  • That’s easy. Step one, lock the car door… There, you’ve been charged with mith murder for skipping a basic step because someone walked towards you. Bummer.

    Like I said numerous times before it depends on the situation, where you live etc. Read and understand the law. Getting the shit kicked out of you might not be considered anymore more than battery and wouldn’t be justified to shoot them unless your life was actually threatened.


  • Yes the law still applies

    “Reasonable belief: You must reasonably believe that using force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to yourself or others.”

    If anyone can prove otherwise. You will go to prison for manslaughter. You have to understand the situation before you take lethal action on someone. If somlne who was drunk opened your car door because they thought it was there car, that doesn’t give you the right to murder them.

    This happened notk g ago where a man shot and killed a teenager for using his drive way to turn around.


  • So shooting someone over self defense… it would seem many people don’t know what that is or how it works.

    If somone punches you. You cannot just shoot them back and call it even. There has to be an actual threat to your life ending in that moment in order to shoot someone to stop them. If you shot someone for kicking your ass. You’ll go to jail for murder. If someone charges you with a weapon, though, then that could be challenged in court as an act towards your life
