Here is Mr SkinnyJeans sending five shots into the crowd. I don't think he is going to be able to use the "I felt threatened because, you know, the 21 foot rule"I couldn't tell WTF was going on in either video and ran out of patience after 1 view each.
Without regard to either side, l think my question stands alone:In an SYG state, how far is far enough? If your gassed, do you need to prove it to the jury? At that point, do you even have the capability to engage in so-called mutual combat effectively? Will they conclude that a lack of overall fitness qualifies as a mitigating factor in a disparity of force defense?
It looked like the Kenosha Kid (who's name escapes me at the moment) ran like Hell and seemed justified in putting down multiple armed attackers but is still being charged. I realize that case has some extraordinary political pressures, but so will this (or any other SD claim). Does just being involved in this kind of "demonstration" put you at extra risk of being prosecuted by way of willingly putting yourself at risk?
