So you killed someone? And to answer your question I really don't know. It could be considered self defense but even then you could probably get charged for manslaughter. Again, I really don't know.
[QUOTE="Shottayouth13-"]So you killed someone? And to answer your question I really don't know. It could be considered self defense but even then you could probably get charged for manslaughter. Again, I really don't know. i didn't. this is something that just happened to a friend. and yeah i feel exactly the same way about it.
You'd def get arrested and questioned. If it's ruled that it isn't self defense or that your actions were too extreme in relation to the circumstances than it's very illegal and your going to jail for a long time.
Based on circumstances, courts can rule either way. if the person had reason to believe a person was going to hurt them, and it's very clear it was out of self defense, then you're OK. If you just start shooting blindly, you might be in trouble. It's all circumstantial, really. Nobody can say for sure.

yeah, she has a bullet wound in her leg completely legal as long as the threat was still present, if the threat was gone, but then you went back for revenge, that's illegal. out of curiosity, what on earth happened, and why are you asking OT about it, rather than a lawyer?

can anyone tell me whether or not it's legal to kill someone with a bullet who was threatening your life first and did shoot you first?rise2genocide
Wise choice in choosing this forum for your query, TC.
To answer your question, it is completely legal to kill someone with a bullet if that person shot you first. Just don't try killing that person with a bullet shot from a gun.
The best choice for you would be to either hand-throw a bullet (preferably a .45 caliber) at the person in question...you'll have to throw it really hard. Or, if you have a weak throwing arm, instead opt to strategically place a bullet in your assailant's favorite beverage.

law might very in your state, for instance if someone pulled a gun on you, and say they even stole your wallet, but say when they're running off and no longer pose a threat to your life shooting them then might be illegal at that point, that's when shooting someone who has you at gunpoint who wants you to hand over your wallet may be justifiable since you're refusal to give your belongings over puts your life at risk, so... then again I read how people get screwed and let off for various things, it's not quite a double standard as just utterly arbitrary, for instance a woman shot a man dead locally for spitting on her and she walked free, another person went to prison years ago because even though the person was initially a threat to the shooters life, the shooter put too many bullets into them
