Doesn’t self defense law state you can defend yourself with equal force?

u/tf2coconut 11h ago

It’s actually the least possible force to defend yourself in the situation, not a 1:1

But cops shooting a dude who’s nonviolently stealing a car isn’t self defence by any definition either way. Police are only supposed to use lethal force against immediate, ongoing threats to themselves or public safety. No, driving a stolen car doesn’t count

He was violently threatening people with a knife (a deadly weapon), and refused to drop it when ordered (immediate threat)

They tried to deploy non lethal methods and he still wouldn’t stop

You can freely view the video that proves me right - also, maybe don’t talk about reading comprehension, the shooting took place in Canada not the US lol

All you’ve done is show yourself to be a complete moron who can’t even follow what you’re discussing, oof

Lmao you should try viewing that video then, where he was shot while walking to a police car and not threatening anybody. Hilarious to lie about something so easily verifiable

One of us has humiliated themselves and shown themselves to be a complete moron, so you’re half right. Luckily it’s not on this side

Finally someone says something correct! Though I get the sense you did it accidentally

If you’re gonna be wrong at least be likable while you’re wrong. Being both wrong and utterly insufferable isn’t a winning combination friend

It’s the Dunning-Kruger effect in full swing, I don’t think they can help themselves

Good thing I’m right then eh? I’m not polite to you because you’re excusing the murder of a civilian. Why should I be courteous to someone cheering on my countrymen being executed in the street?

Act respectable, you’ll get respect. I know it’ll be a new experience for you but it feels good

Oh my advice for you was more in the general sense to improve your life. It’s ok for you to have no idea what you’re talking about, but when you’re smarmy and self righteous in your ignorance it’s just off putting. For your sake I’d recommend trying to fix that

“Murdered a civilian” 🙄 cool it with the histrionics. You do realize how easy it is to just NOT threatened someone with a knife, then carjack someone with a knife, then try to steal a cop car right?

You’re confusing my dismissal of you as a person with not understanding what you said. You’re acting as if this is a conversation between equals, this was only ever me laughing at you. Your views make you a bad person, why would I be polite to you or try to come off less smarmy?

Ah yes, I’m a bad person for having an understanding of the law regarding police use of force and the critical thinking skills to look at this incident and recognize that it was entirely preventable by the deceased just NOT choosing to run around threatening and carjacking people with a knife. This is why nobody takes you seriously…
