Eyo where are the Second Amendment advocates on this shit? Shouldn't the NRA be all up in this lawsuit as a legal use of force in a "stand your ground" state? I mean we've seen that you can follow someone around then assault them and then shoot them in self defense and that's fine. You can lure folks into your garage by leaving it open and then shoot them and that's fine too. So is arguing with your girlfriends ex-husband, getting your gun, continuing to argue, and then shooting him on your front porch.
"Stand your ground" laws continue to mystify and confuse me in general because there are very few circumstances where a gun owner
can't retreat or otherwise avoid confrontation, yet they largely receive fairly expansive protections for their use of firearms.
Curious why similar protections weren't extended to William Wilson. The NC law doesn't give gun owners a duty to retreat, so if they were actually trying to run him and his girlfriend off the road - which is definitely a life threatening risk, or a risk of serious personal injury - then it stands to reason that NC's fairly expansive "stand your ground" law would have covered this use of a firearm.
It touches upon broader issues including race, but I'm still curious where the gun rights advocates are on this case. They usually come out of the woodwork to support other shooters like Kyle Rittenhouse, but maybe they're just doing something white that Wilson can't do.
