Here is how the State of Arizona describes its deadly force law,<br /><br />"One would be justified in threatening or using physical<br />force against another person when and to the extent a<br />reasonable person in that position would believe that<br />physical force is immediately necessary to protect oneself<br />against the other person's use or attempted use of unlawful<br />physical force. (A.R.S. § 13-404) . One would be justified<br />in using deadly physical force when a reasonable person<br />in that position would believe that deadly physical force is<br />immediately necessary to protect oneself against the other<br />person's use or attempted use of unlawful deadly physical<br />force. (A.R.S. § 13-405).<br />It is important to understand that the law permits a<br />measured self-defense. Generally, one can only use the<br />force necessary to resist the unlawful force. One can resist<br />unlawful physical force with physical force. One can<br />resist unlawful deadly force with deadly force."<br /><br />"One cannot provoke a fight and then act in self-defense,<br />unless (a) he first withdraws from the fight or clearly<br />communicate his intent to withdraw, but reasonably believes<br />he cannot safely withdraw, and (b) the other person<br />nevertheless continues or attempts to use unlawful physical<br />or deadly force against him. A.R.S. § 13-404(B)(3)(a) & (b)."<br /><br />http://www.azdps.gov/Services/Concealed_Weapons/documents/instructors_ccw_legal.pdf<br /><br /> The document also has some pretty good situational examples making the intent of the law more understandable. ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-90108463115605311922014-07-04T17:41:48.225+02:002014-07-04T17:41:48.225+02:00Where's your source for saying "severe be...Where's your source for saying "severe beating?"<br />A fight will only get as bad as the weapons available to the combatants. <br />Yes, I also blame WalMart. If they are going to allow deadly weapons in their stores, they need armed security with orders to shoot anyone using a gun in an aggressive manner. It's not their job to decide self defense issues, but to stop anyone prepared to shoot one of their customers.

And yet, other than one or two sporadic reports, you don't hear about so many shootings at Kmart stores, or Target, or Costco. Is it because Walmart sells guns and ammo, and those others don't? As far as I can tell, Target never did. Kmart stopped selling guns and ammo in 2009. Costco in 2006. It doesn't help that Walmart often has banks inside their stores, making them even more of a target.<br /> Is Walmart's pro-gun stance a factor? Does it make people feel justified in taking their guns to Walmart and settling disputes in a violent manner?"<br /><br />And then of course there is his signature statement at the end of each post,<br /><br /> "Walmart.

The one group that has been pressuring businesses to ban permit holders from carrying in their venues really hasn't had a whole lot of success. Especially since those that lawfully carry firearms for self defense are notably more law abiding than the general public.<br /><br />"After lawsuits?"<br /><br /> Lawsuit for what? Pretty much all of the events Baldr lists involve either people unlawfully carrying or the police. He even lists people robbing Walmart at gunpoint. How does suing Walmart for being the victim of a crime make sense?<br /><br />"After a few dead? After customers stop going there because they fear for their lives? How many arguments are there in WalMart stores worldwide everyday? That will add up to quite a few deaths."<br /><br /> These questions sort of go together. Walmart currently has just under 5,000 retail stores in the US. Walmart banning lawfully carried firearms would have very little impact. Baldr's site lists three shootings by permit holders this year so far. One of which was justifiable self defense, it being the shooting listed above. <br /> Keep in mind that Baldr blames Walmart for crimes that also happen in their parking lot. Not sure how a sign will affect that. In fact, businesses cant legally ban legally carried guns in their parking lots in Minnesota. That is part of the states carry permit law.ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-12974513074526466722014-06-30T17:00:00.740+02:002014-06-30T17:00:00.740+02:00Regardless of the determination of the authorities...Regardless of the determination of the authorities, I say the real criminal here is the guy with the gun who rather than backing down and walking away while he could have, felt so empowered by the fact that he had a gun if the argument turned against him, not to mention all the talk about standing your're ground against scumbags, that he did the manly thing and didn't give an inch.
