An mass shooting event occurred yesterday at Bondi Beach in Australia, by a father-and-son killing team. As usual, the event has led to a tsunami of poorly-reasoned opinionating on social media—and most of that I’ll leave to the dummies to wrestle with. In THIS show we’ll focus on the LEGAL DYNAMICS of defense against this kind of mass attack. What is legally permissible, and why? How is this legal different from a more traditional deadly-force self-defense scenario, and what additional tactical options does it make lawful that otherwise might be criminal? And MORE! All of this will, of course, be from the legal perspective of AMERICAN use-of-force law, as if the event had tragically occurred in the United States rather than Australia.
