It's Time To Question Laws That Senselessly Expand The Concept Of Self-defense And Sow Dangerous Conflict In Our Neighborhoods. These Laws Try To Fix Something That Was Never Broken. There Has Always Been A Legal Defense For Using Deadly Force If - And The 'if' Is Important - If No Safe Retreat Is Available. But We Must Examine Laws That Take This Further By Eliminating The Common Sense And Age-old Requirement That People Who Feel Threatened Have A Duty To Retreat, Outside Their Home, If They Can Do So Safely.
