Fight the charges..... Screw the BS. No jury will ever convict him; they will drag him through the red tape hoping he gives up

It was dumb of him to do so.
I don't think he will get a conviction tho.

I certainly hope this gets dismissed.
It's not the weapon that makes me hesitant to fire upon someone at long range, but the legal ramifications and plethora of good prosecuting attorneys.

The LEO's in NH were dead against passage of the new gun laws and Castle Doctrine last year. Gov vetoed it and it got overriden. The closer you get to the MA border the worse the attitude gets. But heck, souther NH is really northern MA these days anyway

Wouldn't one expect this to be triple checked before an arrest is made?

No it is not! Under the new guidelines you can stand your ground if you are in a place you can lawfully be. His trouble might be if he was on the other guys property.

If he was on the other guys property he is in deep doo doo I think.

I too hope the charges are dismissed. But even up here you can't chase people and fire warning shots.
