Save this old man and your rights at the same time.

I think this is a longer term problem and needs state laws changed. Colorado has always limited property owner's rights of defense of the property. The Make My Day was an attempt to correct some of this. This needs to keep going. As I understand it Texas has a good set of laws where people can defend property without worrying about being locked up forever.

DA's are just thugs in suits. They'll use whatever laws they have to convict people. Just pay you never get into it a system where your ability to pay an expensive lawyer means more than guilt or innocence. Just make sure the laws they'll use and abuse are better.

Colorado statue 18-1-704 and 18-1-706 does give him this right, unfortunatly the DA will argue that the men who were going to run him over with thier truck did not pose "imminent danger" to Mr Wallace, although law enforcement uses this all the time in their defense to justify shooting a suspect who point a car at them.


I contacted the State Attorney General office for whats its worth also.

I sent a email. Has anyone else done this and received a reply? What possible motivation would a DA have to keep letting these criminals off the hook?

12 felony counts for the old man........
probably only 2 felony counts for the guys who stole the trailer.

That's this jackhole's motivation. pure numbers, add a " gun toting maniac".. " off the streets" and you have a DA's wet dream.

don't forget the $$$... the more successful cases he has, the more $$$ gets into his pocket. And with the general makeup of libtards, even though he's 82 he could've jumped out of the way of the oncoming car and thus it didn't pose an immement threat and so we'll send the poor old bastard to jail for... life!

catch the sarcasm.

I have not recieved a reply to my email or calls but I am sure they are overwhelmed at this point, at least I hope they are.
Spread the word and call daily so they fell the heat for some time.

The motivation is pure politics, many DA's move into politics as their next step. Colorado is run by liberals at this point and they support the illegals and when illegals vote they vote for who helps them. Politics is big money and thats the motivation.
Republicans and Democrats both have a reason they want illegals in this country.

We need to clean house in the coming elections, from local to federal level.

It's also a full employment program for trial lawyers. He can probably afford more legal help than the thieves.
