[QUOTE="SMS, post: 940350, member: 42"] The article does not state his neighbor was being physically attacked at the time he drew his weapon....only that later, when he himself was being attacked, he drew it [I]again[/I] and fired. And I did catch the jury rendered a verdict...and I'm convinced he was acting in self defense...but also saying that this could have played out differently, perhaps, if the DA was not able to put a kernel of a doubt into people's heads that he was the aggressor. Using it as a lessons-learned that fits into the frequent discussion we have on this board about when to draw your weapon...to me this is an example of how things can go wrong if you draw your weapon in an attempt to prevent a fist fight, stop a fist fight, or get yourself out of a fist fight.
