He doesn’t have a duty to retreat but he does have to prove his body or life was in imminent mortal harm and it needs to be under the condition where he was not engaging in criminal activity initially. On the latter that is unresolved and on the former it continues to be a bar I don’t see him as having met.

I like how you think it's near impossible for the guy retreating to prove self defense from an attacker, but you're super confident that a dude running down another guy to attack him IS certainly self defense

You didn't think that one through.

Skateboard attacker and guy with gun attacker

What Kyle has to prove is how his life was in imminent danger from the person he killed and that he exhausted all reasonable options to deescalate before using lethal force. So far, from what the video shows, that is a very hard ask.

---

The video pretty clearly shows it actually.

So let’s get this logic straight, if I threaten you with an Ar-15, and you go to disarm me, I have a right to kill you

---

You forgot one important piece, and I say "forgot" nicely because I know you left it out on purpose. The part where me going to disarm you involves you retreating and running away and me continually tracking you down. That is NOT self defense. It's wild that you're arguing that is self defense but teh guy literally running away from an attacker isnt using self defense.

quote:

---

because Obviously, if you were to disarm me you would kill me afterwards.

---

Obviously? Nope, just have show that it is not beyond a reasonable doubt that the attacker wasn't going to physically harm him to place him in imminent danger, and it is OBVIOUSLY NOT beyond a reasonable doubt, but you know that.

And I guess you will prove that by way of the new pre-cog program the Wisconsin police have implemented?

---

No clue what that is or means

quote:

---

Or are you literally trying to argue the burden of proof is on the accuser and that the law supports that? Please, show me that statute.

---

In a criminal case the burden of proof is literally on the prosecution and not the defense. Amazing that you didn't know that.

quote:

---

Do you understand how fricking fascistic and absurd you sound?

---

The guy that is arguing someone retreating has little chance to show self defense on someone in pursuit but the guy in pursuit of the person retreating does have self defense calling me absurd, nice job.

The "fascistic" comment just reminds me of my earlier post where I pointed out your inability to have a simple disagreement with someone and you thinking anyone that disagrees with you is racist and facist, etc. I have no idea how someone can function and get through life if they can't navigate debates and differences in opinion without going off the deep end.
