"You can in fact castle doctrine your landlord if they try to break in and kick your ass" is probably not a message most owners of news agencies want propagated.

Mao did nothing wrong ;)

Wait until I give the mongols AR15s and they hear about this steppe tribe discrimination.

I love that you've rationalized a violent landlord parasite who kicked in someone's door on the same moral plane as someone who is late on their rent and has a gun to defend themselves.

You're also bafflingly (willingly) ignorant about tenant and occupancy laws. You just hate the poor lol.

The most simple and common scenario would be assuming he was just the guest of the tenet, not some bizarre scenario you've concocted.

Even if RI was among the states and countries where there is some degree of duty to retreat even in cases of a home invasion but of course there actually has to be a safe route of retreat which I'm guessing was not the case here.

No, he wasn't. He was an authorized guest of the person on the lease and legally there is no distinction between a guest living there or the person on the lease when it comes to most legal matters such as home defense or domestic violence.

Why are you determined to find fault with a guy who was subject to an illegal eviction and breaking and entering from an armed intruder?

There is generally no duty to retreat from your home and even if there was explain to us how one would safely retreat from the average slummy 3 story apartment against an armed group of people.

The problem is that enforcement of gun laws by both practice and design exists to enable vigilantes and punish "undesirables" who are often the people who actually need guns to defend themselves like this man.

Like why aren't any of the vigilantes being charged but the one guy who fought for his life is?

So the guy would have been defenseless against an armed group of vigilantes at best trying to throw him out into the street in winter.

Given his landlord and vigilantes tried to kick in his door and kill or throw him out in winter, it sounds like he is exactly the person who should have a gun.
