Sir!!

Reseach continues, because things have changed since I was in school. Keep in mind, if you cold-cock him or drill him, the jury instruction will be the same:

"Even before the new laws, claims of self-defense were often accepted, said Gary Kleck, who teaches criminology at Florida State University.

"In the South," he said, "they more or less give the benefit of the doubt to the alleged victim's account."

Now, I understand that NYT is not gospel, and will try to reseach the issue in Free Pineland, or as close I can get, but your doubt has been validated. Must be that Robin Sage training.

and futher:

print this and keep it in your ruck if you find yourself in similar circumstances, but the best course is to avoid the circumstance.

and for you Lone Star bubbas:

and finally, for the instant case, with a kicker for your sandbox types:

TR, if you need further, AL or CSB are in Dixie, or we will have to discuss a retainer, and I just HATE that.
