Could Self-Defense Be Legal in Baltimore?

The DA didn't think so. Jury Acquits Suspect of Double Homicide, Finding he Acted in Self-Defense - Baltimore Witness

The shooting occurred while Daye was working as a security guard at an auto repair shop. According to defense arguments, three men entered the shop and shot one of Daye’s co-workers. Daye responded by opening fire, ultimately killing the intruders.

In Oklahoma the cops would take this guy out for a beer. In Florida the sheriff of the county would have a press conference and say it is a wonderful thing that people can defend themselves, and that criminals should go elsewhere. In Maryland they put him on trial for murder.

The jury delivered a not guilty verdict.

While this verdict was handed down at the end of last month, it slipped thru my news filters until it was highlighted by Keep And Bear Arms.

  1. In what dystopian world does an auto shop need an armed guard? Ah, Baltimore, so I’ll take “Cities Destroyed by Democrats” for $200.

    1. I was sort of thinking the same thing, but at this point, what goes on in the blue cities no longer surprises me. Pisses me off, yes. Surprises me, no.
