the homeowner retreat? Nope. Did the homeowner react to a threat? Yup. Did the homeowner stand
his ground? Yup.

None of your insults or name-calling change the facts, foad!
