Only in Ohio.

So-called ‘stand your ground’ laws are the same everywhere. All they do is remove any ‘duty to retreat’ as something the prosecution at trial can show you failed to do to invalidate your self-defense claim.

The case you are talking about involved a physical attack. That’s clearly assault and battery and the question for the jury (he WILL be indicted no matter what the idiot sheriff says) was whether that constituted enough force to be considered ‘lethal’. 

Probably not. At least FL court records don’t show that.This isn’t a race thing in general.

You talk about ‘stand your ground’ as if it was some kind of distinct and separate set of laws.

Yup, in FL over 70% of people who were acquitted under thestand your ground’ change to self defense law were minorities.

And the ACLU isn’t getting involved either.Individual cases aren’t what either group does, nor should they before the facts are presented and agreed on and any criminal charges dealt with.

OK, if you are going to report on self defense cases... PLEASE read the law.

Yeah, because snowflake writers for lame web sites and pointless TV shows need protection the same way coal miners and mill workers did.

Remington also provided the rifles used by the Union Army to win the Civil war, the pump shotgun Huey Newton was holding on the steps of the CA capitol building in the famous pic of the Panthers, and many the rifles used by the Deacons for Defense to help keep the KKK from attacking civil rights marches.

You’re kidding right?
