You are wrong on all aspects in certain situations.Originally Posted by TransAxle
- Fear of life isn't needed, just great bodily harm.
- You do not need to retreat in certain areas
- You are allowed to defend yourself and property...
The old law said that you DO NOT have the duty to retreat if you were in your house, place of business, or vehicle, but were supposed to if in other public places.
Now, you do not have the duty to retreat in those public places.

Your saying i am completely wrong? vVVVVOriginally Posted by Ruiner
Force likely to cause death or great bodily harm is justified in self-defense only if a person reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm.
Thats why most people say in fear for there life...becuase great bodily harm to me comes down to near death.
Also we are not talking about homes nad such....everyone knows that. I am talking on the street.
