re: #1 Second Amendment Renegation

As long as he claims he was attacked and there’s no disproof of that, the law as it stands will protect him.

(3) A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.

Unless the ‘reasonably’ there gets interpreted very differently than it did in other similar cases, and as long as his pursuit isn’t judged to be illegal, though I have no clue why it would be.
