I don’t think you described a good case for it. But I still think you nailed it with that paragraph I quoted.

Yes. Repeating the same stupid overconfident phrase while in a state of anxiety.

The term is a new one on me though the action isn’t.

Yes I’ve witnessed it numerous times but never heard the term. In all fairness to blacks I’ve seen white people do it too.

So leaning in is a death sentence?
Posted on 6/6/26 at 8:49 pm to AubieinNC2009
not even close. You can't stab someone to death if they "lean in to shove you." There's no way you can argue that someone reasonably fears for their life and has to respond with lethal force because someone is pushing them out from under a tent that they've been asked to leave.

I don't know Texas law, but I do recall those two idiots in GA a few years ago who lost the ability to claim self defense because they had illegally detained the victim at gun point..
In this case I think it could be argued that because KA illegally carried a weapon onto school grounds or a school function where weapons are prohibited, he lost his right to claim self defense... A quick google search says it's a 3rd degree felony.
I think I answered my own question.. By carrying a weapon onto school grounds/ property, he was engaged in a 3rd degree felony. According to Texas law, he lost his right to stand his ground and had a duty to retreat. Secondly, he lost the presumption of reasonableness, meaning he lost the presumption that he was in reasonable fear for his life.. He fricked himself the moment he stepped on school grounds with a knife.
Also, Provocation (" Baiting" the Victim): Under Texas Penal Code § 9.31(b)(4), you cannot claim self-defense if you purposely provoked the other person into using force as a pretext to attack them
Repeatedly daring Metcalf to "touch me and find out" is most definitely provocation.

Texas is a "Stand Your Ground" state, meaning you generally have no legal obligation to run away before defending yourself. However, according to Texas Penal Code § 9.31(e), the right to stand your ground only applies if you are "not engaged in criminal activity at the time the force is used.

In a standard Texas self-defense case, the law presumes your fear was reasonable if you are protecting yourself against an intruder in your home, vehicle, or business. However, under ?Texas Penal Code § 9.31, this legal presumption is completely defeated if you are actively engaged in criminal activity (other than a minor traffic violation).

I didn't see anyone mention the fact that he went in there with a folding knife...already unfolded.
He knew what he was going to do when he went in that tent.

looks like my sarcasm/assholeness did not come through.
I think this idiot is guilty as can be, but you just know the reverends and community organizers will be out pushing the self defense BS

Not only that, but being suspended from school, he shouldn’t have been at the meet at all. He was trespassing.
