CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Kenneth Roop told Cape Coral Police he had three "no trespassing" signs in his yard, when door-to-door salesman Nicholas Rainey walked into his driveway. Police say he shot Rainey twice, killing him Wednesday afternoon.

Roop told police the salesman "should have respected that warning." But did that give him the right to shoot?

"It's not a license to harm somebody, no," Attorney Brian Edwards said.

There are those out there in the world that have a CHL or get one just because they are itching to shoot someone. This guy is one of them. He should have called the police and had the guy arrested for trespassing, if he truly did have signs posted. He is an idiot.
The laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.

I highly doubt that the shooter in this story told the guy to get off of his property, or even if he did, gave him the time to clear out. The shooter should suffer the consequences according to the law. Its got very little to do with the CHL, anyway, because the shooter was on his own property and a CHL meant nothing in that case. Just the leftist media in full-court-press mode, pushing for controls on the people who DIDN'T commit these crimes. :mad5
