Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
wow ... so much for self defence ... i probably would have done the same as the man .. it would be interesting to know what that judge that sentenced him would do in the same situation thoughI broke my spoon on the viagra sundae. -
Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
I believe the law looks at what measure of force could have been used other than his vehicle to subdue the little shit!
Bad luck tho but in similar circumstances, if i was attacked in my car i would have done the same thing!

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
IT'S AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE. There have been cases over here of Burglars taking homeowners to court for assualt. Get the fuck out of my house!! if you're not in it I won't be able to hit you!!Comment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
and this is where the law gets it SO WRONG is that we have to think rationally and use a lesser or equivalent level of force against someone who is irrational and chose to bring whatever he thought he could have to kick your ass.
sometimes I really dont know what people are ingesting when they write down the law

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
I want to know what he was excpected to have done? What was the proper choice of a action? From the sound of it, it sounded like he just punched the gas to get away and ran the guy over accidentally as part of the process....not like he punch the gas, accelerated, hit the hand breake, pulled a sweet 180...sat there revving the engine...VROOOOM VROOOOM....squeeled the tires, smoke flying everywhere....CHARGE! and......THUMP!
people carrier??? is that what they are calling a car over there?Father-of-eight Armstrong accelerated the people carrier into his attacker, leaving him seriously injured.It's never too late to become the person you always thought you would be.Comment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
im sorry but this makes no sense... he never wielded his car... he punched on the gas to get away from the 22-year old shit that broke his window. i mean wtf?"You were entitled to be angry. You were entitled to be affronted. But you were not entitled to respond by wielding your vehicle as a weapon at him in the way you did."
if anything, its the car manufacturers fault for making the cars a "weapon""pics or stfu" - R.I.P. Steve "Jibgolly" JamesComment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
To play devil's advocate, take a look at this:
That sounds a little different than just peeling out and accidentally mowing someone down. Kinda sounds more like chasing him down. The truth, though, is that none of us know what really happened beyond a couple sentences in a news story.The victim suffered a broken leg and collar bone and punctured lung and spent over six weeks in hospital after Armstrong mounted the pavement in his vehicle and drove it into him as he stood in nearby bushes.
Self-defense gives you permission to exert whatever force you need to exert to extricate yourself from a situation, and probably extends to the force necessary to ensure that you're not going to be in danger again seconds later. It doesn't give you permission to go too far beyond that, though -- if it reaches a point where it looks like it has less to do with your safety and more with vengeance, you lose that "self-defense" protection for your actions. Being accosted doesn't grant you a roving commission to be a thug yourself.
Again, just playing devil's advocate here. The reality is that we don't know the whole story and if the reporter gave the whole story, it might not have made for such an interesting article. Food for thought.Comment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
Toasty has a point. Read the article carefully, guys.
It's hard to tell since the article was apparently written by a confused moron, but it sounds like the kid busted the guy's window and then beat like hell out of there...and the old man got pissed, floored it, and intercepted the kid at the bushes off the road.
It's one thing to run someone over when they're on your car hood pumping bullets into your winshield; it's another to deliberately chase someone down as they're retreating after the episode of danger has clearly already ended (even if that person was an asshole).mixes: www.waxdj.com/miroslavComment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
i'm pretty sure in texas it's still legal to shoot someone that trespasses on your property. this might be a little excessive, but in my opinion people everywhere are turning into a bunch of pussy-wussies and it makes me sick, you should be able to defend yourself in any situation if it involves you getting hurt or killed. there needs to be some sort of wild-west type laws brought back imo.Fly? Yes. Land? No!Comment

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
a friend asked a cop once what to do if someone broke into his house. the cop told him to shoot to kill, but when the police arrived to tell them ' i tried to end the threat.' it can put you in a bad situation if you tell them you tried to kill said person.Don't let anyone drive you crazy when you know it's in walking distance.

Re: Would you do the same in this situation?
It sounds like Armstrong wasn't in immediate danger from his harrasser so there's no self-defence case. I mean, if you got mugged, and you hunted down the mugger and took matters into your own hand, you'll be held accountable too. Or you could wear lycra tights and a bat mask.
