Unfortunately seems we are barely arguing anymore
I never said it’s a magic get out of jail free card. I said it’s my opinion that they had the legal right to do what they did based on my chosen understanding of the second amendment. My OPINION.
Why didn’t anyone use it as a defense?
1) don’t know if anyone who was rioting has any clue this exists
2) I fully agree that ultimately a court will be deciding.
I think it has a zero percent chance of winning in court ( perhaps even less as it might tick off the judge / jury and make the penalty worse)
So yeah it wouldn’t be sound legal advice to tell someone to use this as a defense
Doesn’t change my opinion that it is true though
I think politically if a court agreed to such a thing it would unleash who knows what.
So I think In summary
We are arguing whether this is the correct interpretation of the second amendment.
But if it is
We both agree using it here would be an application of the law, not the law itself.
We both agree it would end up in court
We both agree the defendant would lose.
So what are we arguing about?
