“It's time to question laws that senselessly expand the concept of self-defense and sow dangerous conflict in our neighborhoods. These laws try to fix something that was never broken. There has always been a legal defense for using deadly force if - and the 'if' is important - if no safe retreat is available. But we must examine laws that take this further by eliminating the common sense and age-old requirement that people who feel threatened have a duty to retreat, outside their home, if they can do so safely.”
![“[Self-defense is] justly called the primary law of nature, so…” quote by William Blackstone](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/cac/william-blackstone-14453_defense_self-defense-is-justly-called-the-primar_1672420.jpg)
