An act of self defense

  An act of self defense

By Khalil Flowers

  Do you agree with Minnesota’s laws regarding the use of deadly force in self-defense? Explain why. If you disagree with them, discuss what you would want to change?

    I do agree with Minnesota's laws regarding the use of deadly force in self -defense solely for the reason of knowing how complexe self laws are in any state. The use of deadly force be used as a last resort not the first option you consider. The laws of self defense are always complexe and it's hard to know what was on purpose or just for self defense. In the article Does Minnesota Have a Stand Your Ground Law? It says that “Minnesota law imposes a “duty to retreat,” which means that if a person feels threatened, he or she may only use deadly force as a last resort”.

    I say that there are many different obstacles that might come up in the case of self-defense events, “Self-defense laws – whether stand your ground, duty to retreat, or castle doctrine – are complex and difficult to understand. Self-defense laws frequently arise in cases involving charges of murder, attempted murder, manslaughter, domestic violence, assault, and weapons violations”, I think it should always be a last resort except during curtin moments.
