Self defence? What can you do?

[Nasheed]

What about legalising tasers as an alternate to guns?
Like when we were kids and there was always that one kid who had a taser and would zap randoms for a lol

What kind of kids did you hang out with? Were these tasers specifically occupied by the hoodlums of Breakfast Point?

confused at this

Yes I mistook you for another member who used to post here and would always be jealous and on my case because I had a Brazilian girlfriend.

Big deal! Brazilian women are just like any other women, except they have an amazing ass which you have to slap on a particular angle to make it jiggle!

Actually we have spoken about the Brazil B a few years ago.
But wasn’t jealous of anything. You just had some things to work through. Normal stuff.

I personally think legalise handguns but not AK 47s

Don't be racist bro, I'd ban handguns and keep AKs. At least you can see it coming lol

 

[HD and Ink]

I'm interested in firearms but I don't want them in dumb fuckers hands.

Yep, smart man bro......oh no can't believe I said that (joking)

So no to Souths supporters having them.

Only if they can spell "gun" and have more than 3 teeth.

This one is not self defense.. the accused mate stole chips from the victims mates. The punch should have been thrown at his own mate. Who steals chips

When someone comes at you, no fault of your own, is it best to turn the other cheek and let them have another crack at you until you pass out? Or can you defend yourself enough to get yourself out of the situation? Can you trade blow for blow with them until they retreat? Or someone gets the better of the exchange? Or if it’s self defence do you get a hall pass to basically teach them a lesson, make them pay.

if someone broke into your house? They have a weapon and you dont know who they are or what their intention? Are you allowed to choke them out and dismember them? Or do you have to live in fear, scream so hopefully they run away? Maybe help them carry out your equipment they intend to steal?

The legal test for self defence is both subjective and objective being that you feared for your life and well being and that a reasonable person in your situation would have believed the same and your actions in response were reasonable... in practice, try to avoid the fight... If you can't, do what you have to do to protect yourself... Consult with a good lawyer before cooperating with the Police

if someone throws a punch at you, you can trade with one back, an equal reply but if you get the better of the exchange you’re considered the attacker??.

 

[Memberberries]

I had an issue that I was charged with a serious assault charge for defending myself. Even the police facts sheet acknowledged that I acted in self defence..I even called 000 before I was attacked.. I was completely in the right….BUT it was considered that my self defence was excessive and caused undue injury to my attacker Wtf!!! They say if someone throws a punch at you, you can trade with one back, an equal reply but if you get the better of the exchange you’re considered the attacker??.

you can’t even defend yourself, it’s impossible in hindsight to judge what was excessive, in the situation you You don’t know who your attacker is or their capability, what is their intention. You need to end their attack as soon as possible with as few strikes as possible. You don’t have the time to assess if they are a good bloke or not.

But then police come after me. Cost me Mega $$$$

it’s horrible for me if I attack someone and cause GBH.
A friend of mine caused GBH to someone when he was 16.
He’s a big intimidating guy, when he finally went to court over it at 18 years old, the judge gave him the maximum penalty and charged him as an adult for the crime.

that’s really one thing that sucks about being big and naturally strong.
It’s taken deeply into consideration with giving you a greater charge.

Not my field but reasonableness cannot be judged on a 'one punch copped, one punch thrown' basis... It would have to be as long as the assailant poses a threat and what that means can differ between different magistrates and judges and juries

a punch for a punch is acceptable but no more ..

It’s impossible for a magistrate or judge to determine what was reasonable. If you are in the situation, you just dont know what your attacker is planning, who they are, their capability. So to retrospectively try and judge what is a reasonable response is impossible in my view. You won’t know if the attacker is armed, don’t know if this is a criminal or a priest , dont know if they are on drugs ..there are so so so many what ifs.. you can’t later say oh this guy is a nice guy, he was t going to kill you..

Calling the cops was your biggest mistake to be honest

a friend of mine in similar situation , he try’s to talk to police thinking he can resolve the situation. Police ignore 95% of his story, all they take from it was you were there and you threw a punch and charged him. Ignored his whole version about what actually happened

 

[Memberberries]

yeah I called them before anything happened so they could come take care of this mug. But before they arrived the bloke takes a swing at me.

I had left the scene before they arrived. So the other bloke tells a bullshit story and they come after me.

You never tal


Yep.. I didn’t talk to police but I called them before anything happened.

never talk to them even if you are in the right

The part I put in bold. Is the part where you fucked up.
After fucking the guy up in self defence you left the scene?
If you had no intention to try and cause serious harm you should of stuck around until police arrived?
