Missouri “Castle Doctrine” Legislation Needs Help!

Friday, May 12, 2006

 

The Missouri General Assembly session is getting ready to adjourn for the year and the Senate has yet to take action on House Bill 1461, the critically important “Castle Doctrine” reform bill.  

 

HB 1461, introduced by Representative Marilyn Ruestman (R-131), protects your right to self-defense, and ensure Missourians do not have a “duty to retreat” from a violent attacker.

 

Please contact Senate President Michael Gibbons at 573-751-2853 and politely request HB 1461 receive a full floor vote this week!  Also, please respectfully remind Senator Gibbons without this important protection, innocent crime victims in Missouri can be sued for defending themselves and their family by the violent attacker!

 

Please be sure to have your family, friends and fellow Second Amendment supporters call Senator Gibbons as well.
