No charges filed. He should not be putting himself in position for even the possibility of trouble this close to a big payday, but these are big guys on campus and I am sure are used to going out for "a good time" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Or, shooting her if she looks at you in a menacing manner.if a woman was assaulting me and I had a gun I would be well within my right and highly likely to shoot her. Yeah that's always a great looking move! if a woman attacked you would you sit there and take it? What does it matter if a woman or man does this. They're both equally likely to be dangerous. That she is a woman has nothing to do with this story at all. The guy was attacked and he defended himself. Is that a problem? Is it wrong to defend yourself from attack?

I do think it's a bit more complicated than I was assaulted so I shot in terms of whether that's justified by law. I do agree that it shouldn't matter if it's a male or female but I do think their stature also needs to be the same i.e. is it reasonable to believe a 100 lb female vs a 225 lb male could justify the same amount of self defense chosen.

White Linen Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The "stand your ground" crowd is just... loony. I mean the notion that 'merica is losing standing in the world because of namby-pamby liberals afraid to stand up for themselves and more interested in bathrooms, is just laughable to me. There are much bigger, systemic problems in our society than whether we adequately protect self-defense. Talk about a stupid distraction. Don't be so small minded with your broad stroke. Bigger issues always exist but doesn't mean smaller ones aren't worthy of time. Just because it frustrates me and I'll spend time/money to fix 1 of the 3 toilets in our house - doesn't mean I can't understand there's hungry people in the City I live in.

I have no problem with that statement, although I find it hard to picture myself in such a situation. We don't know much about this particular situation, but, in your mind, would it have been OK for him to shoot her? I'm sure it is safe to assume that she approached him in an aggressive, threatening manner prior to the assault? He could have been scared, right?

Does she have a weapon in your scenario? this is not how an argument works. You don't ask a rhetorically stupid question and get a dignified response. Poor effort. But its now on you to define assault. Because I can counter by reading the law. Jeeeez weak. Yeah but what if it was Barbara Mandrell? That was an interesting pick you made the other day.

BarleyNY Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The problem is when its a 300 pound monster doing the pushing away the woman could end up on the next block..... Its a slippery slope One is assuming that it's a defensive push to get her away and not one that deliberately puts her in harms way. Accidents could, of course, happen in such cases, but every person has the right to defend themselves. Even a woman can do damage to a large man. What if she'd caught him across the cornea with her nail? What if she'd had a small weapon, like a knife? A push that gets her away from him certainly would be reasonable IMO.

Its a slippery slope hahahahaha. A 300 lbs monster. What if its a 100 lbs monster? If a 300 lbs man attacked a 100 lbs woman we would have wanted her to use ant force possible. But the double standard is ridiculous. Why can't ya defend yourself without being a monster? Why can't be innocent until he is actually guilty?

I'm sure it is safe to assume that she approached him in an aggressive, threatening manner prior to the assault? He could have been scared, right? Depends on the details of the situation. There are certainly situations in which it is reasonable to shoot anyone, man or woman, given a reasonable person could believe the shooters life was in danger. Like, say in a road rage incident where the other driver stalked you, exited their vehicle, ran up to yours and threatened your life while exhibiting menacing anti-social behavior. This doesn't seem to be such a case on the surface though. Do you believe it is? Given your clear intentions, I think this thread should be moved to PPP where we can discuss the laws and politics you're alluding to if you wish to continue along these lines.
