MS election is Tuesday Governor’s race Tate Reeves’ (R) ad about Jim Hood’s (D) position on guns. I also thought it interesting that Hood, the “top lawyer in the state” thinks stand your ground laws and castle doctrine laws are the same thing. They aren’t. An attorney should know that.

MS election The Tate Reeves (R) for governor campaign reminds us that his opponent, Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood (D), opposed Mississippi’s Castle Doctrine law. We also noticed that he also calls himself the chief law enforcement officer in the state. But it’s ATTORNEY general, Jim. The last I heard, attorneys are officers of the courts. That’s the judicial branch. […]
