“We need better self defense laws”
The dead guy had him in a chokehold for 18 seconds before he smoked the guy.
The laws are fine. It’s the communists that need to be changed.
The laws ARE NOT fine or people wouldn’t continue to get arrested and charged with stacked felonies for clear self-defense. Not everyone can afford to spend $40-100K on lawyers and wait a decade for a case to play through the courts. It infuriates me to see people in true fear for their life trying to maneuver their vehicle around these mobs, be attacked, have windows broken, and then be arrested. The point of stand your ground laws was rooted in this; without duty to retreat, you are assumed to be defending yourself unless there is clear evidence to the contrary and you will not be arrested and tried. I’d rather go too far the other way; if someone is in a group and is on your property or blocking a road without a permit, you may do what you feel necessary, to include using deadly force and will not be charged.
