- jeffbee 2y ago"Scandal-plagued" is the mildest way I can think of to describe this individual. https://www.npr.org/2021/10/06/1043651361/oath-keepers-california-sheriff-chad-bianco-january-6-us-capitol https://www.npr.org/2021/10/06/1043651361/oath-keepers-calif...
- melonballer 2y agoUnder AB-1333, deadly force would no longer be legally justified: • in defense of a habitation or property • if the victim could have safely retreated, but only if outside their residence • if excessive force is used, beyond what was deemed necessary for defense (https://www.veeto.app/bill/1980230 https://www.veeto.app/bill/1980230) So while it does have implications for when self-defense is justified, and does introduce ambiguous language which could make it more difficult for victims to claim self defense, it does not criminalize self-defense, per se.
