The way the laws are, you had better be very careful in the use of lethal force, else you will quickly have a new roommate in the Many Bar Hotel.

Exactly that is why we need to get all gun grabbing scum out of elected office. especially the proscuters office nationwide.If you exercice your right to life by defendig yourself and others from violent crime you should never be at risk of going to prison and in a free country that would never be possible we need to make this a free country again and in order to do thatwe haveto get rid of every one of the 20,000 unconstitutional gun laws that are on the books nationwide

I agree, self defense laws have gone too far to the other side. One has to not only protect himself, but in the heat of battle, make very precise judgements on lethal force. This is the law however, and we should know it, follow it carefully, to be able to defend ourselves against both an attacker and the inevitable criminal and civil legal action.

There are a lot of misconceptions out there, particularly about "consensual fighting" and use of lethal force in self-defense.

FWIW, IANAL, your mileage, state and D.A. may vary:
