    This is what @NRA has wrought. A person can mistakenly enter another person's apartment, kull that person in "self-defense," and then claim she was"defending get castle." (Especially if she's white and the person she shot is black.)https://twitter.com/shannonrwatts/status/1178730294498619392 …

    BREAKING: A judge has ruled a jury can consider the Castle Doctrine - basically a Stand Your Ground law - during deliberations to determine whether a Texas woman should be punished for entering the wrong apartment and fatally shooting an unarmed Black man. https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2019/09/30/jury-consider-castle-doctrine-amber-guyger-murder-trial/ …

        And, more importantly even than race, if she's a cop.

        This means there is no situation in which black people have a right to life, liberty and property, in the presence of whites. A person can walk in your home shoot you and say “I thought I was defending my home” in his house,

        In states with "castle doctrine" self-defense laws, apparently so.

        Replying to @gorskon @NRA

        What the fuck? The US should take a look at countries like Finland to see how guns can be legal but minimise this kind of insanity. Mostly it comes down to the idea that guns are for hunting, not for people to kill each other. Crazy concept right?

        Remember, Texas is also a place where it’s ok, after dark, to shoot someone you believe has taken your property–a defense successfully used in the Ezekiel Gilbert case.https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/amp/Jury-acquits-escort-shooter-4581027.php …
