It's so sad that simply defending myself is so expensive. Very Sad.

If there is any hint that you are a suspect
hey didnt I post this some years back? keep pushing forward its all good stuff..There are three phases to surviving a gunfight...
1) the gunfight itself.
2) the legal fight.
3) the mental & emotional fight.
If you use deadly or potentially deadly force in self-defense you should expect to get arrested, how you handled that is on you. Remain calm, SFTU and let your lawyer do the talking.
Was the media bias because he was Asian?
Thanks for the link to the AMA. That was an interesting read.Yes, that and the fact that the assailant was a WA national guardsman (Graham Harper).
The racial bias even went as far as the prosecutor trying to blame the student and say he was a "drunken rogue martial arts warrior" because he was Asian and had started a "self defense" interest club as a student. The actual truth is most of his martial arts training was in performance martial arts (Chinese liondance). Anybody who knows martial arts knows there's a huge difference between that vs. practical fighting, but I guess the prosecutor tried to tap into racist stereotypes of Asians.
The innocent student (Jarred Ha) has done an AMA on reddit to talk to people about self-defense and the case. It's long, but you can read it here:

The name of his defense attorneys were Zachery Wagnild and Michelle Scudder. Sounds like 2 good people to hire in case you're ever involved in a self-defense scenario:

No offense, but how do you know that the media bias was because he was Asian?
One-sided and unfair definitely, but because he was Asian? Please bear in mind that I'm not trying to defend them in any way. I just can't spot the racial bias.None taken. Media is pretty evident in coverage of the story by multiple sources - here's an example:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...man-punched-face-man-stole-parking-space.html
The whole version of events told in this Daily Mail story definitely take Harper's side and are biased against Ha. Unfortunately for Jarred Ha, any future employer that Googles his name is going to find articles like the Daily Mail one - hopefully the fact that he was proven innocent in a court of law with corroborating testimony by unbiased witnesses will clear his name and get the aforementioned article removed.
And, SHUT UP until you have legal representation!
