Negative. I am a meat popsicle.

Pulling the trigger without identifying the target; even had they identified, it probably would not qualify as self defense under law…
I am not well versed in Illinois law, but it does have a “castle doctrine”:
In Illinois, the criteria for using force under the Castle Doctrine are outlined in the Illinois Compiled Statutes, specifically 720 ILCS 5/7-1 and 720 ILCS 5/7-2.
These statutes detail when force is legally justified in defense of a dwelling. Force is permitted when an individual reasonably believes it is necessary to prevent or stop an unlawful entry or attack on their home. The term “reasonably believes” requires that the perceived threat be justifiable to an average person in similar circumstances.
Deadly force has stricter criteria. It is allowed only if one reasonably believes it is necessary to prevent imminent death, great bodily harm, or to stop a forcible felony like burglary, robbery, or assault. The law distinguishes between minor trespasses and significant threats to life or safety.

IMO, a 5060 Ti 16gb is among the best values at $430.


I was a juror on a federal felony case that took longer to choose a foreman than we took to reach a verdict.
This is something that is technically illegal but actually trivial; someone(s) decided to try to treat it more seriously and had to be argued into not guilty.


Not a lawyer but my reading of it is that, in other context, this fact pattern could theoretically lead to a conviction. It is hard to imagine a sandwich causing actual harm, though, so it is probably unethical to have even brought charges knowing it is such bullshit.


They do. Some people post their radio frequency their car.
You could publish your phone number right on your car. See how it goes.
Thanks. I was merely recalling my experiences as a contractor.
As I stated elsewhere in this thread, it appears this was at least manslaughter if not outright murder. Discharging a gun into an opaque door should not qualify as self-defense unless the (alleged) assailants were damned well shooting first.
From the available facts, it was not a clean shoot by any stretch. Im not familiar enough with Indiana law to know how that would play out though.
