Copyright: © 2021 Law of Self Defense News/Q&A
This week saw the sentencing of former police officer Tou Thao over the in-custody death of #GeorgeFloyd on May 25, 2020. Thao is the final of the four police officers charged and persecuted over Floyd's death.
Every facet of these persecutions has been little more than a legal travesty and racial lynching, given the utter lack of evidence that any of these officers caused Floyd's death given the many other lethal factors driving Floyd's demise.
These lethal factors included Floyd's 3x fatal level of fentanyl in his blood, his just having swallowed meth tablets to avoid discovery, his substantially enlarged heart, his severe hypertension, his 70% occluded coronary arteries, and his own decision to violently fight lawful arrest for 10 minutes.
In the context of these undisputed facts no reasonable jury could have concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that the officers involved in Floyd's arrest caused his death--so the jury's verdicts of guilty can only be unreasonable, and a legal travesty.
And THAT is the topic of this episode of the Law of Self Defense!

Imagine this—you’re a non-commissioned officer in the US military, having served two prior tours in Afghanistan and having received military weapons training.
You’re living with your wife in Metro Denver, a region plagued by car theft.
At 11:20 PM on July 5 your wife observes two people stealing your car from in front of your home, and she calls 911.
You retrieve a pistol and go outside to identify the thieves, following them on foot as they drive away unsuccessful in their car theft attempt.
About a block from your home they shoot at you, and you shoot back, killing one of the thieves, and wounding another.
The legal result? You’re charged with murder and attempted murder and looking at a mandatory life sentence in prison.
How can this happen? That’s what we’ll discuss in today’s Law of Self Defense Show!

In today's show Attorney Andrew Branca begins a reading of part 7 of 7 of the 2010 US Supreme Court decision of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association (NYSRPA) v. Bruen. This part 6 of the reading of Bruen covers the second half of the dissenting opinion written by Justice Breyer, with Justices Kagan and Sotomayor concurring.
Bruen is the seminal 2022 Supreme Court decision written by the Justice Clarence Thomas extending Heller's (2008) holding that the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms is an individual right to apply to FEDERAL government, as well as McDonald's (2010) holding that the 2A right also applied to the STATES, to hold that the 2A also protected the right to keep and bear arms outside the home, in public.
As a result, the New York state law requiring a showing a special need for public carry of a firearm that was challenged by NYSRPA was ruled unconstitutional, thus rendering essentially all "may issue" concealed carry regimes unconstitutional.
This reading of Bruen is the entirety of the decision, both majority by Justice Clarence Thomas, joined by Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Gorsuch, as well as concurrences by Justices Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Alito,and also the dissent by Justice Breyer, joined by Justices Sotomayor and Kagan. (Bruen was a 6 to 3 decision.)
As a result, this very lengthy reading is divided into seven manageable portions--the first four of which are Justice Thomas' majority opinion.
As a result, this very lengthy reading is divided into seven manageable portions--the first four of which are Justice Thomas' majority opinion.
Prior this starting this reading of Bruen I had already read the 2008 US Supreme Court majority decision of Heller (which found that the 2A was an INDIVIDUAL right with respect ot the FEDERAL government), as well as the 2010 US Supreme Court decision of McDonald (which found that the 2A also applied to the STATES).

In today's show Attorney Andrew Branca begins a reading of part 2 of 2 of the 2010 US Supreme Court decision of McDonald v. Chicago.
McDonald is the seminal 2010 Supreme Court decision written by the Justice Samuel Alito extending the finding that the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms is an individual right to apply to the STATES and not merely to the Federal government (extending the finding of the 2008 Heller decision against the Federal government, written by Justice Scalia, which I read here).
As a result, the then-existing laws of Chicago and nearby Oak Park effectively prohibiting the ownership by American citizens of handguns in the home was deemed unconstitutional.
Prior this reading of McDonald I had already read the 2008 US Supreme Court majority decision of Heller, and I will follow McDonald with a reading of the 2022 decision of New York State Rifle & Pistol Assoc. v. Bruen (2022) (entire decision, 7-part reading), which applies the Second Amendment outside the home.
