And then we all grabbed a gun and actually killed people.
Oh wait.
And no. There is no self defense claim when you instigated it.
Sure there is. If you are in a fist fight, and the other guy draws a gun and shoots. Now you can fire back in self defense. And the law in the state he was in doesn't have any mention of "not if you instigate it". You are welcome to your opinion, but it doesn't change the law, and really has nothing to do with my comment. Your motivations are a bit like Kyle, you just needed to be seen making a statement, even if it had nothing to do with the comment you replied to.
That sounds a lot like you instigated a fight and had ragrets when the "find out" part came around. If self defense is two people justified for shooting at each other then we live in insane land and nothing matters anymore because you can just walk into a store and self defense yourself some groceries. "I just wanted groceries and the clerk was mean to me when I tried to leave!"
Except of fucking course not because we don't live in insane land and all the self defense laws have exceptions for committing crime. Like instigating a fight specifically to murder someone.
If you want to continue off the point I made that the crime was that he was there with a gun at all... Show some data on the exception to the law in the state this happened. And I don't know what land you live in. Seems pretty insane to spend more than other countries on Healthcare and get worse results... or that the law protects businesses right to sell more tickets than there are seats on a plane. And of course rental car reservations. Government for the people by the people protecting businesses instead of the people.

Right so you think you can actually self defense yourself some groceries. Good luck with that, get your affairs in order before you do it because you won't be getting bail on an armed robbery charge with felony murder.
I see. So you have no data, just spouting off. I change my mind when presented with data/sources. But that was never your goal.
It doesn't take data to see they weren't legalizing murder.
