That's a false analogy. If I rape a woman, and I try and argue that she was scantily clad and asking for it, it is likely inadmissible as evidence and certainly not an affirmative defense or legal cause for justification.


I wasn't arguing the legality of it. I was saying when you do certain things some unintended and bad things happen. Not because the person deserves it, or did anything wrong.

That is correct, and from a legal standpoint usually when the action you were doing was legal (IE self defense) any resulting accidents will almost certainly NOT result in criminal charges.

Now, had the dog simply been chained up and growling, but no threat to the officers, and they shot it anyway, and a ricochet kid the kid. Different story. The dog wasn't a threat, therefor the shooting was unjustified therefor you are legally liable for any resulting "accidents"
