Could be, Hawk. As to the rest, I don't know, to be honest.
The point I was trying to make is that a CCW holder or whoever ought to be darn careful about where they put those bullets.
That's needless to say, but a justified shooter is held innocent regarding injuries to third parties. I believe that's the law in every state. Some states even charge the criminal who was the target of the shooting with murder if third parties are killed by the bullets fired from the justified shooter's weapon.


That is interesting. I guess I'd best do some more research on Idaho's laws concerning same.
Here's a start on the concept I'm referring to:

"[T]he doctrine of self-defense is available to insulate one from criminal responsibility where his act, justifiably in self-defense, inadvertently results in the injury of an innocent bystander." (People v. Mathews (1979) 91 Cal.App.3d 1018, 1024 [154 Cal.Rptr. 628]; see also People v. Curtis (1994) 30 Cal.App.4th 1337, 1357 [37 Cal.Rptr.2d 304].) " Source

And California isn't known for being particularly self-defense friendly.
