An ounce is only 430 grains. What happened to "when in doubt, empty the magazine"? ;-)

Yup. Knew a dude who did that - twice. Went to court and got the RO claiming he was deathly afraid of the individuals, waited until the circumstances were "right" and shot them. Never served a day in jail.
Nice story, but the restrainee has to be served with notice of the order, so what did he do, figure out where they'd be and just pop around the corner?

Then get 8 lbs of restraining orders. :)
The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .

It's also been proven - though not scientifically - that they may CAUSE a violent act that otherwise would have been far less likely if not eliminated completely.

RO abuse in domestic situations CAUSES violence.
