Fear is not a get out of jail free card. It takes a lot more than that to win even a valid self-defense case.

It is when you're a cop. You had Philando Castile in Minneapolis. Police shootings in Oklahoma and Ohio and the Carolinas and Georgia and Nevada. Coast to coast, north to south, police claim fear for their safety and the safety of others and they walk. Happens over and over again.

I agree with the sentiment, but it’s not just because they claimed fear for their life. It’s not their fear that got them off.
